Sehgal on the Totality

[Lisa Barrett]

Dear David,

Thank you for the quote from Dr. Sehgal's book on totality. Yes we are
aware as is Dr. Sehgal that this is not the totality and NOT the Essence. I
think you need to stop quoting out of context and truly understand what he
is trying to say. This is his experience of totality prescribers. This
type of prescribing happens all the time. There are a lot of homoeopaths
practicing who believe that this is what is meant (as per Sehgal's
description, not his own understanding), of totality. Sehgal is not
misrepresenting the teachings of the Organon. At no time does he mention
that this is the teaching of the Organon.

Now to get back to our original discussion regarding acute miasms prehaps
you would answer my question taking into account your quote from aphorism 5
5th edition

"Useful to the physician in assisting him to cure are the particulars of the
most probable exciting cause of the acute disease, as also the most
significant points in the whole history of the chronic disease, to enable
him to discover its fundamental cause, which is generally due to a chronic
miasm."

Thank you
Lisa Barrett

The quotes I use are from Seghal's published writings. They show his
view point. I will not stop quoting what Seghal says about homoeopathic
philosophy and traditional practitioners!! I have no censors. If ROH says
"homoeopathic philosophy" has totally "forgotten the centre" it will be
quoted. Using ALL the symptoms from "head to toe" is NOT the way a vast
majority of the trained homoeopaths in India or the West work! That YOU say
this "happens all the time" is denigrating to the vast majority of
homoeopathic practitioners. Your speaking about all those from the NCH,
NASH, RSH, CHH, BIH, ENT, HOE, Dynamis School, ETC., as well as all the
DHMS graduates from the Indian Homoeopathic Colleges. Who do you think you
are???

Seghal does not follow the teachings of the Organon. He is in the
mind-only school which does NOT use the symptoms of the body and soul that
makes up the disease-Gestalt. Homeopathic philosophy is based on the
Organon and it has NOT "totally forgotten" the center. The true center is
the invisible Wesen (essential nature) of the disease state, which is the
mistuned vital force. Homeopathic education is getting better every day!
You and ROH are spreading mistaken concepts about the way homoeopathy
practiced by MOST trained practitioners. This is in your "mind-only".
This and more has already been done.
