The contemporary medical research has
come up with enough evidence that mind is the seat of all diseases and that we
are surrounded by myths. Dr.B M Hegde is a medical scientist, cardiologist,
educationist and author who has contributed immensely in the field of
healthcare medical science. He speaks about how change is found everywhere and
that change is life. He talks about the level of difficulty seen in removing
myths. He cites the examples of taking medicines for minor illnesses which
otherwise could be cured by sipping hot water which destroys the virus or by
using the readily available Indian herbs. A good doctor according to him is the
one who empathizes and builds faith in his patient. He says that change is a
