Your Digital Pathshala for Homoeopathy
Homoeopathy, unlike the old school of medicine (Allopathy), is based on fixed principles and natural laws. Before Hahnemann, medicine relied heavily on mere experience and opinions without any solid foundation, and even today, conventional medicine accepts that no true principles guide its practice. Allopathy deals only with the visible effects of disease—changes in tissues and … Read more
In the footnote to §7, Hahnemann emphasizes that a truly intelligent physician must first seek to remove any obvious exciting or maintaining causes (causa occasionalis) of an ailment. Often, when such external causes are eliminated, the patient recovers spontaneously without needing further treatment. These states of disturbance are called indispositions, not true diseases.

In this profound lecture, Hahnemann and his followers delve into the metaphysical and dynamic foundation of health, disease, and cure — the concept of the “Simple Substance.” Everything in the universe, from the grossest matter to the most refined spirit, originates from a Supreme Creative Power. This Power, perfect and all-wise, does nothing without a … Read more
In §6, Hahnemann emphasizes that a true physician must be unprejudiced. This means the doctor should not rely on theories, assumptions, or personal beliefs, but must observe the actual signs and symptoms shown by the patient — physically and mentally.

In this section, Hahnemann emphasizes that a good physician must be able to discriminate between conditions that need medical treatment and those that require non-medicinal or surgical intervention. For example, if a patient has a broken bone or needs a tooth removed, they need a surgeon, not a homoeopath. Similarly, if someone is living in … Read more

Stuart Close emphasizes that true disease starts in the internal, immaterial, governing force of the body, often called the vital force. Changes in tissues — such as pus, degeneration, or organ damage — are not the disease itself but results … Read more
In this aphorism, Hahnemann states that in order to cure correctly, a physician must know three essential things: The physician must study the disease thoroughly — not just by its name or pathology, but by observing the totality of symptoms, which are the true reflection of the inner disturbance in the vital force.

In this lecture, Stuart Close strongly emphasizes that in homeopathy, symptoms are the only reliable guide for understanding disease and selecting a remedy. He warns against being distracted by pathological names or tissue changes like cancer or tuberculosis, because those are the results of disease—not the disease itself. The real focus should be on the … Read more
