Paragraph 37

In plain words

"If tamas is turned around it leads to God. Use force with Him: He is no stranger, He is our very own. And see, this tamas can be used for the good of others too. There are three kinds of physician: the best, the middling and the worst. The physician who comes, feels the pulse, says 'Take your medicine, now,' and goes away is the worst kind of physician: he does not bother to find out whether the patient took it. The physician who reasons with the patient at length to make him take the medicine, who speaks sweetly and says, 'Now, how will you get well if you don't take your medicine? Take it, there's a good fellow; look, I am mixing it for you myself, take it,' is the middling physician. And the physician who sees that the patient will not take it on any account, puts his knee on his chest and makes him swallow it by force, is the best physician. This is the physician's tamas; it does the patient good, not harm.
