There are two ways of healing diseases, the material
way and the spiritual way. The first is the remedies
of the physician; the second prayers and turning one's
self to God. Both must be practiced and followed.
The diseases that happen to be caused by physical accident
are cured by medical aid; others, which are due
to spiritual causes, will disappear by spiritual means.
For instance: For a disease due to grieving, fear, nervous
impressions, the spiritual remedies will take more
effect than the physical. Therefore, these tow kinds of
remedies must be followed; neither is an obstacle to the
other. You must take care of the physical remedies.
These also came from the bounty and mercy of God
who revealed and made evident the science of medicine,
so that His servants may also be benefited by this mode
of healing. In the same way take care of the spiritual
healing, because it giveth wonderful results.

And if thou art looking for the divine remedy
which will cure the spirit of man of all diseases and
make him obtain the health of the divine Kingdom,
know that it is the precepts and teaching of God. Take
the greatest care of them.
