The SPIRITPhilippus
Aureolus
Theophrastus Bombast von
Hohenheim
, known as Paracelsus, was a sixteenth-century Renaissance Swiss physician. Along with his esteemed medical theories, he held that imagination and faith were the cause of healing power.
He said…….Slide12
The SPIRIT
Man has a visible and an invisible workshop. The visible one is his body, the invisible one is the imagination of the mind…. The spirit is the master, imagination the tool, and the body the plastic material. The power of the imagination is the great factor in medicine. It may produce diseases in man and it may cure them. Ills of the body may be cured by physical remedies or by the power of spirit acting through the soul. (

The SPIRIT
Sir William Osler was one of North America’s busiest and most famous physicians. He said “Faith in the gods or saints cures one, faith in little pills another, hypnotic suggestion a third, faith in a plain common doctor a fourth…. The faith with which we work…. has its limitations [but] such as we find it, faith is the most precious commodity, without which we should be very badly off. (1953)”. (
