    I would restrict myself to Science of Homoeopathy And it is very true that trends are changing and changing for the betterment of Health care purpose.
    Homoeopathy is been said to be the second most practiced medical science after the conventional medical practice (published by WHO)
    Homoeopathy needs to uplift the awareness programs in the urban & rural set-ups and Govt. needs to read & re-read the quotes given by visionaries of India namely Mahatma Gandhiji, Rabindranath Tagoreji, Swami Vivekanandji and many more and finally think of implementing it at National level.

Fr. Britto Joseph S.J. - Empowering Health Care

Meet my first Guru who reignited my latent passion in nature consonant medicine. Fr. M. Britto Joseph s.j. a Jesuit Priest, belonging to the Madurai Province, is credited with evangelizing and proselytizing Naturopathy and Homoeopathy in India. Affordable and safe health-care has always been a need and it still continues to be a necessity for the majority of the population (middle-class and rural) in India, a country where  major share of one’s earning is spent on housing and food, savings are meager, often liquidated by medical and hospitalization expenses.  Families often end up in huge debt.   A country that enjoys a rich heritage medicine system in the form of Ayurveda and Naturopathy is today a victim of lifestyle diseases that is only burdening the existing inadequate health-care facilities in India.   It is against this background we can come to appreciate the value of Fr.

If countries like USA which has a stringent food and drug administration get millions of patients who suffer adverse drug reaction then the scale of adverse drug reaction in a populous country like India, where controls are  lax and reporting tardy.

Right Labor ≅ Right Exercise ≅ Right Vocation ≅ Right Health

"I have no more than twenty acres of ground," he replied, "the whole of which I cultivate myself with the help of my children; and our labor keeps off from us the three great evils - boredom, vice, and want."  ~ Voltaire Life and labour are synonymous. But we are trading our wealth for labour. People who do not do physical labour are considered privileged and those who have no option but engage in physical labour are considered unlucky. What we need to be aware of is that too much labour kills and that too little labour also kills. Each person should find according to his constitution how much labour and what kind of labour is best suited for his temperament. We need to choose the right labour –for our body, mind and soul... The health of our cells depends not just on the nutrition we get from our diet, the stimulation it gets from various form of exercise but also from the intellectual and spiritual nourishment it gets as part of   the process of its...
