The ethos of the Society and of the practitioners is Tolle Causam - Seek the Cause. This seeking embraces the whole of the patient; physical, emotional, spiritual and energetic and extends beyond the bounds of material science. The study and treatment of symptoms can only take us so far; deeper than these lie the more fundamental causes which have led to disharmony in the vital dynamis of the individual.
VOCATION
The physician's highest calling, his only calling, is to make sick people healthy - to heal as it is termed.
Samuel Hahnemann.
TRUTH
There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is a proof against all arguments, and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance - that principle is contempt prior to investigation. Herbert Spencer (1820 1903)
George Laurence kept this quotation on his desk at all times.
TRANSPERSONAL EFFECTS
Through focussing the consciousness of the physician on the bodily states of the patient, aided by an organic sample from the latter, information is derived regarding his or her current bodily condition. This enables the physician to diagnose malfunctions and prescribe remedies.
Professor Ervin Laszlo
WHOLENESS
Health is dependent on mindful work to make whole that which is divided.
Carl Upton
WHAT IS THERAPY?
The highest ideal of therapy is to restore health rapidly, gently, permanently; to remove and destroy the whole disease in the shortest, surest, least harmful way, according to clearly comprehensible principles.
Samuel Hahnemann
