In plain words
Then he sent him another 20 miles. He said that only one or two trees were suitable. Even then he did not give him marks. The next year he told him to look over an area of 50 miles. Then Sārasvata came. “Sir! There is not a single tree that is of no use. Every herb is very much needed; each has to do with health,” he said. Then the sage Bhāradvāja gave him the degree in Āyurveda. In this world there are no plants or trees that are of no use. All of them are of use. Even a small blade of grass is of use. Even a blade of grass in the lawn of a house is of use. Among them a white blade of grass comes up. It cures dysentery that will not stop. If you take two or three white blades of grass, chew them well and swallow them, the dysentery goes. Not only this. We chew betel. In it there are three things: the areca nut, the leaf and lime. The lime is calcium; the leaf purifies the blood. The areca nut helps digestion. Those who keep dogs grind an areca nut once a week, put it in milk and give it to them. It increases the digest power. In the old days people put the herbs of the forest to good use. Because it was so, Bhārata took shape as so sacred a country.
Study without Culture Is of No Use
Students, whether you believe it or not, from time without beginning there have been sacred qualities like forbearance and sympathy in this country. Not only this. This is an ideal country. The sacredness of this country is not in any other country. There is Satya in the air here. There is Dharma in the dust. There is compassion in the soil. There is Prema in the Gaṅgā. There is forgiveness in man. Because there was so much greatness in this sacred land, Max Müller in his day longed to come to Bhārata and die there. Bhārata is so great just because it has qualities that show, without limit, the ideals fit for such humanness: physical, moral and spiritual.
