We are the victims of ‘Herd Mentality’
imposed on us by the society
![Page 3: Public health – an unexplored career option - By Dr.Tanmay Bagade](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042707/58ed35aa1a28aba67c8b45c9/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
“Uddharet aatmana aatmaanam naaatmaanam awasadayet”
Bhagwad Geeta 6.5
‘We have to work towards uplifting ourselves using our strengths,
rather than degrading ourselves by criticising the world’
![Page 4: Public health – an unexplored career option - By Dr.Tanmay Bagade](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042707/58ed35aa1a28aba67c8b45c9/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
After BAMS??
• Post Graduation (many times in subjects which
we get, not what we choose)
• Teaching job
• Modern Clinical practice & Surgery –
thousands of hurdles, restrictions, confusion in
laws??
• Ayurvedic Practice – Has more waiting period
than modern practice, so Needs Patience and
community which accepts ayurved.
