Good morning everyone and welcome once again to wacky Wednesday, it's been 27 years since
I have been practicing classical holistic homeopathy, and there have been certain questions
that are asked to me recurrently, one of them is, "Hay Dr.Priya, you are an Indian do
you practice Ayurveda?
second is "Hay Dr.Priya does homeopathy come from India?" so I decided why not do
a wacky Wednesday to explain these to queries to you, so you see dear friends Homeopathy
originated in Germany in the 18th Century, it was discovered by a Physician by Dr.Samuel
Christian Hahnemann, and therefore it got popularized in the western globe and later
it even came to the Commonwealth countries.
In India, around the same time, there was a French Doctor by the name of Dr. Dr Martin
Honigberger, Who treated Maharaja of Punjab, Maharaja Ranjit Singh, and then he went to
Calcutta and started practicing there and helped a lot of cholera Patients so was called
Cholera Doctor, It's the British who popularized Homeopathy all over India, sometimes even
at the cost of Ayurveda, Yes, they were our Invaders But the essential philosophy of Homeopathy,
is very similar, to the essential philosophy of India and Ayurveda, so Homeopathy, which
was brought in by the invaders took roots in India and has flourished and today some
of the best Homeopaths of the world come from India, Yes, so the essential philosophy of
Homeopathy believes that any disturbance or dis-ease starts at the level of the spirit
then percolates to the level of the Mind and then gets expressed at the level of the body
as signs and symptoms, And it is the skill of a Homeopathic Doctor to decipher signs
and symptoms and come out with a perfect remedy, Yes, when Homeopathy started getting popularized
there were two kids of people who popularized homeopathy there were the lay people who started
studying Homeopathy as a Hobby and started many charitable clinics and they did a lot
of good work, but, then there were physician main stream Doctors or mainstream Allopaths,
who got converted to homeopathy and started practicing Homeopathy, this credit goes to
Dr. Mahendra lal Sircar, from Kolkatta, He popularized Homeopathy among the main stream
Doctors.
So somewhere around 1973, the Government of India established the Central Council of Homeopathy,
to look into the matters regarding Homeopathy, As time passed homeopathy became more and
more popular somewhere in 1983 the Government of India again started University degree courses
in Homeopathy, these courses were unique, in the sense very integrated they brought
the clinical knowledge to homeopathy, yes, these Degrees "BHMS" which is what I have,
Bachelor of Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery.
Now what does this course tell, so in the 5 and a half year university degree course
we do everything from Anatomy to physiology to general medicine to Gynecology to surgery.
Yes, in being the Bachelor of Homeopathic medicine and surgery you study everything
that an MBBS doctor studies only in the 5th year where they study their Pharmacopeia,
we study our Materia medica.
Now, therefore, we are medically trained homeopaths, but even today there are medically non-trained
homeopaths, what's the difference between the two?
The knowledge of homeopathy is the same for both, but a medically trained homeopath has
further clinical knowledge, in the sense, his diagnostic skills are better, then the
medically non-trained homeopath, therefore in the western side of the globe, a lot of
countries have now made it compulsory for medically non-trained homeopaths to either
practice with the mainstream doctor general practitioner or with the medically trained
homeopaths, so that there are no diagnostic errors, now what do you mean by that, Let
me explain further, let's say there is a child Asthmatic child who comes to you, the oxygen
level of Asthma children, drop very fast, sometimes, you have to pick up these clues,
if a doctor is medically trained, He is able to pick it up and act quickly, to do something
to increase dilation of the bronchi, so that the air goes in and the oxygen level goes
up, see there is no fight between this pathy and that pathy, sometimes you do need in emergency
you do need mainstream medicine, there is nothing wrong in it, there is no fight among
traditional medicines, so you see traditional Chinese medicine comes from China, they use
acupuncture acupressure as well, traditional Ayurveda comes from India which uses the Indian
herbs, unani comes from the middle east and Jamu comes from Indonesia, from India also
comes another system of medicine the Siddha system of medicines, many at times people
feel there is a fight between all this, homeopathy from Germany Ayurveda from India.
TCM No It is not like that, it is the patient who is most important, Sometimes patients
tell me that they are not able to have the very very bitter TCM or Ayurvedic medicines,
they would prefer me to give them the homeopathic medicines, because you all know how homeopathic
medicines are sweet, and they are very easy to carry around, but they would prefer the
Ayurvedic massage or the TCM acupuncture, and I am absolutely ok with that, it is together
we can work towards the betterment of our patient, can't we?
Yes, that is the whole idea, because all traditional medicines believe in the trinity of the mind,
body and in the spirit, yes, they believe that the disease is only when there is an
imbalance in the Trinity, and a doctor or a physician does not need to take over the
human system, the human system is fully capable of rectifying itself, traditional medicine
believes in supporting the human system to help it on its way to recovery.
Now traditional doctor are not miracle people, so people, when they come to traditional doctor,
expect miracle, that's not right, if your illness has taken 3 years to develop you at
least need to be patient for 3 months for you to see start seeing any recovery, yes,
at the same time, you also need to be perseverant in your treatment.
Two key things which are needed in homeopathy, patience, and perseverance only then you will
start seeing results, of course, it's even valid in acute medicine.
Homeopathy has great results in even things like fever, sour throat, right now I am having
one, and I am taking my own medicine, I can even tell you, which one, I am taking Hepar
Sulph yes, now these medicines can give quick effect, the fever can come down as fast as
a Panadol would bring in, and I am not joking if the illness has taken 3 days to start you
can give me 3 3hours to show you recovery, of course, that also means you also do lateral
things, you have to manage your diet, you have to do other complementary things to benefit
you if you have a sour throat and you go out and eat an ice cream and say "Hay Dr.Priya
your medicine not giving me relief," well, I always say I am not a magician, we both
work together the patient and i to help the patient recover, yes, so it is 50% you 50%me,
together we are going to work towards recovery.
Now, what is difference between the homeopathy and other traditional medicine a little bit
on that, other traditional medicines use the herbs in their essential form, which means
let's say for instance in TCM they use Ginseng root, the Ginseng root is used as it is, we
also have homeopathic Ginseng, the homeopathic Ginseng looks nothing like a Ginseng root,
in fact it is either in a liquid form or those little sweet globules form, that is because,
in homeopathy, we take the Ginseng root, and energize it is via process which is known
as a potentization succussion or trituration that's the topic in itself, will address some
other time.Similarly Ayurveda let's say they use onion for which I had done a wacky Wednesday
last time, well in homeopathy also we use onion as one of our medicine and it is called
allium cepa and it is used to treat exactly the symptoms a raw onion when you chop produces,
your eyes water, your nose leaks, kind of like flu, well allium cepa if one of the best
medicines for flu, but the medicine is again its energized form, you take a bottle of allium
cepa, or the pills, you have nothing to do with the smell of the onion, because it is
all in an energized potentized, that's the classical difference between all other traditional
medicines, and homeopathy, in that sense, because of this energization homeopathy is
taken in very little pill forms very small quantities, lot of times the patient a whole
lot of questions case taking of one and half hours and then i give a teeny weeny bottle
of medicine patients look at me say only this much, well it is energy packed bottle of medicine
and therefore it requires a lot of good care and handling to retain energy and again that's
the topic by itself.
Which i will address some other time.
So i think i have clearly explain to you all how where homeopathy started and how where
it settled in India.
if you are having any questions further related to homeopathy, do reach out to us and we will
be more than happy to answer them, on that sweet note, here's wishing you health and
happiness.
thank you.
