One can succeed in pulling oneself out, so to
say, from the disease, in withdrawing from it,
in cutting off the relation one had with it; and
then suddenly one emerges above this feeling of
unease, disorder and confusion and realises that
one is cured. But sometimes it is enough even to
remember, a movement of surprise is enough, a
memory of what it was is enough for everything
to be reversed once more and for one to have to
begin the same work over again. Sometimes one
has to begin again thrice, four times, ten times,
but the second time they no longer do it well, and
the third time they don’t do it at all; and they tell
you, “Oh! One cannot be cured by occult means,
the divine Force doesn’t cure you, it is better to
take medicines.” So for these, it is better to go to
the doctor because this means that they have no
spiritual perseverance and only material means
can convince them of their effectiveness.

When one wants to change something of the
material life, whether the character or the
functioning of the organs or habits, one must
have an unfaltering perseverance, be ready to
begin again a hundred times the same thing with
the same intensity with which one did it the first
time and as though one had never done it before.
