    Today 7th August 2021, I saw a different patient. Raghuvir (name changed) was my patient for the last 2 years. He suffered from Diabetes, IHD, 

Kidney failure, Hypertension, congestive cardiac failure. After a meticulous management the patient was stabilised and was leading a good quality life. A regular follow up made him loose about 12 kg of his weight. Everything was stable and good.

 

          Three months back his son gets married with the arrival of a daughter- in-law who is welcomed by the family creating very happy atmospheres in the family. For some time everyone has forgotten father’s sickness. The daughter -in -law takes charge of the house. She gives him proper medicines and to make him strong (I am still to understand the meaning of this strong) and happy, feeds him very well. She enjoys all her culinary ability and feeds him with all exotic dishes. As a result he puts on 8 kg extra weight, loses all the control on his body functions. The family has forgotten all about his sickness. One day it is noticed that he is very breathless and brings him to me. He is in gross congestive heart failure with very high blood urea......A dire critical condition.

 

Lesson to be learned......Proper weight and proper diet is vital for our health. Such happy moments are required but right understanding and knowledge of any condition is a must for us to live our life well.

 

Please analyse many such events in your house and try to avoid such incidents.

Learn to Ask and learn to Thank

 Universe has and gifts us everything in abundance for all of us.We only need to accept it,thank the universe and enjoy it.   The oxygen that we take in hospital costs us Rs 5000 a day. You can take in any amount of oxygen from the nature without paying a penny.But we do not hesitate to destroy the whole supply of oxygen from the place we live even after knowing that the absense or lack of this oxygen is making us unsurvivable.We only have to understand this and be careful and thankful to the universe.      Develop the attitude to ask and thank.Even a newborn child has to ask his mother I want milk.When its stomach is full,just observe the child goes to sleep or plays with the mother saying thank you.Every need and luxury that we need is at our disposable. Learn to ask and learn to thank.We do not have the abundance of universe only because we have not earned to ASK and we haven't learned to THANK.       Embrace this science and art of Ask and Thank,universe will make you abundant

Which Pathy is better.

People worldwide have this constant debate going on.The allopaths say Ayurveda and homeopathy are placebos.While the others say allopathy is a wrong science.        I have seen the Ayurveda practitioners treating themselves with allopathic drugs and vice versa.       I have seen myself treating and curing patients with whatever drugs that have come to my hands on a number of occasions. Health and pathy or drugs may not matter at all on a number of occasions.       Healing is an internal matter. It is for the physician or the Vaidya to understand the patient and alter his mind to cure himself.Many of the medicines may only be the vehicles to reach that destination. Better the vehicle better and safer is the journey.
