Every year, on the morning of 15th August, I find myself pausing before the day begins, not just to watch the tricolour rise against the sky, but to feel the weight and wonder of the journey that flag represents. Independence Day is not only a commemoration of a political milestone; it is a mirror in which each of us can see the story of our own field, our own vocation, and the way it has grown in the sunlight of freedom.
Homeopathy at the Crossroads
Reconciling Tradition and Transformation in the Age of Scientific Scrutiny
In the evolving landscape of global medicine, few healing systems have sustained both relevance and resistance as resiliently as homeopathy. From its genesis in the 18th century as a precise, principle-driven therapeutic art, to its widespread acceptance and controversy in the 21st century, homeopathy has constantly inhabited a space between devotion and doubt, tradition and transition, spirit and science.

cmboger.com is dedicated to the legacy of Dr. Cyrus Maxwell Boger, a prominent figure in the field of homeopathy. It primarily focuses on the book “Boger’s Legacy” by Dr. Anil Singhal, which explores Dr. Boger’s life, philosophy, and contributions to homeopathy.
Scaffolding of Life
I am sure most of us have, at some point, paused to observe a building under construction — whether in a bustling city street or a quiet residential lane. Often, even before the walls reach shoulder height, there appears a delicate yet purposeful network of bamboo poles, wooden planks, or metallic bars surrounding the structure. This temporary arrangement — known as scaffolding — may seem peripheral or even unsightly at first glance. But in truth, it is what allows the building to rise, to take shape, to find its form and strength.
A Personal Offering to My Community
Why I Review Homeopathy Books
Writing a book is an act of dedication. Publishing it is an act of courage. As someone who has spent over thirty-six years in the field of homeopathy — balancing the quiet discipline of clinical work with the responsibilities of teaching — I have come to deeply respect every homeopath who attempts to contribute to our profession through the written word.
Building a Life in Private Practice
Last year, I received a thoughtful message from Dr. E.S. Khan of Kolkata—he had acquired a copy of my book Boger’s Legacy, and shared his insights with warmth and clarity. I was touched by his words, and grateful that the essence of Boger’s work had resonated with him.
Remedy Axes: A Dynamic Framework for Homeopathic Study
In medical textbooks, certain “axes” are mentioned to represent complex, interconnected physiological systems that function through a coordinated cascade of signals between multiple organs or tissues. These axes are not merely anatomical alignments but conceptual frameworks that help in understanding regulatory pathways—such as hormonal feedback loops, neuroendocrine responses, or organ-to-organ communication.
Air India Ahmedabad plane crashed – Just 2.3 km from Runway
A routine international flight transformed into an unspeakable horror—Air India Flight AI 171, a Boeing 787‑8 Dreamliner carrying 242 souls, plunged to Earth barely 2.3 km from departure, crashing into the BJ Medical College hostel mess in the Meghani Nagar district.

A Homeopath’s Reflection on a Forgotten Phrase from Honigberger’s Time
Sometimes, a single phrase in an old book can open the doors of history wider than volumes of modern commentary. I recently experienced this when reading a line from the memoirs of Dr. Johann Martin Honigberger, a European physician and early proponent of homeopathy who traveled extensively in India in the early 19th century. His book, published in 1852, contains many fascinating observations, but there was one line that stopped me in my tracks:
Walking the Path of Hahnemann with Dignity
Walking the Path of Hahnemann with Dignity : A Tribute to the Master and a Message to the Next Generation
Tomorrow, the world will mark 270 years since the birth of Dr. Samuel Hahnemann. For most, he is the founder of homeopathy. For me, he is much more. He is the reason I have survived as a doctor, lived with dignity, and walked a path that tested me again and again—and yet, never broke me.
Tonight, as I sit quietly and reflect on this occasion, I feel it is not enough to simply garland his photo or speak in admiration. I must speak my truth. I must say aloud what I’ve lived in silence for decades. And perhaps, somewhere, a young homeopath will read this and feel seen, heard, and strengthened.
