I would like to wish IPRH readers a very happy and prosperous New Year 2018. The year 2017 has been an important year for Homeopathy. In this year we witnessed some of the best research studies so far, some of the strongest allegations, mutually agreed international projects and most importantly political turmoil at international level. This has proven that the challenges are rising proportionally to our growth. The challenge and criticism can only be tackled if we aim to work with self-consciousness, acceptability and close association.
At this point in time, our approach must not be centred to improve the popularity of homeopathy alone, but to enhance its reach to every segment of society with proven scientificity. We need research! The research that is oriented to report the actual facts, and not the positive findings only. Our success stories need to be translated into validated evidence. We need to reach to practitioners and motivated them to come out of their shells and contribute towards the success of homeopathy by contributing evidence.
At every front, be it research, practice or teaching we apply four basic rules – baseline teaching, experience, experimentation and intuition. Over the decades we have strengthened our teaching and experience but grossly neglected the research part, therefore, there is a gap between the teaching, preaching, practising and experimentation. We are still taught to believe our science as a religion and not a scientific battleground where we must fight and win.
The time is not far when we would be answerable to the community at large and also to ourselves. We must be well prepared because “The Adventure has Begun” and we must “Take a Leap of Faith and Begin This Wondrous New Year by Believing” and take the road less travelled to explore the unexplored, to see the unseen, to discover the hidden, and to validate Homeopathy as a Plausible Science.
