Sushruta

Disease is imbalance; health is equilibrium.

A surgeon's gaze must pierce the flesh.

Life's meaning lies in serving the afflicted.

Toxins purge to purify the vessel.

The wise heal without leaving scars on the soul.

Anatomy is the map of the divine body.

Compassion tempers the surgeon's steel.

Breath is the essence of vitality.

Errors in diagnosis doom the patient.

Nature provides all remedies for the discerning eye.

The path to mastery is through diligent study.

Wounds of the body mirror wounds of the mind.

Sutures bind flesh as vows bind souls.

The seasons influence the flow of health.

A healer's legacy is measured in lives saved.

Precision in incision prevents future pain.

In the silence of surgery, truth emerges.

Balance diet with the rhythms of life.

The unhealed wound festers in neglect.

Eyesight restored brings light to darkness.
