Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim [Paracelsus].

I am not an expert in medicine, I know something about the essential principles, but apart from that, my knowledge of this leading industrial arm of Western culture is limited.

We must however be honest about the current problems, that the crisis of the Covid has unearthed.

A large portion of our medicinal practice is corrupted by money and earning.

This is a true problem.

Apart from this, there is also a lack of humility in the industry towards other parts of the world, and their traditions.

Let us have a look at it.

When Paracelsus initiated chemichal medicine in the wake of the plagues, he did it roaming around Europe and its vicinity with his ubiquitous broadsword.

Let us be honest about the founder of moderne medicine. He was part scoundrel, drunk and genius.

Where was his genius, and how may we use this today.

His genius lay, in the fact, that he went away from the corruption of the day, that of high minded philosophers proscribing useless medicine at excobiant prices.

Does that ring a bell?

His idea was to look for what worked. He travelled around in the known world, and experimented with alchemical procedures on folk medicine.

That is the core of modern medicine; what works tranferred with chemical procedures in opposition to highminded greedy philosophers.

Heed that calling, again today, and we may just save modern medicine.

G-d bless the will of Paracelsus.
