The legal definition of healthiness and illness is important philosophical issues that have been introduced as a psychic qualities witch does not belong to body and only exists for the sole. But in current definitions of health and illness, focuses are on the body and its function. Medical science mainly tries to cure body diseases. Medical problems such as incurable diseases and the prolongation of the treatment process in some apparently well-known diseases create the suspicion that the explanation of health and disease needs to be changed. This article studied the health and illness in philosophies based on the authenticity of existence, especially transcendental wisdom, with a descriptive-analytical and library method. The result was that it is better to explain health and illness as a way of existence or manifestation of beings. Considering the priority and comprehensiveness of the soul means sole is the agent of health and disease control. Therefore sole should be paid attention to improve cure. The use of common drugs are only for sole-improvement. Among the consequences of this change is the introduction of treatment for incurable diseases. In the treatment of curable diseases, it is expected to shorten the treatment process and reduce treatment costs.
