When we live our life with the three poisons of Greed, Hatred and Ignorance, we allow our mind and heart to be poisoned as well. We need to medicate ourselves and we do that by taking the three poisons and acknowledging them. After we acknowledge them we have to turn them around to their opposites, instead of greed show generosity instead of hatred show compassion instead of ignorance use wisdom. This is the medication of life, the way to cure us of the three poisons and live a life of peace.
