A lesson in Community Medicine

In medical school, we used to have a subject called Community Medicine. But our elders practiced that even before modern medicine was born. My grandmother (dadi) used to say a beautiful thing:

"Jab tak gharon ki khirkion pe parde paRe rahain, mohalledari saanjhi rehti hai"!

Means: as far as the privacy of households are intact, the entire community stays united!
