What is Disease?

Perhaps, disease is a process of the body, on the way to attain a certain state, in which it is at relative ease. Maybe, if we do not accept the illness, the result is death. It is my surmise, that if one can endure a disease, instead of fighting it, one will grow to be immune, towards the disease. Every illness has a life span, and the disease cannot live longer than the patient. If we fight the illness, the illness becomes strong, and endures. It might be contemplated, that medicine should be an end, so that the patient endures and becomes stronger, and hence, the illness becomes weaker. One should not fight the illness, but allow it to run its course, in a depreciating scale, which is but a natural phenomenon, for all illness. The aim should not be to destroy the illness, but to heal the patient despite the illness. We may get rid of all trace of any illness, but another illness will take the place of the previous one. This is because, illness is not an abnormal phenomenon, but a process of life, which is temporary.
