Hindu Medicine c5.s2.29

c5.s2.29

bear in mind when in the representation of Hindu medicine one reads of the old saga, of the gods and demons, of initiations, when one reads of religious practices; for the Hindu, these stories are not dead matter, these concepts are not meaningless fictions; they are indicative of a living power that has always shaped and is still shaping his existence. Far from being an adornment, they express the essence of his thought.¹⁴
