Excerpt from Butler's System of Physical Training, the Lifting Cure In laying before the public a new philosophy of physical culture, and a new method of cure, we do not claim that we have comprehended the whole of truth in its relations to the human organism in health and disease: we have simply discovered certain fundamental laws, eternal as the universe, and underlying the possibility of harmonious development and cure, together with the method of their application. We have thus opened a wide field for investigation and study. These laws are simple, their application complete. The curative power is inherent in the human organism. To develop and increase this inherent power by a proper action of the organs themselves is the only curative method. In development and cure, each individual must "work out his own salvation." There is no vicarious atonement for physical sins, whether hereditary or otherwise, in special applications either of drugs or exercise. Special training, special dosing, the supposed immunity of the person from the effects of transgression of law, resulting from dependence on physicians and drugs, are ruining the world.
