SYLLABUS
6. Syllabus for Graded Degree Course.—Following shall be the syllabus for the B.H.M.S. (Graded Degree) Course:—
BIOCHEMISTRY AND PATHOLOGY
(Including Bacteriology and Parasitology)
(1) The teaching of pathology and biochemistry has to be done very cautiously and judiciously, while allopathy associates tin pathology of tissues and bio- chemistry with diseased conditions and considers bacteria a conditioned causes of diseases, homoeo- pathy regards disease as purely a dynamic disturbance of the vital force expressed as altered sensations and functions which may or may not ultimate in gross tissue changes. The tissue changes are not Ihercforc an essential part of the disease per se and are not accordingly in homoeopathy the object of treatment by medication.
Since the discoveries of Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch the medical word has come to believe in the simple dogma "Kill the germs and cure the disease". But subsequent experience has revealed that there is an elusive factor called 'susceptibility' of the patient which is behind infection and actual outbreak of disease. As homoeopathy is mainly concerned with reactions of the human organism to different morbid factors, microbial or otherwise, the role of bacteria or viruses In the production of disease is therefore in homoeopathy quite secondary.
(3) Knowledge of biochemistry is nevertheless necessary for a complete homoeopathic physician, but it is for purposes other than therapeutics such as for diagnosis, prognosis, prevention of disease and general management. Similarly knowledge of patho- logy is necessary for disease determination prognosis, for discrimination between symptoms of the patient and symptoms of the disease and for adjusting the dose and potency of indicated homoeopathic remedy.
(4) Only broad basic training in pathology, fre^ from specialist bias, should however be imparted to students. Teachers of pathology should never lose sight of the fact that they are trainig medical practi- tioners, especially homoeopathic practitioners, and not technicians and specialist in pathology. The living patient, and not the corps, should be the central theme in the teaching of this subject.
(5) The purpose of the instruction in pathology is to enable the student to corelate subjective symptoms with the objective ones, to interpret clinical symptoms and their inter-relationship of the basis of underlying pathology.

PREVENTIVE AND SOCIAL MEDICINE AND FAMILY WELFARE
This subject is of utmost importance, and through- out the period of medical studies the attention of the student should be directed to the importance of pre- ventive medicine and the measures for the promotion of positive health.
His function is not limited merely to prescribing homoeopathic medicines for curative purposes but he has a wider role to play in the community. He has to be well conversant with the national health problems
18 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : EXTRAORDINARY [PART III—SEC. 4Jboth of rural as well as urban areas so that he can be assigned responsibilities to play an effective role not only in the field of curative but also of preventive and social medicine including family welfare.

HOMOEOPATHIC REPERTORY
Homoeopathic materia medica in an encyclopedia of symptoms. No mind can memorise all the symp- toms of all the drugs together with their characteristic gradation. The repertory is an index, a catalogue of the symptoms of the materia medica, neatly arranged in a practical form, and also indicating the relative gradation of drugs, and it greatly, facilitates quick selection of the indicated remedy. It is impossible to practice homoeopathy without the aid of reper- tories, and the best repertory is the fullest.
It is possible to obtain the needed correspondence between drugs and disease conditions in a variety of ways and degrees, and there are therefore different types of repertories, each with its own distinctive advantages in finding the similimum.
Case Taking:
Difficulties of taking a chronic case. Recording of
cases and usefulness of record keeping.
Totality of symptoms, Prescribing symptoms; uncommon, peculiar and characteristic symptoms; general and particular symptoms, eliminating symp- toms and anlysis of the case, uncommon and common symptoms; gradation and evaluation of symptoms ; importance of mental symptoms ; kinds and sources of general symptoms.

