Mary Baker Eddy

Mary Baker Eddy (1821–1910) was an American spiritual leader and founder of Christian Science, a religious movement emphasizing healing through prayer and understanding of God's spiritual nature. She believed that true health comes from aligning one’s consciousness with divine principles and that illness is a misconception that can be corrected through spiritual insight. Eddy authored "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," outlining her views on spirituality and healing. Her work has influenced many followers who seek a faith-based approach to health and well-being, emphasizing divine healing over medical treatment.
