Excerpt from A Compend of the Principles of Homœopathy: As Taught by Hahnemann, and Verified by a Century of Clinical Application Hahnemann's Organon is the great text-book of the homœopathic school. It contains philosophical conceptions and practical directions for the establishment of a true science of therapeutics, and all genuine progress towards this goal is in the direction pointed out in that work. To fix its principles clearly in the mind of the student, to faithfully apply them in practice, is the special duty and high privilege of Homœopathy. The more this is done, the more will this masterly book become a veritable mountain of therapeutic light to the practitioner. Hahnemann's teachings, and the therapeutic edifice erected by the homœopathic school. are based upon two distinct factors. On the one hand, upon facts of observation and experiment obtained by strict adherence to the inductive methods of research, facts that can thus be verified at all times; and, on the other hand, upon new ideas resulting from the exercise of deductive reasoning, ideas belonging possibly to a larger and higher realm, and to some extent beyond the acceptance of modern scientific thought, but nevertheless capable of great power in achieving curative results.
