Unconventional thinking, scientific approach and innovative outlook.. A way to go

If you want to bring a huge change, you have to take a huge step; and learn to think objectively from outside. Dr Rajesh Shah, who was active in teaching in about 15 countries, from 1990 to 1998, decided to move outside of the circle and focus on the challenges and issues within the homeopathic profession. He disconnected himself from the profession, focused on clinical practice and research; concentrated on the challenges the homeopathy system faced.

He realized a need for lateral thinking and started evaluating the science of homeopathy with unconventional standpoint, unbiased perspective, different from the formal learning that he had. A need for a paradigm shift was identified. Homeopathy was found to become increasingly theoretical, unreasonably philosophical and unscientific, in the hands of opportunist teachers especially in the last three decades; who were far from the scientific understanding behind the science of homeopathy.

Scientific research and development alone would take homeopathy to the next level, and the lack of which would lead to the decline recognized Dr Shah.

In brief, starting from scratch, he started investigating the very fundamental principle of homeopathy by fresh experiment; and revalidated the truth of the Law of Similars, the fundamental principle of homeopathy. Further, he re-worked out some homeopathic medicines to examine the application of the principle; and reconfirmed. In the process, several flaws were identified and he corrected them, which had existed for over 150 years.

He realized that the old repertoire of homeopathic medicines prepared 200 years ago would not be enough to address today’s diseases. He started working on many new medicines, improved the processes and systems; introduced newer approaches and methods.

He discovered that the homeopathic medicines available in the market today, are based on some basic data collected 200 years ago; which are almost obsolete now. He realized that a large part of the huge data used by the homeopathic practitioners is of doubtful origin, and the profession is completely unaware of it. This is dangerously serious.
