Doctor: The second God on this earth ? ? ?

Leaders ,trains and Doctors never come on time in India.

Here, I want to talk about doctors. It is an old proverb in India that "Doctor is the second God on this Earth" , and this second God check their patient with their full patience. Doctors working in government hospitals taking full advantage of their job and position, how can they lag behind in compression with other government employees in other departments. "Not to work properly and to be late as much as they can they need in their fundamental right of a typical government employee". But here I am talking about the second God. Usually they don't appear on time in front of their patient. No matter it is a government hospital or private hospital. Yes, even in private hospitals and nursing home doctors found coming late to their O.P.D timing. Its bitter but fact (Indians, isn't it ?). In general private hospitals patient are charges more than Rs:100 to 200 consultancy fee and emergency fee more than Rs: 250 to 300. Whether doctors come one or two hours late form their O.P.D timing but they will charge emergency chargers if patients comes 15 minute late after O.P.D timing. It’s bizarre that a common men who fight for one or two rupee with rickshaw puller or vegetable vendor never utter a word in front of a doctor ,because God can do everything. So if you have any disease, just leave your money and your life in hands of second God and everything thing is upon him , how will he treat you.

 

1 USD = 49.17 INR (What is the salary of a general manual labor who flow their sweat more than 8 hours a day ? It's something around than Rs: 80 - 90) or more.

 

For dangerous diseases one must have to go to a big hospital where all kinds of medically necessary equipments and good doctors are found and what is the charges in big hospitals...??? It's not much for well-heeled people, it's around more than Rs:3000 - 5000 per day ( including all charges, except medicine ) which takes time to earn that much money for a lower class family.

 

Sorry !!! It's the reality in my country, my way is not to insult this great position and I'm with this old prover: Yes, doctors are the second God on this Earth.

 

My dear EC teachers/friends...what about your country ??? I don't think something same in your country ???

 

"Doctor is the second God on this Earth"are you with or against of this proverb ?

 

May the God always bless all the doctors on this Earth!!!

  • Hell Viviana V,
    Thanks a bunch for your nice words here.

  • Dear Mohammad thankssss..bye the way I'm not showing here that there are two god in this world. I know there is only one god in different types.

    What makes you to think "There is no God but Allah" ???

     

    ***

     

    I am called by many names Shiva, Rudra, God, Allah...

     

    You have built temples and churches for me.

    You searched for Me on pilgrimages and on mountains.

    But you couldn't see Me with those eyes.

     

    My form is of divine light, like a shining star.

    I live in a world far beyond this material universe.

    You too live with me in that supreme land of timeless peace.

    Your form is also like mine-subtle, eternal, divine light.

     

    You came onto this stage to play your part through the body.

    When this drama comes to an end,

    you return to the supreme land with me.

    Whilst playing your part, you lose yourselves in the play,

    you forget Me, you forget your home.

    I come once every cycle into this human play to free you

    from the strings of attachment and ignorance.

     

    I remain ever free, ever pure, ever blissful, ever loving.

    I remind you are like Me and that you belong to Me always.

    When you recognize Me accurately and focus your thoughts on Me,

    you come back to Me.

     

    My incarnation is divine, unique and incognito.

    I am your long forgotten Father and Mother.

    My relationship with you is eternal.

  • Dear Lara, thanks for your comment here. It's onlyyyyyyy proverb... I'm not against you. Yes, there is only one God who decide for things...

    Thanks!

  • Nice blog dear friend and sorry for that situation about doctors in your country

    that is right that doctors play a great role in the socity, on the earth.

    Their role is so important to such an extend that you might wonder if they don't have power on your life or death.

    However i disagree with this proverb for many of doctors don't care about situation of patients, their suffering. All they expect is money regardless to patient's financial capacities .For most of them, one more patient is an occasion to make money. This is the regrettable situation in my country, Benin in the west of Africa. What i want to mean is that India isn't the only country where we have that. I'm aware that according to the case the situation more deplorable. Therefore i remain persuaded that India case is not the worse.

