Vaikunthanath Das Kaviraj was born in 1946 in the Netherlands. At 14 he started in nurseries and farms to organic production work. On a trip to India he became seriously ill and was cured by homeopathy. The desire to understand what had cured him where all else failed, led him in the 70 years of Dr. Chatterjee, where he spent 10 years in his clinic.

His work with plants Kaviraj began in 1986 in Switzerland. There, he treated with rust fungus infested apple trees with success with Bella Donna. Then he ran over many years of intensive research. The knowledge gained forms the basis for his guide "Homeopathy for gardening and agriculture."
