Premanand Maharaj Ji

I am a doctor and suffering patients disturb me. How do I stay steady and still be compassionate?

In another's suffering, act on your duty

When someone is suffering in front of you, you need not grieve there, because your duty has arisen. Compassion may mean doing a hard thing, like removing a diseased limb with the patient's consent, for a disease that would destroy the whole body.

If someone has had an accident and lies in agony, you need not grieve there. Your duty has arisen there.
