Sehgal again, was: APIS and the case of exploding genitals
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2002 1:12 am
The ideas of Dr. Sehgal, though bound & titled as "revolutionary" are, in
the opinions of well-experienced homeopaths quite a lot less than
revolutionary (thank Godz) and in fact, mostly seem to be just "plain old"
homeopathy. (more will follow along these lines in subsequent post)
Where Dr. Sehgal's personal approach becomes something incredible is when it
is (as is so often the case) trivialized by students who seem not to have
grasped the entirety (#1) of basic "plain old" homeopathy and (#2) of how to
integrate such an approach (along with any number of other
Dr. Sehgal, R. Sankaran, Dr. Taylor, and David Little are all Very Well
Experienced homeopaths who have completely internalized the basics of
homeopathy; who have practiced "unrevolutionized" homeopathy for Many Years
&/or grown up in multi-generational homeopathic families with obvious
advantage in learning; contrast that situation with the situation at hand,
where a person claiming to have learned "Sehgal Method" concurrently with
learning of homeopathic basics.. PRIOR to any possibility of understanding
homeopathy IN PRACTICE... is propounding what appear to be unfounded
trivializations of said "method."
This is quite similar to the situation of a number of people who have become
followers of the Verspoor "spin" on Elmiger's Sequential Therapy. Instead
of seeing "a METHOD" as one possible way of viewing a case, to be used as
appropriate.. h/ir "practice" of "homeopathy" is subsumed by such "method"
and s/he has failed ever to practice homeopathy as it is practiced and
described by all others.
Just as it would be ludicrous for a 2nd year Algebra student to instruct
others on differential calculus... homeopathy should be learned, tested in
practice, and then continued learning should unfold.. including exposure (as
desired) to "revolutionary" (or NOT) ideas/methods/etc.
A person who has LACKS the basic practical understanding of homeopathy PER
SE... LACKS the basis for a context within which to practice (let alone
attempt to teach via www) "advanced methods."
Even a person who HAS a great practical understanding of homeopathy might
have a difficult time accessing the (supposed) validity of rubric selection
"desire for light" in response to a client's line of (apparently, to the
reader) simple information-seeking questions..