PRACTICAL
Students are to repertorisc :
(i) 15 short cases on Kent,
(ii) 10 chronic (long cases on Kent),
(in) 5 cases to be crossed checked.
MEDICINE INCLUDING HOMOEOPATHIC THERAPEUTICS
Homoeopathy has a distinct approach to disease. It recognises disease neither by its prominent symp-1 tonis nor by those of any organ or part of the body. It treats the patient as a whole and the totality of the symptoms exhibited by him represents his disease. Merely the name of the condition from which he suffers most is thus of no significance to a homoeo- path.
The basic principle of homoeopathy that it treats the patient and not his disease should be constantly impressed in the minds of the students, and it is only when this approach is firmly inculcated in them that they will be true homoeopaths.
Medicine is essentially a practical science and can hi more learnt at the bed-side than in a class room. Care should therefore be taken to impart an intensive clinical training to the students during the latter part of their studies in the college.
A. A course of systematic instructions in the principles and practice of Medicine— (Beyond what is covered in the diploma
19course—greater details may be given in the demonstration—lectures regarding the matter covered in the Diploma Course).
B. During the first three months of the clinical period when the students will not be in charge of beds they will be given instruc- tions on elementary methods of clinical examination, including physical signs, the use of common instruments like Stetho- scope, Ophthalmoscope, etc.
C. Instruction In homoeopathic therapeutics!
and prescribing,
D. As a matter of convenience, it is suggested that instruction may be given in the following manner during the two years of clinical course in medicine :—
1. Applied Anatomy & Applied Physiology.
2. Disease of the different systems what is not covered in the Diploma Course and also sucli diseases which are more common with special reference to Homoeopathic therapeutics.
3. Psychological Medicine—-relation between body and mind criteria of normality. Psychi-appaiatus, personality types and traits, dreams, EEG. Mental deficiency— causes, conditions, disorders of old age, psychopathic personality, Mental diseases or organic origin—Psychosomatic con- ception of disorders and Homoeopathy. Psychoneurosis and Psychosis, sympto- matology with special reference to homoeo- pathic therapeutics and Psychotherapy.
4. Dermatology common diseases of skin including leprosy with special reference to homoeopathic therapeutics.
5. Environmental and physical Agents. Effects of attitude | effects of radiation ; effects of motion sickness ; effects of heat and cold; effects of electric inujries ; effect of poisoning by heavy metals, drugs etc. latrogenic diseases.
6. In paediatrics : Emphasis will be laid on—
growth and development.
Developmental factors in health and diseases, prob- lems of the new born and premature infant Birth Order and Mental Development, behaviour problem— emotional behaviour and problems of emotional beha- viour Handicapped children. Common diseases of children with homoeopathic therapeutics.
Note: (1) Throughout the whole period of study, attention of the students should be directed by the teachers of this subject on the importance of preventive aspects of these conditions.
(2) Instruction in these branches of medicine should be directed to the attainment of sufficient knowledge to ensure familiarity with the common conditions, their recognition and treatment.
(3) Every student shall prepare and submit 20
complete case histories.
The written papers in Medicine "hall be distributed
as follows :—
Paper I.—Infectious diseases. Disorders of endo- crine system, diseases of metabolism and deficiency diseases. Diseases of the digestive system and peritoneum. Diseases of blood, spleen and lymph glands, and tropical diseases. Homoeopathic therapeutics.
Paper IT.—Diseases of Locomotor system, diseases of cardiovascular system, diseases of urinogenital system, diseases of children, diseases of nervous system, psychological medicine, common skin diseases, Homoeo- pathic therapeutics,
SURGERY INCLUDING HOMOEOPATHIC THERAPEUTICS
Where medicine fails surgery begins. Affections of external parts requiring mechanical skill properly belong to surgery; but frequently when the injury is so extensive or violent as to evoke dynamic reac- tion in the organism, dynamic treatment with remedies is necessary.
Surgery removes the end products of diseases; but pre and post operative treatment is essential to correct the basic dyscrasia and prevent sequelae or compli- cation.
A large number of conditions being amenable to internal medication in homoeopathy, the scope of the latter is much wider than that of surgery Is to that extent limited. But as supplement to medicine, surgery has a definite place in homoeopathy and should be taught accordingly.
A. A course of sytematic instruction in the
principles of Surgery.
B. During the initial months of the clinical training when the student will not be given charge of beds, they will be given instruc- tions of fundamentals of clinical examina- tion, including physical signs, the use of common instruments, aspesis and antisepsis dressing of wounds etc.
C. Practical instructions in surgical methods
including physio-therapy.

(viii) Ophthalmology.
OBSTETRICS, GYNAECOLOGY AND INFANT HYGIENE INCLUDING HOMOEOPATHIC THERAPEUTICS
F. Instructions in Homoeopathic therapeutics
and prescribing.
G. As a matter of convenience, it is suggesfftO that instructions may bo given in the follow- nig manner during clinical course in Surgery.
(i) Applied Anatomy and applied Physiology,
General Surgical Procedures.
Homoeopathy adopts the same attitude towards these subjects as it does towards medicine and sur- gery. But while dealing with obstetrical and gynae- cological cases, a homoeopathic physician must be trained in special clinical methods of investigation for diagnosing local conditions and discriminating cases where surgical intervention either as a life-saving measure or for removing mechanical obstacles is necessary.
(ii) Diseases of the different systems what is not covered in the Diploma Course and also such diseases which are common with special reference to Homoeopathic Therapeutics.
The best time to eradicate familial dyscrasias in a woman or to purify the foetus of such dyscrasian which it may inherit, is during pregnancy; and this should be specially stressed.
(iii) Lecture demonstrations on—Radiology, Venereal diseases, orthopaedics, dental diseases, surgical diseases of infancy and childhood, Neurology, otorhinolaryn- gology and ophthalmology.
(iv) Lecture demonstration on bandages and
Students should also be instructed in the case of the new-born. The fact that the mother and child form a signal biological unit and that this peculiar close psychological relationship persists for at "least the first two years of the child's life should be parti- cularly emphasised.
other surgical appliances.
Note:
1. Throughout the whole period of study attention of the students should be directed by the teachers to the importance of its preventive aspects.
A. A course of systematic instructions in the principles and practice of obstetrics and gynaecology and infant hygiene including the applied anatomy and physiology of pregnancy and labour.
B. Instructions in Homoeopathic Therapeutics

