the most potent medicine that can cure the infirmities

शरीरे जर्जरीभूते व्याधिग्रस्थे कलेवरे। औषधं जाह्नवी तोयं वैद्यो नारायणो हरिः॥

śarīre jarjarībhūte vyādhigrasthe kalevare| auṣadham jāhnavī toyaṁ vaidyo nārāyaṇo hariḥ||

ശരീരേ ജര്‍ജരീഭൂതേ വ്യാധിഗ്രസ്ഥേ കലേവരേ। ഔഷധം ജാഹ്നവീ തോയം വൈദ്യോ നാരായണോ ഹരിഃ॥

When this human body, which is prone to decay right from the moment it is born is caught up with old age and decay, and has become doddery, weak and devoid of strength and attractives, due to old age, When this human body which is supposed to have a very attractive persona and verve becomes shaky and lack lustre when it is infested with dieseases, the most potent medicine that can cure the infirmities and bring it back to its old attractiveness and health is the hallowed waters of River Ganga, the Jahnavi.. and of course, the doctor who can effect the cure by merciful and devoted treatment is none other that Hari, the remover of all sufferings, that attractive Supreme one Narayana, the Krishna.

शरीरे when this body, the body which starts to decay right from the moment it is born and there fore it is called Shareera, जर्जरिभुते is rendered substantially infirm, decayed and virtually unworkable सति being कलेवरे this body which looks so spick and spam and attractive usually (it is called Kalevara because of its dainty appearance ) व्याधि ग्रस्थे infested by diseases सत्यपि too having become जाह्नवी तोयं the holy waters of Ganga, the darling daughter of Sage Jahnu (She is called by that sweet name because she became the daughter of that great Sage Jahnu during her torrential flow on the Bharatha Plain)औषधं elixir, medicine that removes all illness and disability भवति becomes नारायणः Lord Narayanan हरिः the attractive one, the one who steals away all sins, the one who removes all sorrows वैद्य इति in the shape of physician, doctor वर्तते becomes.

ഈ ശരീരം ജര ബാധിച്ച് ഒന്നുമല്ലാതെ ആയി തീരുമ്പോള്‍, ഏറെ സുന്ദരം എന്ന് നാം കരുതുന്ന നമ്മുടെ ദേഹം വ്യാധി പിടിച്ച് രൂപം കെട്ട് നില്‍ക്കുമ്പോള്‍ നമുക്ക് ആത്യന്തികമായ മരുന്നായി വരുന്നത് ജാഹ്നവി എന്ന ഗംഗയില്‍ ഒഴുകിയെത്തുന്ന ജീവ തീര്‍ത്ഥം മാത്രമായിരിക്കും. ഏറ്റവും ശ്രേഷ്ടനായ വൈദ്യന്‍ ആ അവസരത്തില്‍ ഹരിയായ, എല്ലാ ദുഃഖങ്ങളും കവര്‍ന്നെടുക്കുന്ന, ഭഗവാന്‍ നാരായണന്‍ ആയിരിക്കും.
