Persian Medicine: Avesta about pathology and death, healing and wellbeing

The medical sciences were divided into several divisions, as stated in the Avesta.

Explanation:

According to the ancient text Avesta, all aspects of human beings including physical and spiritual need to be tackled in order for well-being or healing to be absolute and successful. However, as the spiritual nature imbues the physical one, spiritual well-being or healing enabled the human body to sustain or heal itself. Some of the healers named in the text are mentioned below:

One who heals with the mantra named Mantreh-Pezeshk. One who heals with plants named Gyaah-Pezeshk. One who heals with surgery named Kard-Pezeshk.