2. Instructions in these branches of medicine should be directed to the attainment of sufficient know- ledge to ensure familiarity with the common condi- tions, their recognition and Homoeopathic treatment.
3. Every student shall prepare and submit 20 com-
plete case histories.
C. As a matter of convenience, it is suggested that instruction may be given in the follow- ing manner during the clinical course in Obstetrics and Gynaecology.
The written paper in Surgery shall be distributed a

5. Tutorials must be introduced so that students in small numbers can be in close touch with teachers and can be helped to study and understand materia medica in relation to its application in the treatment of the sick.
Note:
1. Throughout the whole period of the study, the attention of the students should be directed by the lecturers of this subject to the importance of its pre- ventive aspects.
2. Instruction in this branch of medicine should be directed to the attainment of sufficient knowledge to ensure familiarity with common conditions, their recognition and treatment.
3. Every student shall prepare and sumbit 20 com-
(plcte case histories.
The written paper in Obstetrics and Gynaecology
shall be distributed as follows:—
6. While teaching therapeutics an attempt should be made to recall the materia medica so that indica- tions ior drugs in a clinical condition can directly flow out from the provings of the drugs concerned. The student shouid be encouraged to apply the resources of the vast materia medica in any sickness and not limit himself to memorise a few drugs for a particular diesease. This Hnhnemannian approach will not - only help him in understanding the proper perspective of symptoms as applied and their curative value in sickness but will even lighten his burden as as for as formal examinatiors arc concerned. Other- wise the present trend produces the allopathic approach to treatment of diseases and is contradictory to the teaching of Organon.
Paper I—Obstetrics, new born, infant hygiene and
homoeopathic therapeutics.
Application of materia medica should be demons- trated from cases in the outdoor and hospital wards.
Paper II—Gynaecology and homoeopathic thera-
peutics.
HOMOEOPATHIC MATERIA MEDICA
Lectures on comparative materia medica and thera- peutics as well as tutorials should as far as possible be integrated with lectures on clinical medicine in the various departments.
7. For the teaching of drugs the college should keep herbarium sheets and other specimens for demonstration to the students. Lectures should be made interesting and slides of plants and materials may be projected.
Homoeopathic materia medica is differently cons- tructed as compared to other materia medicas. Homoeopathy considers that study of the action of drugs on individual parts or system of the body or on animals or isolated organs is only a partial study of life processes under such action and that it does not lead us to full appreciation of the action of the medicinal agent; the drug agent as a whole is lost sight of.
8. A. Introductory lectures: Teaching of the
homoeopathic materia medica should include.
(a) nature and scope of homoeopathic materia
medica.
(b) sources of homoeopathic materia medica,
and
Essential and complete knowledge of the drug action as a whole can be supplied only by qualitative synoptic drug experiments on healthy persons and this alone can make it possible to view all the scattered data in relation to the psychosomatic whole of a person; and it is just such a person as a whole to the knowledge of drug action is to be applied.
(c) different ways of study the materia medica
B. The drugs are to be taught under the following
heads:
1. Common name, natural order, habitat, part
used, preparation;
2. Sources of drug proving;
3. The homoeopathic materia medica consists of a schematic arrangement of symptoms produced by each drug, incorporating no theories or explanations about their interpretation or inter-relationship. Each drug should be studied synthetically, analytically and comparatively, and this alone would enable a homoeo- pathic student to study each drug individually and as a whole and help him to be a good prescribes.
3. Symptomatisation of the drug emphasising the characteristics, symptoms and modaili- ties.
4. Comparative study of drugs ;
5. Complementary, inimical, antidotal and
concordant remedies;
4. Polychrests and the most commonly indicated drugs for every day ailments should be taken up first so that in the clinical classes or outdoor duties the students become familiar with their applications. They should be thoroughly dealt with explaining all comparisons and relationship. Students should be conversant with their sphere of action and family relationship.
6. Therapeutics application (applied materia
medica).
C. A study of 12 tissue remedies according to The less common and rare drugs should be taught in outline, emphasizing only their most salient features and symptoms. Rarer drugs should be dealt-with later.
Schussler's biochemic system of medicine.

ORGANON AND PRINCIPLES OF HOMOEOPATHIC PHILOSOPHY
Hahnemann's Organon of medicine is the high water- mark of medical philosophy. It is an original contri- bution in the field of medicine in a codified form. A study of Organon as well as of ihe history of homoeo- pathy and its founder's life story will snow that homoeopathy is a product of application of the induc- tive logical method of reasoning to the solution of one of the greastest problems of humanity namely the treat- ment and cure o£ the sick. A thorough1 aquaintance with the fundamental principles of logic, both deductive and inductive, is therefore essential. The Organon should accordingly be taught in such a manner as to make clear to the students the implications of logical principles by which homoeopathy was worked out rind built up and with which a homoeopathic physician h,as to conduct his daily work with ease and facility in treating every concrete individual case.
The practical portions should be thoroughly under- stood and remembered for guidance in practical work as a physisten.
