A vaidya has to care for the patients as if they were his children or family members. A Vaidya, by practicing with compassion towards the ailing, earns much more than wealth. Therefore, a vaidya should not consider treatment as a business. This advice of Charakasamhita holds true even today. Those who serve patients with this attitude, get such benefits from the society, which no other profession can get, and unmatched as compared to wealth.
