Baha'u'llah & the New Era by -J. Esslemont- 2 Para

"When the material world and the divine world are well correlated, when the hearts become heavenly and the aspirations pure, perfect connection shall take place. Then shall this power produce a perfect manifestation. Physical and spiritual diseases will then receive absolute healing." ('Abdul-Baha) (114:2)

"If the health and well-being of the body be expended in the path of the Kingdom, this is very acceptable and praiseworthy; and if it be expended to the benefit of the human world in general-- even.. to their material benefit-- and be a means of doing good, that is also acceptable. But if the health and welfare of man be spent in sensual desires, in a life on the animal plane.. then disease were better.. nay, death itself were preferable.. If thou art desirous of health, wish thou health for serving the Kingdom.." ('Abdul-Baha) (114:4)
