Pranam Anecdotes of partial questions and answers. It was good. However, doctors may not regret it as 75% of the doctors are commercial artists who know how to make money through the garb of the services; 25% honest are respected by the poor but the majority ignore them being the partners of the 75% doctors. I am not telling this. If you happen to go through the Video clipping in the Youtubes of Dr Hegde you can understand. The problem of the patients is knowing partly and the same problem does exist with the doctors too. Diseases are cured by the trial and run methods hence a big list of medicines are prescribed, Another reason is also for the family trips to Singapore Australia etc by the pharmacology companies. Even recently there were a lot of debates in the media where even Doctors said positive scanning is not at all required for the covid treatments but were being carried out. Another recent example is an eye drop calle dAurosporin: manufactured at Madurai and there is no alternate medicine at all to this , means , not widely used in the world!. But great hospitals prescribe it after the surgery and that too after 1 to 2 years after the surgery!. The purpose stated is for the removal of the dry eyes; but after 2 years eyes will be pumping a lot of water; then why does this dry eye drop?; the answer will be since transplantations of the cornea was done, this will protect from slipping away. If the patient is a sheep , will have to look yielding. If the transplantation did not stick even after two years , how did the dry eye compound glue it?. This otosporin drop will take you all the way around the hell for hours by burning; but the literature would say that as the negative effect and consult the doctor; but where there is no other alternative medicine, what would a doctor do?. Refreshed tears are there for dry eyes and then why to promote the only one on earth causing so much burning of the eyes?; maybe you go to the doctor after 2 years to pay him more?. Doctors are fine only if the patient is following the B G ; what was once yours is now that of another, why do you cry?. 2 Alternative medicines are followed in many parts of the world including Europe, Germany , France, India, Russia, China and USA . It is safe and does cure so many diseases. Even corona was controlled by alternate medicines.Only the commercials are opposing it. And since the alternate medicine is so useful and the takers are minority even the cost of the Ayurvedic product has become so dear. Ayurvedic medicines are available in nature and it shall not cost at all. However, as they were called Siddha and Ayurveda doctors by degrees, they also want to become commercialised and become rich by a short route. 3 Those who wants to know about Nephrons may go through this video: https://youtu.be/uI-ByPDmsQw 4 Vṛkka (वृक्क) is the name for the kidneys, in Sanskrit, and is explained in details, in the Atharva-veda; Śatapatha-brāhmaṇa; Gṛhya-sūtra and śrauta-sūtra etc. *vṛkya*, is narrated in the Taittirīya-saṃhitā; Āpastamba-śrauta-sūtra. Hence the nephrology even before taken from Greek word Nephros, were known to the ancient rishis; also treated in detail in Ayurveda samhita. Incidentally Sanskrit is a refined language in the sense that Vrika is wolf ; vrikodhara (udhara is stomach) is wolf-stomach @ Bheeman (B G 1.15) . The stressed vrikka is kidney and the two wolves inside the udharam are to be treated like a wolf else will show the gunas of the wolf. 5 Splashing with the water could harm the face and its organs subject to the softness of the skin. And streaming in the west is ,in the USA we wash in the hot water where when the tap is opened steam comes out; and if one tries gimmicks definitely would the storm cause the skin to peel. 6 Windows or curtains, open windows or closed windows are dependent on the atmospheric insects shrouded places. There was once a day, long long ago , nobody knows how long ago, there was a time, when all the windows doors were open by early mornings and were closed only by midnight. Mosquitos were there; bugs were there; monkeys were there; snakes were hanging; and we were living (our ancestors) peacefully. But today for so many reasons windows remain closed and the air is conditioned. Curtains hide the view but let in the nature; closed windows if its glass, increase the room temperatures. Hence the way of the world has changed and we are a modified commodity. Even today those who live in the concrete jungle are the sinners and those who live in the villages are punyavans. KR IRS 29721
