I firmly believe if the whole materia medica as now used could be sunk to the bottom of the sea, it would be all the better for mankind-and all the worse for the fishes.

Seven levels of medicine

 

The levels of medicine evolve in the following order:

 

1. Symptomatic

This is medicine that is treatment only to remove the symptoms. This is the way of western symptomatic medicine.

 

2. Prophylactic

This is the way of preventive medicine. Which is the art of inoculations and vaccines.

 

3. Art of health

This is the study of ways and means to acquire and maintain physical health. The study of nutrition falls under this category.

 

4. Macrobiotic

This is the way of rejuvenescence and longevity through right living habits that include eating, sleeping, thinking, breathing, etc.

 

5. Socio-moral and educational medicine

This medicine establishes health, freedom and justice in society. It goes beyond the health of any one individual to the society as a whole.

 

6. Philosophical medicine

This medicine is directed to thought, mind and judgment.

 

7. The supreme medicine

This is the educational, biological, physiological and dialectical technique. It aims to permit the ailing person to discover all by himself the constitution of life and the world. It cures, decidedly, not only all the diseases of the present and future, but every misfortune too.

 

When we think of illness in this context then there are no incurable diseases. There are only bad living habits and toxins to be removed from the body in order to regain health.

 

The seven levels of medicine and other similar topics are only some of the subjects explained in details in our ongoing seminars presented worldwide. To arrange for a seminar in your area please contact us.
