To realise the real: An action research in organon of medicine

Abstract

The action research was conducted in the classroom, when it was found that the reality written by Hahnemann in the Organon of Medicine was misinterpreted as in the three different cases of what happens when two dissimilar diseases meet together in the living organism. In the first case, “when two dissimilar diseases equal in strength meet, the new disease is repelled by the older one” is Hahnemann’s original writing, but it was misinterpreted as in the case of third, when they are equal in strength they are form the complex diseases. In reality it is misinterpreted by and misguides the learners of Organon of Medicine. So it is an immediate need to realise the real writing of Hahnemann. The topic was revised again, each one of the aphorisms were comprehended line wise and the learning was evaluated by conducting an open book examination. The results were excellent on observation, 96% of the learners had keenly observed the comprehensive session, 90% of the learners involved in the feed back session with interest and 50% of the learners scored 96% of marks and 48% of the learners scored 94% marks in the open book examination session, thus to realise the real.
