The Power of the Holy SpiritThe most potent means of healing is the Power of the Holy Spirit.... This does not depend on contact, nor on sight, nor uponpresence.... Whether the disease be light or severe, whetherthere be a contact of bodies or not, whether a personal connectionbe established between the sick person and the healeror not, this healing takes place through the power of the HolySpirit.—Some Answered Questions, p. 295.In a talk with Miss Ethel Rosenberg, in October 1904, ‘Abdu’l-Bahásaid:—The healing that is by the power of the Holy Spirit needsno special concentration or contact. It is through the wishor desire and the prayer of the holy person. The one who issick may be in the East and the healer in the West, and theymay not have been acquainted with each other, but as soonas that holy person turns his heart to God and begins to pray,the sick one is healed. This is a gift belonging to the HolyManifestations and those who are in the highest station.Of this nature, apparently, were the works of healing performedby Christ and His apostles, and similar works of healinghave been attributed to holy men in all ages. Both Bahá’u’lláh and‘Abdu’l-Bahá were gifted with this power, and similar powersare promised to Their faithful followers.
