It was a full auditorium with more than thousand five hundred delegates. The session continued beyond lunch time. When some delegates became restless a voice sounded from the dais. “please be seated till the session is over. The speaker is also hungry.” A pin drop silence followed. This charismatic voice belongs to Dr. Mahendra Singh, the name synonymous with homoeopathy in India for more than forty years.

    Hailing from Bihar from an ordinary family, he graduated from The Calcutta Homoeopathic Medical College in 1960. Started teaching Organon since 1962. He is known for his concern to the poor, downtrodden and suffering people. This he inherited and enriched from his family.

    He held various positions as a teacher of Organon. He rose to the national arena as Chairman, Education Committee, Central Council of Homoeopathy. He was elected as National President, Homoeopathic Medical Association of India.

    He has authored several books to his credit. His latest work - First corrected, re - translated and redacted edition of Organon of Medicine is amazing. He has learnt German to do this great work.

    “He who always set up a minimum standard for me to attain, which again has made me work hard and harder, and who by being an example has inspired me to work more and more”. These words of Dr.subhas Singh about his father Dr.Mahendra Singh holds good not only for him but for the entire homoeopathic family.
