చచ్చే రోగికి మందు పట్టదు

This proverb highlights three conditions that prevent a person from sleeping: a Yogi (spiritual person) stays awake for meditation or divine connection; a Rogi (sick person) cannot sleep due to physical pain or discomfort; and a Bhogi (pleasure-seeker) stays awake to indulge in sensory or material enjoyments. It is used to describe situations where different motivations or conditions lead to the same outcome of sleeplessness.

This expression is used to convey that while illnesses can be cured with medicine, death is inevitable when a person's natural time or lifespan comes to an end. It highlights the limitations of medical science against the natural cycle of life and destiny.

This proverb highlights that three types of people find it hard to sleep, albeit for different reasons: the 'Yogi' (ascetic) is awake in meditation or spiritual pursuit, the 'Bhogi' (pleasure-seeker) is awake indulging in luxuries or out of fear of losing them, and the 'Rogi' (sick person) is awake due to physical pain or discomfort.

This expression emphasizes that solutions must be specific to the problem at hand to be effective. It is used to convey that generic efforts are useless unless they directly address the root cause or the specific requirements of a situation.

This proverb describes a cognitive bias where a person's own perspective, prejudices, or mental state colors their perception of reality. Just as a jaundice patient sees everything through a yellow tint due to their illness, a person with a biased mind assumes everyone else has the same flaws or intentions that they themselves possess.

This proverb is used to describe a biased or prejudiced perspective. Just as a jaundice patient perceives everything as yellow due to their own condition, a person with a particular mindset or flaw project their own views, suspicions, or faults onto others, failing to see the objective truth.

This proverb highlights the futility of certain actions in specific circumstances. It suggests that a truly generous person will give without requiring formal documentation or legal proof, and similarly, no amount of medicine can save someone whose death is certain. It is used to describe situations where rules or remedies become irrelevant due to the inherent nature of the person or the inevitability of the outcome.

This expression is used to describe how people who are suffering or in a weak state tend to be irritable, impatient, or easily annoyed. It serves as a reminder to be patient and empathetic with those who are unwell, as their physical discomfort often manifests as bad temper.

This proverb describes how both extreme suffering and extreme pleasure can lead to sleeplessness. A sick person (rogi) is kept awake by physical pain or discomfort, while a person indulging in luxuries and worldly pleasures (bhogi) is often too excited, distracted, or busy with enjoyment to find rest.

This proverb is used to describe a situation where someone's own bias, negative mindset, or illness prevents them from appreciating something good or truthful. Just as a physical illness can distort one's sense of taste, a mental or emotional prejudice can make a person perceive a good thing as bad.
