To have the right application of medical science, pure science must guide the choice and application of treatment Hence to have the sensible application of medical science, a science of “healing” must exist. Why do we neglect to seek the comprehension of a completely natural phenomenon of the emergence of the particular nature of the disease in man ( a natural creation) and blindly seek some unnatural means to block, mask or suppress ailments? Is it not a reductionist mode of approach to attempt to solve a natural problem by absolutely deviating from the causal mechanisms and nature of the problem and thinking of some external means to block, mask or alter the same?

India being addressed as a wise and civilized nation from the olden days must sensibly think of adopting those pure sciences which deal with healing diseases in man in place of the sciences selling unknown compounds under the label of Medicine. Everybody can earn millions of rupees by selling anything if they know business and marketing strategies but how few can heal people and stabilize their health fast and without messing with the knowledge and skills in the Science of healing! In fact the latter community deserves to be addressed as physicians as what they apply are sensible logic of Science of healing and not unstable data of unknown compounds

Science is not about empirical observation; it is very much about logical reasoning to understand and solve a problem in its own natural setting. We do not need statistics to understand why and how fever develops in man and for the same reason, we do not need statistics that emerge compounds to block fever. The intended therapeutic action in fever is to resolve fever along with its cause mechanisms and heal the subject as quick as possible and not block or mask the same.This is simple common sense to know. Disrupting a natural environment by some artificial means and calling it science is real nonsense. Science is the knowledge of the laws of nature. As diseases are natural phenomena in human beings, their solutions are also meant to be natural and that facilitates natural healing by the body itself by rendering Science led support in the diet and regimen of the sick subject and that is what medical science is intended to do. Statistics f unknown compounds show data of benefits and risks. Data can only help to show temporary benefit risks of unknown compounds and never help to “know “ WHY and HOW” the disease and WHY and HOW healing is possible. But if WHY and HOW are explored, the results of the sensible application of the healing process will originally show the Science of Healing instead of casual observations. Medicine without statistics would rationally explain the knowledge of healing. This knowledge of healing disease is crucial for anything to be addressed as treatment. Thus we do not need statistics to understand and reverse a disease but for that we crucially need the Science of man and the Science of healing in man.
When statistics is employed to analyse compounds for benefit risks also, there is no certainity that the compound will heal the subject. Then what is the benefit of knowing the compound and its mode of blocking disease along with risks ?? Statistics help pharma companies to sell their products effectively but there is no guarantee to heal man effectively. Thus a medical science is to emerge based on the Science of healing to deserve to be called a medical science  and scientific publications of medical science must discuss this very science of healing instead of benefits risks of blocking, masking, and suppressing ailments
