Now I am realizing that it was foolishness on my part to do so, as the problem has grown three folds	The point of stupidity is to keep on ignoring even when the problem has grown two folds. For example, a patient knows that drinking even a glass of wine would bring suffering, and they try their best not to drink it. But one day in a party, someone offer them wine or upon seeing the wine they thought of taking a half glass of wine. Next day, they suffer and that time it comes to their mind it was stupid on their part to do so.

DELUSIONS; succeed; cannot; he does everything wrong (8) Anac, arg-n, Aur, germ-met, nat-c	Succeed: To prosper, to obtain the object desired. What is the need of the patient to come and say, "I have a feeling that what I do everything wrong and cannot succeed in life."	It may be a normal human being feeling, but as a patient it puts a lot of pressure in the mind of a patient due to which it takes away the charm of working hard or no desire for competition or always has a fear to start anything new. From where this feeling of doing everything wrong and he cannot succeed is getting originated? It gets originated after repeated failure, thus losing a great amount of money, respect or confidence of others. It could be related to anything not only work, but also managing the relationship, family welfare, or exams. What is the impact of it? Such patient loses the confidence in them and lives with fear to start anything new in life.

No desire for business

• It has been seen that, during the sick state, a patient has no desire to work. They remain indifferent towards their income. They do not care how they are going to manage their finance and those dependent upon them. They may get agitated when asked to do something. Some patient has a feeling towards their business/ work/duty, but sometimes the body does not cooperate and sometimes mind.

This teaches us that we should not carry drug pictures in the mind, rather use the rubric to their merit.
BUSINESS; neglects his (2) Op, Sul	Op An Op patient has no issue till things are under their limit. So they can neglect it. For example, a patient who is sick for the last 2 days, due to which they are not able to perform their business. It does not going to bother them. Till this state they are neglecting it. But on the 3rd day when the problem does not get better, they start feeling concern about the business. On the same day they think of visiting the doctor, as they realize that it is already two days gone without any income and if it continues to be like this then they suffer more loses. On the 3rd -4th day when the visit the doctor, they say, "Doctor, please see that, I should get better by today evening or maximum by tomorrow morning, as I have not attended my business for the last couple of days, which is the only source of my. income and survival, and if I will not attend it tomorrow then my loses are going to increase."
	Sul A Sul patient keeps on working even if the problem is severe. He says," Doctor, I have to work, as I cannot afford to lie in bed." He is not going to relax till they have strength to do so. This they could do because of perseverance. Sul patient must work due to the fear of poverty. Then what makes them to neglect the business? It is when they feel that there is no strength left in the body that they need to relax. That time they can neglect their business, as they think that at present they have some money in the bank or home, and with that they can survive for some days.

There could be some patients who lose the interest towards their responsibility. It could be due to Fatigue Some past grievances Lack of time Lack of money or it is too much for them.	He says I was always looking after my responsibilities and make sure that I must fulfill them no matter how busy or how difficult it was for me. But after the sickness I have lost the feeling to fulfill my responsibility, like earlier I would visit my parents every week and buy some fruits and vegetables for them, but now I do not have such a feeling.

ADMONITION; agg (9): Bell, calc, care, kali-c, nit-ас, nux-v, plat	What is the difference between admonition aggravation and kindly aggravation? Admonition: Gentle or friendly reproof; counseling against a fault or error; expression of authoritative advice; friendly caution or warning. Aggravation: The act of increasing in severity or add something to a wrong and enhancing its guilt. Kindly: Human; sympathetic; beneficent or to be soft towards others.	If someone like family member, friend or neighbor shows their emotions in a way of friendly advice for the sake of protection or safety then one should not mind it. Usually such situation comes in life very often. Depending upon the nature of a person one can react to it on their own way. A patient takes it in a different way. It could be due to ego, pride, or haughtiness that they do not want to have any reproof from their near or dear one or even from their close friends. They behave awkwardly towards it. So a simple admonition we can say is done in an authoritative way and a bit harsh, whereas kind admonition is done with a feeling of compassion, pity or sorrow for others misfortune or suffering.
