Hahnemann's letter of thanks

 HAHNEMANN’S LETTERS OF THANKS

To Dr.Stapf: Dear Colleague,

I can bear much joy and sorrow, but I was hardly able to stand the surprise of so many, and such strong proofs of the kindness and affection of my pupils and friends, with which was overwhelmed on the 10th of August. Now that I gradually regain my mental equilibrium and ponderingly examine each single present which was presented to me with such kindness of heart, I wonder more and more, one the large number of rich and handsome presents, elegantly executed in good taste,. and at the expenditure of much labour with such kind intention. I have not deserved it. These are gifts of generosity. delicacy and excessive gratitude, whose value I fully appreciate. May those who originated the idea of bestowing this great joy upon me, live long and prosper.

I beg of you to kindly communicate these feeble utterances of mine to those concerned, and to keep a large portion for yourself.

Convey my cordial greetings and appreciation to our friends Rummel, Gross, Franz and Gerstorff. I remain your devoted,

S. HAHNEMANN.

Cothen, 18th August, 1829.

To Dr. STapf:

Dearest friend, Your have rendered an immense service to me by your appropriately arranged collection and publication of my Lesser Medical Writings, amplified by those very necessary notes, and if I may be so vain as top consider my work in that light, you have rendered a service to humanity; but I think you have almost given too high an estimate of me in your excellent preface. In short, I am very much beholden to you. Would you believe it? It is only within the last few days that, owing to an accumulation of work, I have been able, properly to look through your kind well-planned, and well-executed undertaking.

I do not know how I am still able top get through such a quantity of work. But what we do so willingly, only fatigues us till bedtime, and in the morning, thank God, there is a completely return to strength.

I must close to-day with kindest regards from my family to you, your wife and family, and also from me.

Your friend,

S. HAHNEMANN.

Cothen, 28th September, 1829

Treat the perceptable totality,, patient will be cured.

 

*Voice of Hahnemann* (aphorism 6&8)

"Takes note of nothing in every individual disease, *except the changes in the health of the body and of the mind"*

 "  he notices only the deviations from the former healthy state of the now diseased individual, which are felt by the patient himself, remarked by those around him and observed by the physician"

 The homeopath is  interested in concrete facts of the current state. Changes in health.

 *Signs and Symptoms*

 "All these perceptible signs represent the disease in its whole extent, that is, together they form the true and only conceivable portrait of the disease."

 The concrete changes in health that are felt by the patient and are observed by others are the things we need to know. *NO metaphors or INTERPRETATIONS are Allowed.* aphorism 6

நோய் அறிகுறிகள் அகற்றப்படும்போது நோய் நீக்கப்படும்.

 எதுவும் பின்னால் விடப்படவில்லை.

*Treat the Disease,  the patient will be cured*

 "இப்போது நோய்வாய்ப்பட்ட நபரின்,  முன்னாள் ஆரோக்கியமான நிலையில் இருந்து விலகல்களை மட்டுமே அவர் கவனிக்கிறார், அவை நோயாளியால் உணரப்படுகின்றன, அவரைச் சுற்றியுள்ளவர்களால் குறிப்பிடப்படுகின்றன மற்றும் மருத்துவரால் கவனிக்கப்படுகின்றன"

*Mahatma Gandhi on Vaccination*

 

*Mahatma Gandhi on Vaccination*

- *Vaccination is a barbarous practice,* and it is one of the most fatal of all the delusions current in our time, not to be found even among the so-called savage races of the world.

- Its supporters are not content with its adoption by those who have no objection to it, but seek to impose it with the aid of penal laws and rigorous punishments on all people alike.

- No one can say that small-pox will necessarily attack those who have not been vaccinated; for many cases have been observed of unvaccinated people being free from its attack.

- From the fact that some people who are not vaccinated do get the disease, we cannot, of course, conclude that they would have been immune if only they had got themselves vaccinated.

- vaccination is a very dirty process, for the serum which is introduced into the human body includes not only that of the cow, but also of the actual small-pox patient.

- As has been well said, cowards die a living death, and our craze for vaccination is solely due to the fear of death or disfigurement by small-pox.

- I cannot also help feeling that vaccination is a violation of the dictates of religion and morality.

- The drinking of the blood of even dead animals is looked upon with horror even by habitual meat-eaters. Yet, what is vaccination but the taking in of the poisoned blood of an innocent living animal? Better far were it for God-fearing men that they should a thousand times become the victims of small-pox and even die a terrible death than that they should be guilty of such an act of sacrilege.

- Several of the most thoughtful men in England have laboriously investigated the manifold evils of vaccination, and an Anti-Vaccination Society has also been formed there. The members of this society have declared open war against vaccination, and many have even gone to gaol for this cause. Their objections to vaccination are briefly as follows: 

(1) The preparation of the vaccine from the udder of cows or calves entails untold suffering on thousands of innocent creatures, and this cannot possibly be justified by any gains resulting from vaccination. 

(2) Vaccination, instead of doing good, works considerable mischief by giving rise to many new diseases. Even its advocates cannot deny that, after its introduction, many new diseases have come into being. 

(3) The vaccine that is prepared from the blood of a small-pox patient is likely to contain and transmit the germs of all the several diseases that he may be suffering from. 

(4) There is no guarantee that small-pox will not attack the vaccinated. Dr. Jenner, the inventor of vaccination, originally supposed that perfect immunity could be secured by a single injection on a single arm; but when it was found to fail, it was asserted that vaccination on both the arms would serve the purpose; and when even this proved ineffectual, it came to be held that both the arms should be vaccinated at more than one place, and that it should also be renewed once in seven years. Finally, the period of immunity has further been reduced to three years! All this clearly shows that doctors themselves have no definite views on the matter. The truth is, as we have already said, that there is no saying that small-pox will not attack the vaccinated, or that all cases of immunity must needs be due to vaccination. 

(5) The vaccine is a filthy substance, and it is foolish to expect that one kind of filth can be removed by another.

By these and similar arguments, this society has already produced a large volume of public opinion against vaccination. In a certain town, for instance, a large proportion of the people refuse to be vaccinated, and yet statistics prove that they are singularly free from disease. The fact of the matter is that it is only the self-interest of doctors that stands in the way of the abolition of this inhuman practice, for the fear of losing the large incomes that they at present derive from this source blinds them to the countless evils which it brings. There are, however, a few doctors who recognise these evils and who are determined opponents of vaccination.

Those who are conscientious objectors to vaccination should, of course, have the courage to face all penalties or persecutions to which they may be subjected by law, and stand alone, if need be, against the whole world, in defence of their conviction. Those who object to it merely on the grounds of health should acquire a complete mastery of the subject, and should be able to convince others of the correctness of their views, and convert them into adopting those views in practice. But those who have neither definite views on the subject nor courage enough to stand up for their convictions should no doubt obey the laws of the state, and shape their conduct in deference to the opinions and practices of the world around them.
