Educational Q&A
Illness can arise from bodily factors, and mental disturbances can also generate physical disease; therefore ethical self-governance includes guarding the mind, not only the body.
Vaiśampāyana states a reflective maxim within the Shānti Parva’s instruction: he links physical suffering and mental states, emphasizing that inner causes can produce outer afflictions.
