Are we practicing holistic medicine?

[Feras Hakkak]

Dear Dr Rozencwajg,
Thanks for your comments.
Many times we come across a rubric or remedy or a
quality in the patient "by chance". I mean sometimes
although we study much something leads us to the
correct prescription which is not from our knowledge.
If we try to be good and spiritual, this kind of
inspiration helps us more. It gives us a better
understanding.

I hope it is clear now.

Regards,
Feras

Dear Jan,
A completely materialis person can be a good
homoeopath, but if somebody with equal depth of
knowledge has some connection to spiritual worlds, he
will be a better homoeopath. What I'm intending to say
is that in addition to studying and experience, we can
be helped by other methods. It is obvious that it
doesn't rule out the necessity of hard work and
studies.

Best wishes,
Feras

That is intuition.
To me, intuition is the automatic application of knowledge without going
through the reasoning linked to the learning procedure.
In other words I will never be able to find out "by chance" what is
wrong with my car because I never studied that.
OTOH I often know immediately what is wrong with a patient, because I
have been studying and practicing for 26 years now.
Nothing to do with spiritual practice making me a better practitioner.

My apologies to all who might think that I insist heavily and should let
go ang switch to another subject. I do not deny that spiritual
practices, whatever they can be, may have a serious influence, but the
more I practice homeopathy, the more I realise it IS a science based on
logic, research, demonstration of hypothesis, evidence of activity and
cured cases.
Spirituality is an individual choice; science is something that exists,
no matter what.

Dear Feras,
And if this is true, couldn't a agnostic or even an atheist have this
'connection to the spiritual worlds'?
In other words do spirituality and agnostisism or atheism exclude each
other?
I for one, don't think so. Pls check Krishnanmurti on this.
He explains *very clearly* that a religious 'tie' is a obstacle for real
spirituality.
Just an opinion.

i think we need to be open-minded enough to understand that there
are many paths in life. and when speaking of spiritual development or connection,
i hope there is understanding that spirituality is not necessarily attached to
a religion. empathy is a spiritual connection and we use this extensively in
case taking. i heard bob bannon teach once: he spoke of case taking as
learning to meditate with our eyes open. that was his process for teaching
to be as open as we could to another's story.
