Kalu Sarkar has been in charge of the Physiotherapy-cum-Acupuncture-cum-Homoeopathy department of Sri Aurobindo Ashram for the past 54 years. But his involvement and empathy with the human suffering led him to the conclusion that the external and scientific principles of treatment can play only a limited role in human health-welfare unless the physician as well as the patient had some knowledge of the psychic principles at work in our life. The passages he chose from the vast world of the works of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother, he believes, are the best corollary to the external process of healing, bringing to the patient the indispensable element of faith and self-confidence necessary for recovery.
