Sanskrit Original
विपुलैरभिजायन्ते लब्धास्तैरेव मङ्गलैः। कर्मजा हि मनुष्याणां रोगा नास्त्यत्र संशयः॥ आधिभिश्चैव बाध्यन्ते व्याधैः क्षुद्रमृगा इव। ते चापि कुशलैवैद्यैर्निपुणैः सम्भृतौषधैः॥ व्याधयो विनिवार्यन्ते मृगा व्याधैरिव द्विज। येषामस्ति च भोक्तव्यं ग्रहणीदोषपीडिताः॥
The diseases froin which men suffers are certainly the result of their own Karma. They then behave like small deer in the hands of the hunters. They are afflicted with mental troubles. O Brahmana, as deer are stopped by the hunters, so these diseases are checked by able and skillful physician with their many drugs. Those that have objects of enjoyments suffer from severe bowl complaints.
