Hi Kerry,
Thanks for your thoughts, but I don't have time to pursue this any more at present.
Best wishes,
Shannon

Re: 4th, 5th and 6th Edition of the Organon - Education
Hi Kerry,
my experience has been that the Organon is not well taught. Might be read in parts, but usually as part of a philosophy lecture where the mainstay is Vithoulkas or people trained by him like Roy, perhaps some Kent and a lot of regurgitation. Very few homeopaths know the differences and dose forms. As a result many lecturers preach the vitalist theory which is about the curative VF and the need to stimulate the VF, which results in the theory of "repeat the doses", "agg is good as it is bringing out toxins", "homeopathy is safe" etc. the old man would have been pulling his hair out.
regards,
Paul

Thanks for your input Paul.
I really do find it sad that the homeopathic education system seems to
be so flawed and so behind the times. The water system has been
available since 1833 and the LM's since 1921. How much longer will it
take before the educational establishments get up to date?! As I have
said before, the homeopathic community needs to spend time looking
inwards, rather than outwards, to see why it is losing ground against
other systems of healing.
