The rasayana preparations, vajikarana recipes and remedies designed for the treatment of diseases – all depend on (vision and skill of) the physician. Hence the wise should honour with all means the treating physician who promotes life, is wise and well versed in the science of life as the king of gods honours Aświns.

The ''rasayana'' preparations, ''vajikarana'' recipes and remedies designed for the treatment of diseases – all depend on (vision and skill of) the physician. Hence the wise should honour with all means the treating physician who promotes life, is wise and well versed in the science of life as the king of gods honours Ashwins.

Aświns are the physicians of gods and carriers of sacrifices. The head of sacrifice was cut which was joined by Aswins. The fallen teeth of Pusan, destroyed eyes of Bhaga and the spastic arm of Vajrin were treated by them and thus he, addicted to soma drink, was again made happy. Cyavana, the descendent of Bhrgu, who was sexually indulged and became diseased, devoid of complexion and voice in old age, was reverted to youthful age. On account of these and other similar achievements, the two excellent physicians became highly adorable to the great selves like Indra etc and vessels, praises, recitations, various food preparations, incenses and animals are offered to them by the twins born. In the morning, indra enjoys the soma drink in the company of Aświns and he also makes pleasure along with them in the sautrāmaṇi sacrifice. Indra, agni and Aświns were worshipped mostly by the twin born and are praised in the vedic hymes, not so the other gods. Thus the twin physicians Aświns are worshipped by the gods and their masters. Then how should the physicians not be honoured with all means by mortals who are affected by the death, diseases and senility and after the search of happiness? The physicians who is endowed with good conduct, wisdom and rationality, is thrice born, well versed in scriptures and master of life should be honoured as preceptor by the people. (39-51)

After completing the course of training, it is the third birth of a physician because the physician does not carry the epithet “Vaidya” from the previous birth. On completion of training, Brāhma or Arṣa psyche enters in to him certainly according to the knowledge. Hence the physician is known as the thrice born. The wise, desirous of stable life, should not backbite, re approach and harm the master of life. (52-54)
