Greetings!

With the Da Vinci Code phenomenon continuing to sweep the world, and the newly-translated Gospel of Judas following in its wake, we are being presented with a timely demonstration of the power of beliefs. Did Jesus and Mary Magdalene marry and have children? I have no idea, but the fact that so many people believe this ‘fiction’ to be true leaves the christian church with a major dent in its dogma that no amount of solemn proclamations from the cardinals can repair.

Meanwhile, here in the U.K. the homeopathic community has been battered by a renewed assault from the medical establishment, with articles in The Lancet and declarations from high-profile doctors attempting to quash the upsurge of interest and demand in all things alternative.

The parallels between the orthodoxies of church and medicine are numerous, and they are both displaying the typical behaviours of a group whose power is waning because the beliefs they uphold have been seriously undermined.

  • The Hahnemann Code

    What the Da Vinci episode illustrates beautifully is a point that the homeopathic community have yet to appreciate - namely, that whether homeopathy ‘works’ or ‘doesn’t work’ is largely irrelevant in the battle for the hearts and minds of the public. The author Dan Brown clearly understands this, as he is more than happy for his work to be categorized as ‘fictional’, recognizing that people’s behaviours are influenced by what they believe to be true, which has little to do with so-called ‘reality’.

    Homeopaths, by comparison, have expended an enormous amount of energy trying to ‘prove’ that homeopathy is true, factual, real and that it ‘actually works’, even if they can’t explain the mechanics of it very well. And so far, they have largely failed to convince the masses.

    But wait. Suppose for a minute I was to tell you about a secret healing system that has recently been unearthed in the middle- eastern desert? The scrolls, which are still being translated, describe in great detail how an ancient lost tribe were able to perform miraculous feats of healing employing a little-known technique. Do I have your interest? Well, read on.........

    These ancient miracle-workers were able to determine the energy frequency of every known substance, and they used that knowledge to re-tune the frequencies of the body and mind that had become distorted by disease. Such was the power they had discovered, they entrusted it only to the women-priests, as they knew that the power-hungry males in the tribe might be liable to abuse it.

    This knowledge, of course, was driven underground by the orthodoxy of the day, and the tribe endured centuries of persecution almost to the point of extinction. Then, in Paris in the early 19th century, a brilliant young woman named Melanie emerged as the one whose time had come. Disguised as a man, she travelled across Europe to fulfill her destiny, preparing the ground for the re-birth of this ancient healing science. It was now to be called........homeopathy.
