Plato's Mantra


The cure of a part should not be attempted without the treatment of a whole. No attempt should aim to cure the body without the soul. If the head and body are to be healed, then you must begin by curing the mind – that is the first thing.

Let no one persuade you to cure the head until they have first given you their soul to be cured, for this is the great error of our day in the treatment of the human body – that the physicians first separate the soul from the body.

- Plato -
(427-348 BC)
