Colonel Megor replied: "Why you are saying horrible? In your country ninety percent people are attacked malaria. So there, syphilis. So as a medical practitioner, so why you take this disease as bad or that disease as good? Your business is to see that there should be no disease. Don't consider in that way, that 'This disease is good, this disease is bad.' " That's nice explanation. But fifty years ago or hundred years ago syphilitic poison was very much prevalent. Still it is in Europe and America. And now it is spreading all over.
And in Āyur Veda it is said phairāṅga. Phairāṅga. Phiriṅgī. The Europeans are described in Vedic literatures as phiriṅgī, their name is phiriṅgī. So this syphilitic disease is mentioned in the Āyur Veda, the disease brought by the phiriṅgīs. And the doctor says that originally it was spread through dog. The unmarried girls, they keep dog for sex. You do not know? He knows. You will find very beautiful girl is keeping very big dog. They are trained to have sex life. And that is cause of syphilis. The dog is full of syphilitic germs. It is called phairaṅga in the Āyur Veda. And one who has got syphilitic germs, his life is doomed.
