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.
