IMA Prayer

"May everybody be happy,
May everyone of us see to it
that nobody suffers from any pain and sorrow.
I do need ask for crown
Nor do I wish to be in heaven or reborn,
I only want to alleviate suffering of those people who are burning
in the fire of sorrow.
We the members of Indian Medical Association stand here to salute our National Flag, its honor and glory shall be our light & strength and its course shall be our course. We pledge our allegiance to it and realizing our responsibilities as the accredited members of this national organization, we swear we will dedicate everything in our power to see it fly high in the comity of Nations.
