Medicine for the disease of Birth & Death

O people, please hear of this treatment for the disease of birth and death! It is the name of Krishna. Recommended by Yājñavalkya and other expert yogīs steeped in wisdom, this boundless, eternal inner light is the best medicine, for when drunk it bestows complete and final liberation. Just drink it!