    One of our local musicians said in one of his songs that the prayer of doctors is that everyday that God makes, may people be ill in order to make money. Joke or not, i think there is something true in his song.

    After all, no patient no doctor.

  • I heard this Indian proverb before and I heard another one :Nurses are the angels in the earth ,but both proverbs are only words....   :)

    Some doctors thesedays and all around the world are running in a hurry to get more money and they don't care about the poor people .

    I think all the people should do their works honestly:doctors,nurses,teachers......

    this is our role in life , if everyone do his job  correctly , our world will be more elevating.

    Thank you Rajesh,nice blog....as usual.

  • Its nice blog. But i say, Dr is nice profession, but not nice like God. God has purely perfection.And Dr has lot of error in their profession (human error, working error) so, that couldn't God who has little error. Yes! i have experienced about Dr. they are some very nice in their profession , and also they good for mankind, and most of totally opposite of them. Yes sometimes they safe our life, but sometimes they fail to safe our life. So they depend on luck and luck made by God . God is up to the luck. So we obey  always The God! who made us superior in the whole creatures.and Dr also creature of the God, how can we say Dr, is 2nd God. live in earth!  

  • HI,Rajesh,

    we can't change anhything ,But we can change our minds.in China,Doctors and nurses are always called "angles in white''.Doctors always arrive the scene at the first time when the people in danger. Maybe some doctors don't do their duty as well.now people can get medical benefit around the country.More than a hundred million of people have already bought medical insurance from the hospitals and companies.So ,when we have dengerous diseases and must go to a big hopstial,then we can get discount from the medicine.If we must stay in hosptal,we only pay half of fee-for-service(in fact,I don't know how much we should pay for hospital,maybe more than a half or less than)I just talk about my thinks.maybe the fact is not like what I said.I don't know what the doctors think and what they feel,I just know that they can save our life when the diseases catch us.

    But I don't agree that doctors are the second god on this earth.The doctors except they can medical skills,as for other aspects,we are the same.

    Actually, I read the news every day,and I know more about other countries what they have happened there.I means ,we can't change what is must to happen,just do yourself best.

  • Hi Rajesh,

      Excellent blog our younger brother! I'm glad you were able to come up with what's actually happening in your country. We have the same scenario, but in my country, many medical professionals (mostly nurses) leave or go abroad for greener pastures. High salary, great benefits and better working conditions are some of the reasons why they leave my country.

      Regarding to your question, well I don't think a doctor is second God. Because, when you say God, it's the ultimate creator and there's only one God (with different names because of different religions). I would prefer them as Angels of God because they help, treat, improve the condition of the sick. 

      Good job in posting this one. Keep it up and more power he he he. : )

  • Hi Rajesh

    Nice blog

    And you know that I'm also your country friend, so our thinking is same as you about Doctor.

    But  really, Doctor is the second god in the world .

    Have a good day!

    Byeeeeeeeeeee

  • Hi Rajesh!

    Firstly, I disagree with the proverb 'cuz as Muslims, we believe that there is only one God (Allah). However, I don't deny the great importance of doctors all over the world....

    My friend, you commited some mistakes...Here're the corrections:

    1-" The doctor is the second God god on earth"

    2-"and this second god check checks...with their full patience"

    3-"doctors working in hospitals taking take...jobs and positions"

    4-" how can they lag behind in compression comparison...?

    5-" in general private hospitals patients are charged ..."

    6-"if patients comes come 15 minute minutes..."

    7-" it's bizzar that a common men  common men who fight for one or two rubees..."

    8-" who flows his sweat..." well, I'm only correcting the grammar here not the structure 'cuz I don't really know whether" flow sweat" can be used in English or not.

    9-"what are the charges in big hospitals?"

    10- "I don't think it's similar in your country"

    Don't get mad at me dear Rajesh!!! Besides,and more importantly, don't get angry at yourself 'cuz you'll learn from your mistakes. Remember "Practice makes perfect" and you're doing your best.

    Wish you all the best,

    Lama
