Dear Members
This is the way out of Homeopathy, because the defining principles are negated.
My views on the way forward in Homeopathy for the seeker are:
1] Study Homeopathy from its initial stage,
which I would define as the time of Hahnemann, Boenninghausen, Jahr, up to about 1850.
Practise that and see for yourself. Whenever questions arise, go back to the Organon, or the Chronic diseases and find the answers.
2] Once one is fully acquainted with the rules and principles and has studied the MMP and the Chronic diseases, and has used the possibilities outlined there to the full extent, then
there may be the time to look into the later homeopaths such as Hering and Lippe.
Study there works and be critical to the word, it is unwise to mix unreliable things with what you have found to be reliable before.
3] Once that is done, one may have a look into the writings of Boger, Kent, Allen, to see and compare again.
4] Then at last, the more contemporary exponents like Scholten, Sankaran, Mazi, Watson etc. can be looked at.
It is important to have the basics accurate.
This is what one always can return to.
Commentaries can never replace the Originals.
It is much easier to start from the well and follow the developments through the generations, than to try to get a grip on what’s thought to be homeopathy today, and from there to work the way back.
This all may sound pathetic to many, who look for the quick answer, the new idea, but without knowing what Homeopathy is, HOW CAN ONE ASSESS THE VALUE OF ‘’NEW IDEAS’’????
I want to leave it here, as other duties are calling.
Take care, Hans
