[HumJanenge] Re: Is corruption "good" and to be encouraged

Dear Vijay

A very pertinent question which I am responding to.

The human body is filled with "unclean", "bad", "poisonous" (ie.
"corrupt") substances.
The human being thrives / flourishes / grows BECAUSE of these
substances which are NECESSARY BY-PRODUCTS of growth.

A "cancer" is "unrestrained" growth. If detected in time, it can be
surgically removed.

So Yes, a small amount of cancer can be tolerated / managed if growth
continues.
