While an advanced teacher of God wouldn't condemn illusory remedies, he'd also know what the Course says is true, and these four statements are like cornerstones of J's entire attitude about healing:
1 - Only salvation can be said to cure.
2 - Atonement does not heal the sick, for that is not a cure. It takes away the guilt that makes the sickness possible. And that is cure indeed.
3 - Being sane, the mind heals the body because it has been healed. The sane mind cannot conceive of illness because it cannot conceive of attacking anyone or anything.
4 - The ego believes that by punishing itself it will mitigate the punishment of God. Yet even in this it is arrogant. It attributes to God a punishing intent, and then takes this intent as its own prerogative.
