“Even at odd hours in midnight, if someone knocks my door, I can sense what intensity of pain would
have led him to me and hence I never mind to help and render my service to cure him”
Addhi ratre koi maro darwajo khakhdave, to hu samji saku chu ke amne ketlu asahay dard che ke addhi
ratre mane jagade che, tyare hu kai pan kari ne amne madad karvani faraj bajavis.
Popularly known as “Sadhu Vedic” in neighbouring villages for his herbal knowledge,
Mogjibhai Manjibhai Damor (54) has developed various herbal formulations for curing diseases
in animals and human beings, of particular mention being the medicine for treating fracture in
animals.
Mogjibhai is an illiterate farmer possessing two acres of land from which he earns the living for
his family of seven. Along with farming, he is also engaged in providing his services to cure
animals and humans from diseases without any selfish motive. His wife is also illiterate, but she
has closely observed her husband and learnt many things from her. So much so that if
Mogjibhai is not around, she can provide a suitable remedy for certain ailments. Mogjibhai has
developed a number of formulations for animals, human and plants like for bloat, fracture,
diarrhoea in animals, for pest control in plants and diarrhoea in human beings. He has been
serving the community of nearby fifteen villages for over twenty five years now with all his
knowledge.
