Answer
Study question (generated from the text)
Holy men devoted to yoga, with pure, life-free medicines; failing such a physician, a lay follower (shravaka); and failing him, a physician of wrong faith won over with honour, gifts and respect.
Detailed answer
The first choice of medicine is the fragrant substances of perfumers' shops, from distant islands, of many tastes, potencies and vipakas, life-free, fresh, clean and nourishing; failing these, suitable medicines grown in कृष्ण regions, turned up by the ploughshare and not too dry, collected in any season as available; failing these, pure life-free medicines chosen with care, as the Kalpa-vyavahara says. Holy men are to be protected in every way, since only with a healthy body can they keep to their path of restraint.
