MONDAY MUSINGS: This was a joke frequently told by one of my mentors in Mumbai, the great Dr Rajan Sankaran. The optics of this statement might lean on controversy, but any humble Physician will admit, that he/ she is still learning on the job, day in & day out. I have been blessed to have learnt from some of the most humble & wise souls to ever practice this phenomenal healing art & science that is known as Homeopathy.
They taught me that key to consistent results is a deeper understanding of disease & cure.
Disease is a state of being, which is expressed as a mental state & as physical symptoms.
Mental state is often expressed as stress. Contrary to popular belief, stress is not an external factor, but rather a manifestation of our perception of external realities/ changes. Each individual has a unique evolution of subsequent physical symptoms in response to this perception. When this portrait of disease emerges, conventional medicine offers the best symptomatic cure available out there, eradicating the symptoms, but not addressing the perception. This is where Homeopathy begs to differ and ergo, provides a deeper cure, a much complete resolution of the symptom syndrome complex both physical & mental, and I would dare say on a genetic & hereditary level as well.
20 years and counting, I have evolved as a practitioner, as a human being, from husband to father of three and God knows how many more roles I will step up to in the future. The reality is just sinking in. I am seeing more & more complex cases, referred by colleague & other medical doctors around the world, and I have nothing but gratitude to be given these opportunities to make a difference in the lives of patients who have lost hope. And also for the opportunity to help me grow with each case I see & learn from. So dear sir, I hope I have many more to go before I get it right. And I pray I continue enjoying what I do.
