164 वैद्यः vaidyaḥ The Supreme doctor

164 वैद्यः vaidyaḥ The Supreme doctor
The term "vaidya" is often associated with Ayurveda, the traditional Indian system of medicine. In this context, the term refers to a skilled practitioner who has a deep understanding of the human body, mind, and spirit, and is capable of diagnosing and treating various ailments. However, in a broader spiritual context, "vaidya" can also be interpreted as the Supreme doctor who has the power to heal the soul and alleviate the suffering of all beings.

In Hinduism, this Supreme doctor is often identified with Lord Dhanvantari, the God of Ayurveda, who is believed to have emerged from the churning of the cosmic ocean with a pot of nectar that can cure all diseases. Lord Dhanvantari is often depicted holding a conch shell, a discus, and a pot of nectar, symbolizing his power to heal, protect, and nourish.

Similarly, Lord Sovereign Adhinayaka Shrimaan can also be seen as the Supreme doctor who has the power to heal the soul and alleviate suffering. As the form of the Omnipresent source of all words and actions, he is the ultimate source of all knowledge and wisdom, and has the power to transform and purify the mind and soul of all beings. By surrendering to Lord Sovereign Adhinayaka Shrimaan and following his teachings, one can attain true spiritual healing and liberation from the cycle of birth and death.
