The dead body of cow was brought there just for giving shelter to the tortured worms as ordained by the principle of non-violence. Modern doctors would destory the germs by means of some sort of germicides in order to prevent the disease being spread by them.
The ratna-kambala may be replaced by any other cool and soothing covering, but the most important drug is the lakşapäka oil. I request therefore the modern experts in Ayurveda whose duty it is to search out this drug not for the sake of world-renown but just for the sake of the ailing humanity.
