The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

Sometimes sympathy is shown in such a way that the patient is made more ill. I have always seen that the children of grand people are more subject to illness than others, because for the slightest indisposition there is the doctor, and the treatment, and the remedies and the bed prepared and also the nice dishes. If we say to a wounded or sick person, "How ill you are. How very bad your condition is," his thought is drawn to his bad state, and he becomes worse. Whatever his condition is, we should say, "It is nothing very bad. It will be better." This is psychologically.
