    The document contrasts the allopathic and homeopathic concepts of disease. [1] Allopathic physicians only consider the observable physical effects of disease and treat those, while homeopathic philosophy sees disease as a dynamic imbalance of the vital force that affects the whole person. [2] Homeopaths like Hahnemann and Kent see the real disease as prior to physical symptoms, involving a disorder of the will and understanding, so treatment must address the whole sick individual rather than just physical symptoms. [3] The goal of the homeopathic physician is to restore order to the interior of the person, not just remove physical manifestations of disease.

    THE SICK

    LECTURE NO.-1 BY DR J.T. KENT


    IN HIS BOOK, LECTURES ON HOMOEOPATHIC PHILOSOPHY
    Allopathic concept of disease

     The Allopathic physicians deal only with the ultimates,they observer only results of the
    disease, and either deny or have no knowledge of the real nature of the sick man .
     They characterize the changes in the tissues as the disease and all there is of the disease, its
    beginnings and the end and it has nothing prior to it.
     They accept nothing but what can be felt by the fingers and seen with the eyes or
    otherwise observed through the senses, aided by improved instruments
     They notes down the pathological results of the disease
     They have material idea of the disease
     If they have material idea regarding the disease they will have material idea regarding the
    means of cure.
     If the pt. Is suffering from haemorrhoids the removal of hemorrhoids by surgery would be
    considered as cure. Disappearance of skin eruption by local applications would be
    considered as cure etc.
    Homoeopathic concept of sick
    Dr Hahnemann
     Disease is the primarily dynamicaly derangement of our spirit like vital principle
    in sensation and functions ,which reflects outwardly trough the various organs
    of the body as the perceptible signs and symptoms, the totality of which
    constitutes the disease.
     As per the Homoeopathic philosophy disease is not seperated from the living
    whole and from its animating vital force,though it is of so subtle in character.
     The man is sick as a whole not only his part or organ.
     So the Whole man to be restored to the health not only his part or organ.
    Homoeopathic concept of sick
    Dr Kent
     The real sick man is prior to the sick body. The real sick man is the disordered interior economy i.e. The
    disordered will and understanding conjoined
     It is the man that is sick and to be restored to health, not his body, not the Organon, not the tissue
     The tissues or organs could not become sick unless something prior to them had been deranged and so make
    them sick
     The tissue changes or organic changes or pathological changes are the result or ultimates or the end products of
    the sickness
     It is the sole duty of the physician to heal the sick. It is not his sole duty to heal the results of sickness, but the
    sickness iitself
     Man should be treated from cause to effects and not from the effects to the cause. If treated from cause to
    effects, remains cured permanently .if mere effects are removed, then cause is there and it will manifest from
    other weak parts or organs
     When the man himself has been restored to the health, there will be restored harmony in the tissues and in the
    activities
     So the sole duty of the physician is to put in order the interior of the economy i.e. The will and understanding
    conjoined.
    Foot note to Aph.no - 1

     “The physician’s Mission is not however, to construct so called systems, by


    interviewing empty speculations and hypotheses concerning the internal essential
    nature of the vital processes and the mode in which diseases originate in an
    invisible interior of the organism “
     So our duty is not to theorize the probable cause of the disease, theorizing is just
    waste of time and talent. ( Theoretic medicine)
