Health is a unity and harmony within the mind, body and spirit which is unique to each person, and is as defined by that person. The level of wellness or health is, in part, determined by the ability to deal with and defend against stress. Health is determined by physiological, psychological, socio-cultural, spiritual, and developmental stage variables.

Dr. Girish Gupta is an outstanding Homoeopathic physician of International fame. He received G.H.M.S. degree (Graduate in Homoeopathic Medicine and Surgery) from State National Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital, Lucknow affiliated to Kanpur University in 1980 - 81.

He has a scientific bent of mind with determination to do "something Significant" and redefine Homoeopathy on modern scientific lines. To materialize his dream, he worked in the Department of Virology, Central Drug Research Institute (C.D.R.I.), Lucknow as a Research Co - Investigator in a scheme entitled "Screening of Homoeopathic Drugs in Animal and Human Viruses" sponsored by the Central Council for Research in Homoeopathy (C.C.R.H.), Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Govt. of India from 1982-1985. Simultaneously he also started his private practice on Oct. 2nd, 1982 in a small clinic cum residence at Lucknow. Later the clinic was renamed as "Gaurang Clinic and Centre for Homoeopathic Research" (GCCHR). To fulfill the main aim of this centre "To bridge the gaps in Homoeopathy by Research and Development and bring Homoeopathy into the scientific mainstream", Dr. Gupta built up a team of physicians, Pathologists and Medical Mycologist and several paramedical associates in collaboration with the scientists. Presently GCCHR has fully equipped Medical Mycology and Pathology Laboratories, Computerized Repertorisation Section and Training Division. GCCHR is currently engaged in CLINICAL, DIAGNOSTICS, REPERTORISATION, TRAINING, RESEARCH and PUBLICATION in the field of Homoeopathy.

He remained Honorary Lecturer of Pathology and Bacteriology in State Mohan Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital, Lucknow from 1983 - 1985. He is Honorary Homoeopathic Medical Officer, State Bank of India. He is also Authorized Medical Specialist in Central Institute of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants (CIMAP), Lucknow. He is column writer in two Hindi News Dailies; "Rashtriya Sahara" and "Hindustan". He was Chief Editor of "Asian Homoeopathic Journal", a quarterly journal published by Asian Homoeopathic Medical League (AHML) from 1994 - 1998. He is also publishing an in - house newsletter entitled Jigyasa' since 1996 for creating mass awareness about recent researches in the field of Homoeopathy. His talks on health have been broadcast through All India Radio and interviews have been telecast on Lucknow Doordarshan.

A direct fall out of his deep - rooted interest in research and an endeavor to contribute Homoeopathy resulted in flood of prizes, awards and honorary degrees.
