अगस्त-२०१६ Agnibhuti's doubt regarding the same was clarified in little time. Such was the powerful speech and knowledge of the lord.
When the meritorious deeds i.e. punya bear fruit, all circumstances become favourable for the soul. An illustration to explain the same is given as under.
Seth Mafatlal's father was a renowned physician. He served a lot of sick people and managed to accumulate plenty of wealth during his life time. When he expired, his son was unable to continue the practice because he could not become adopt with the skill.
The fortune his father left behind also gradually began to dwindle and finally he was put in such a situation where he could not favour himself with his daily bread.
In those days People seldom fell sick because they took care of the kind of food they ate. because there were not many hotels, hospitals also were not required. The root cause of all diseases is hotels where good care is not taken to prepare food like in the homes. If any 'Vaidya’-doctor walked into some one's house, people thought that a brother of the God of death had come.
“वैद्यराज नमस्तुभ्यम् यमज्येष्ठसहोदर। यमस्तु हरति प्राणांस्त्वं पुनः सवसूनसून ॥”
“Oh, Vaidyaraj, we bow to you, because when Yamaraj comes he only takes away the life with him, but when the Vaidyaraj comes he takes away wealth, peace of mind and finally the life also”. As it is said
पेट को नरम, पाँव को गरम, सिर को रखो ठण्डा। फिर यदि डाक्टर आये तो, मारो उसको डंडा॥
But the scene is altogether different to-day. Death has become very cheap and people are least bothered about what is happening in their society and to their relatives and neighbours.
