First, modify the patient's diet and lifestyle and only then, if these do not effect a cure, treat with medicinals and acupuncture.
Medicine is intention. Those who are proficient at using intention are good doctors.
Above all, I will keep an open heart. As I move on the right path I will recieve great happiness as a reward without asking for anything in return.
Doctors should first understand the cause of disease, then treat it with diet. Medicine should only be used if diet fails
Whenever a great physician treats diseases, he has to be mentally calm and his disposition firm. He should not give way to wishes and desires, but has to develop first a marked attitude of compassion. He should commit himself firmly to the willingness to take the effort to save every living creature.
