Prof (Dr) Goutam Das

[Abstract: This article includes the clinical understanding of the teaching of our Organon of Medicine & Homoeopathic Philosophy that; whatever it maybe the name of the disease or the pathology, if the patient shows characteristic signs & symptoms of a particular medicine, that act as the specific remedy in that case. What is to be the similia, to restore the sick to health, & how it occurs (i.e. reverse pathology), to cure the case homoeopathically with proper dose, potency and repetition? And what is curable in disease and what is curative in medicines are also expressed in this article.]
