Rudimental Divine Science

"Rudimental Divine Science" by Mary Baker Eddy is a late 19th-century book about Christian Science, a scientific text exploring the philosophy of prioritizing spiritual understanding over material reality. The book is about mind-healing and the nature of God in Christian Science, highlighting the link between spirituality and health. Eddy shares her beliefs about God as the infinite Mind and the source of all existence, arguing that real healing comes from understanding divine principles rather than physical treatments. She talks about how matter is not real, and how physical problems come from a false view of reality that can be fixed through spiritual understanding. Eddy stresses how important it is for the practitioner to think positively and lovingly for healing to work, arguing that the true sense of self comes from understanding one's connection to God. She also emphasizes that Christian Science should be based on love, selflessness, and humility, leading to a better state-of-mind and well-being.
