<< I was thinking about what I wrote before I went to sleep last night,
and it
occured to me that I should have said medical adivce, not homeopathic
advice. I was too tierd to get up and fix it. You are definitely right
that not everyone knows what it is, and hence couldn't ask directly about
it. >>

I guess that because of the mind frame of the Western culture,
homeopathy is considered only a medical science. Even Hahnemann, the
father of modern homeopathy, used the term "Medical Art," perhaps trying
to convey that it was more than just another medical practice. In the
West we don't have a concept like say, "Ayurveda," which means "Science
of Life," and encompasses more than the "medical" aspect of life. It is
a more holistic and true way of expressing what Ayurveda focuses on.
Unfortunately, we don't have a better term to convey what homeopathy is
in a more holistic manner. Not that it does not treat (and cure) people
with severe diseases, but its focus is not only the "removal of
disease," but the fulfilment of the individual.

<< I'm assuming you LIKE being here and have things to say. Joyce has
made it clear that you are welcome, and merely asked you to think about
your style. I haven't
insinuated that you shouldn't post, and it wouldn't be my place to do so
anyway. >>

My last posts were for clarity's sake only. I go to the yahoo site every
now and then, and check the posts or threads that catch my attention. I
don't have time to follow all of them. I had more time around Chritmas,
but now I don't.

I like it better if I feel I can participate, of course... ;-)
