"医者は患者に対して不透明であり、鏡のように、自分に示されたもの以外は何も見せてはいけない。"
Simplified meaning
Doctors should stay neutral and not let their own feelings or opinions affect how they treat their patients. When a patient comes in with a problem, the doctor should focus on what the patient shows or tells them, without adding their own emotions or judgments. Imagine if you have a broken arm and are very scared. A good doctor will stay calm and not show worry, which will help you feel more comfortable.
If a doctor starts to panic or gets upset, it could make the patient even more anxious. Think about when a teacher listens to you without getting upset if you make a mistake, making it easier for you to learn and correct it. In the same way, a doctor’s calm and clear approach helps patients feel safe and trust the advice given. This way, patients get the care they need without extra stress from the doctor's reactions.
