HIPPOCRATIC OATH
The Hippocratic Oath, a seminaldocument on the ethicsof medicalpractice, was attributed to Hippocratesin antiquity. This is probably the mostfamous document of the Hippocratic
Corpus. Recently the authenticity ofthe document has come underscrutiny. While the Oath is rarely usedin its original form today, it serves as afoundation for other, similar oathsand
laws that define good medical practiceand morals. Such derivatives areregularly taken today by medicalgraduates about to enter medicalpractice.
Hippocrates of Cos II

Health-Care is Integral and Holistic
if it also focuses on:
Preservation of HealthPrevention of Disease
not just curing bodily disease.

Health should include the fourth dimension:
SPIRITUAL WELL BEING
WHO brought in a resolution in 1983 to include
the Spiritual dimension of health, but it was not
until 1998 the Executive Board of the WHOaccepted the suggested amendment to the
Constitution:Health is a dynamic state of complete physical,
mental, spiritual and social wellbeing, and not
merely absence of disease or infirmity.
8/12/2019 SARAPAVAN Human Values English

Disease in its origin is not matter, but theultimate product of deep seated and longacting forces. Therefore, treatment at thematerial plane (body) alone cannot effect a
complete healing.
Without surrendering to a Higher-Power,
humanity will be plagued with anxiety anddepression, the biggest contributor to disease.

Medical education today has become increasinglyself-centred, de-humanised and fragmented. Thereis too much emphasis on academic performance,and acquisition of technical skills.
As a result we are: Developing a manipulative intelligence
Not exercising proper discrimination
Misusing human and natural resources Not enabling patients to tap their own inner
resources to fulfil their aspirations.

There isnt yet any serious attempt to
incorporate basic spiritual teaching in the
undergraduate and post-graduate trainingof
doctors. Of course it will demand anenormous turn around from the current
entrenched position of a secular and
mechanistic view on human sciences.

Sectarian beliefs compound the problem
further, and it would be a formidable task
to overcome such vested interests inScientific, Religious, Commercial, Legal
and Political domains that seek control.

Globalisation:Proper Medical Relief should bemade available to the sick. It is the birthright of allpeople.
De-commercialisation:Medical relief should notbe beyond the means of any human being.
Humanisation:All Health-Care workers shouldhave a 'humane' approach in patient-care andpractise 'Human Values'.
Spiritualisation:Those involved in Patient-caremust know of the Spiritual Dimension in Manand try to incorporate the same in the practice ofHealing.

We need to re-educate ourselves that weare spiritual beings, with a body, mind
and spirit - Not just biological machines.
Mere material science of treating bodily
afflictions is incomplete, without
understanding the sublime science ofMind & Spirit, Birth, Life and Death.
8/12/2019 SARAPAVAN Human Values English
24/41
Our attention is limited to the body and
not able to see the person in the patient!

The art of healing is handed down byexperienced practitioners, not books!

In the materialistic, high-tech environment,
intimidated by medico-legal constraints and
peer pressure, the doctor has to work hard to
keep the body alive, oblivious of the suffering
of the patient within.
Death is only casting aside the body!Quality of life is important - Not Quantity

The cult of greed has not only bankruptedour economy but also is destroying every bitof compassion .
. leading to the frightening mess we aremaking, even with the dying, where
patients die hidden away in hospitals in thecold company of machines.

Heart of Compassion
Spirituality kindles a spontaneous
and sympathetic feeling in thedoctor and enables him to treathis patient as he would his kithand kin.
The inter-relationship of thehealer and the healed can be fullyunderstood only through
Spiritual Awareness.
There exists a sacred bond between the
doctor and the patient.

29/41
Lack of love, excessive and unrelenting pain,
fear and such negative experiences weaken
the spirit and consequently the body.
Tender Loving Care(T.L.C) gives confidence
to the patient and strengthens his spirit and
thereby his will to recover.

Selfish goals are injurious to the individual
especially when they are at the expense ofothers
Competitiveness, rivalry, violence,
pettiness, jealousy, hatred and a wholehoard of negative activities - criticising,comparing, calculating, worrying,
imagining and so on.
These lead to mental and physical
disturbances and consequently diseases.

Mind When we dont know something,our ignorance is bliss; we are not affectedby it. But, when we know of something, itwill affect us.
Mental Attitude - A change is possible
through a change in Educational System.
8/12/2019 SARAPAVAN Human Values English
35/41
Instead of limiting Education to only an External,
Intellect-based, Objective Education, we also need
to give our students an Internal, Intuition-based,
Subjective and Transformation Education.
Thus the secular knowledge and skills gained by
them will have added value we would then
Skill such knowledge.
Mere Objective knowledge will Kill it.
