What would Hahnemann’s Organon look like if it were written for homeopaths today?
After four years of painstaking work, Jeremy Sherr has created an Adaptive Organon that brings Hahnemann’s teachings into contemporary language while preserving the philosophy and principles at their heart.
In this episode of Strange, Rare, and Peculiar, Jeremy joins Denise and Alastair to share the thinking behind this remarkable project, from reexamining the meaning of familiar aphorisms to updating examples, clarifying terminology, and uncovering connections throughout the text.
Along the way, they explore the four fundamental principles of homeopathy, the meaning of cure, the search for the simillimum, the complexities of dose and potency, and Jeremy’s fascinating project of assigning a remedy to every aphorism. And yes, they discuss what happened to Hahnemann’s famous roasted pigeons!
It’s a lively, thoughtful conversation about making the depth and wisdom of the Organon more accessible to a new generation of homeopaths.
