Aphorism 50
Cure of natural disease by another natural disease is not reliable.
Up till now it is clear that cure of diseases can occur by eternal law of nature but this cannot be relied upon and intelligence of physician is required as nature at her - command has only few diseases like measles, small pox, cow pox (produced by lymph inoculated) which are of fixed character.
Natural diseases that cures existing diseases are-
1. Uncertain in appearance - which disease will attack which person depends on chance and is uncertain.
2. More dangerous and hazardous in character than the existing disease, as disease to cure needs to be similar and stronger in intensity.
3. Later disease requires curing after they themselves have cured the existing disease. 4. Organism has to suffer whole course of the later effected disease or wait for any other similar disease to cure it naturally. 5. The dose or power of disease is not under the control unlike medicines.
