Periyava was camping in Madras Sanskrit college. He was suffering from chest pain. The ayurvedic medicines he took did not reduce the pain. The Manager was worried. Hesitatingly he told Periyava, “If you allow me, I will send word to Dr.Vaidyanathan in Alwarpet. I somehow feel that if he comes and sees, it will be better.”
Surprisingly the request was granted. Dr. Vaidyanathan came and checked the pulse after wrapping His hand with a silk cloth. It was normal. He checked the blood pressure. It was very high. “Periyava, BP is very high. You must take medicine immediately.”
“OK.OK. You come back and take the tests again after half an hour.”
The tests were taken after half an hour only to find that it had become too low. Periyava with a knowing smile said.”Half an hour ago, you tested and said that the BP was very high. Now you are saying it is very low. What happens when BP is high and what happens when BP is low?”
Dr.Vaidyanathan said “If BP is high, it will lead to hemorrhage and there is danger to life. If it is low, then people faint and fall down. That is also dangerous”.
Periyava asked like a child, “But, No such thing has happened to me. Neither hemorrhage nor fainting”.
The doctor was scratching his head. “That is very surprising to me! BP going up just like that and immediately coming down does not happen usually. I think …..Your body must be totally obeying your commands”.
This is what happens when you try to treat Lord Vaidyanatha himself……..
