Holistic Herbalism: Looking Beyond the Chemicals

The physician makes from nature, from nature he is born; only he who receives his experience from nature is a physician, and not he who writes, speaks and acts from his head and with conduct directed against nature and its forms. The physician is only the servant of nature, not its master. It is therefore up to medicine to follow the will of nature. He who would be a good physician must find his faith in the rational light of nature, must work with it and undertake nothing without it.
