When you have more experience using homoeopathy, seeing the miracles, listening to the spiritual changes that occur under treatment, perhaps you will come to believe.

I was once very much a materialist, only believing what I could see or what another materialist (conventional scientist) told me.

Over the years, homoeopathy taught me to believe in a universal intelligence, THROUGH MY EXPERIENCE AS A PRACTITIONER. I would have considered myself an atheist before - perhaps even I would go so far as to say a believer in nothing at all. Now I sense the world around me quite differently.

Through my patients, I have seen premonition at work, intuition, profound spiritual crisis - I cannot believe that our lives can be reduced to a series of chemical reactions. There is more to us than that - homoeoman, can you not feel it? Have you never been truly in love, felt great despair about your existance, been moved by beauty, been repelled by an evil act, felt overwhelming terror when faced with something that will not harm you - even just had a moment where you felt connected to something greater than yourself?

Depression is more than a sickness of the brain - it is a sickness of the soul. The soul, the mind, the heart, the body - of the vital force.

We are all free to believe whatever we want - in theory. In truth, most of us believe whatever our disease causes us to believe - our basic delusion, as Sankaran puts it.

You will not find answers by looking at the smallest parts of things - you will only find them by looking at the whole, the connections, the web that binds things together.
