Vaikunthanath Das Kaviraj
1946 - 2013
Kaviraj began working, at the age of 14, in tree nurseries and on organic dairy farms.
He became seriously ill during a trip to India and was cured with homeopathy. The desire to understand what had cured him, when everything else had failed, led to an apprenticeship in the 1970s followed by 10 years running Dr. Chatterjee‘s rural clinic.
His work with plants began in Switzerland in 1986 when a friend suggested he try treating an apple orchard that had developed a virulent bright red rust.
This experience inspired the years of research in Australia and Europe that form the basis of his guide Homeopathy for Farm and Garden.
