"Pure air, sunlight, temperance, rest,
exercice, proper diet, the use of water, trust in divine power - these
are the true remedies. Every person should have a knowledge of nature's
remedial agencies and how to apply them. It is essential both to understand
the principles involved in the treatment of the sick and to have a practical
training that will enable one rightly to use this knowledge."
Ministry of Healing, p. 127.
"It is not only the privilege but the
sacred duty of all to understand the laws God has established in their
beings... And as they more fully understand the human body... they will
seek to bring their bodies into subjection to the noble powers of the mind.
The body will be regarded by them as a wonderful structure, formed by the
Infinite Designer, and given in their charge to keep this harp of a thousand
strings in harmonious action."
Mind, Character and Personality, p.
374.
"The mind controls the whole man. All
our actions, good or bad, have their source in the mind that worships God
and allies us to heavenly beings... All the physical organs are the servants
of the mind, and the nerves are the messengers that transmit its orders
to every part of the body, guiding the motions of the living machinery...
The harmonious action of all the parts
- brain, bone, and muscle - is necessary to the full and healthful development
of the entire human organism.
The electric power of the brain, promoted
by mental activity, vitalizes the whole system, and is thus an invaluable
aid in resisting disease." Mind, Character and Personality, p. 396.
"A continual transgression of nature's
law is a continual transgression of the law of God." Mind, Character and
Personality, p. 416.
