Epilepsy, or, as it was called in the old days, falling disease, has always frightened people and caused ambiguous attitudes towards those suffering from it. Epileptic seizures not only look ambiguous, but also come suddenly and unpredictably. An attack in an epileptic can be triggered by many factors - flashes of light, loud sounds, nervous shocks, strong feelings, emotions, or feelings of fear or joy. Even fun or long-awaited good news can cause the patient to go into a fit.
Of course, such a disease caused fear and ambivalence. The disease was considered a curse, the result of damage or stronger witchcraft. In some areas, epilepsy was mistaken for the mark of the devil. Of course, people tried to protect their children and themselves from such a disease. And those who had already encountered it sought healing and consolation. Of course, those suffering found them in prayer.
Are there many such prayers?
Over the centuries of the existence of Christianity, people have developed more than one prayer for epilepsy. There are an extremely large number of such texts, and they are addressed not only to the Lord, the Mother of God, but also to the saints.
The number of variants of prayers is innumerable, since in each village, hamlet or hamlet, the people developed their own texts, passed down through generations, just like epics or legends. In addition to the prayers compiled by the people, there were also those compiled by clergy at the request of believers. These texts were generic and passed on through generations within the family. As a rule, such prayers were in demand among the merchant class.
Of course, every person faced with this disease has his own prayer born in his soul. A request for health expressed in your own words, coming from a pure heart and pronounced with deep faith, is always the most effective.
Who to pray to
In the old days, people prayed to various saints, asking them to get rid of illness or protect them from its occurrence. People who had cases of the disease in their family asked for protection for their children. Such requests were usually addressed to the Lord himself.
Mothers who experienced a difficult birth, during which the baby was injured, also asked. Those women whose husbands did not have a good disposition or abused alcohol also prayed for protection from the development of epilepsy. As a rule, they turned to the Mother of God.
The saints asked for healing from illness. It is traditionally believed that such requests should be addressed to Saint Tryphon. Prayer for epilepsy to this saint has been offered since the time of Russia’s adoption of the Christian faith. They prayed to Tryphon for healing not only in Rus', but also in other countries. Belief in the help of this saint is associated with the legends that during his lifetime Tryphon healed a girl from epilepsy. In addition to Tryphon, Saint Matrona also prayed for recovery. And in Catholicism, a prayer is traditionally said to St. Vitus for epilepsy and other nervous and mental illnesses. In European countries, there is a tradition of putting on children who are prone to this disease a medallion with the image of the patron saint Vitus.
Water spells for epilepsy
For a long time in Rus', healers considered epilepsy a disease with destructive energy that was transmitted to the victim’s body in different ways. Curses, spells, dry spells and conspiracies were used. The brain of a patient with epilepsy absorbed the information of the ill-wisher and stopped fully perceiving daylight. An aura appeared, and after a few minutes, less often hours, a convulsive attack occurred. The victim's astral body was corrupted; the loss of vital energy increased.
In magic there are enough methods to rid a patient of convulsive seizures and loss of astral energy. They are not used in modern medicine.
Traditional medicine provides its followers with many conspiracies to get rid of illness. One of them is a conspiracy against epilepsy .
Epilepsy and generational curse:
Each of us has a family tree. There will definitely be a place for a family curse on this tree. Sooner or later it will make itself felt and its destructive power can give impetus to the development of such a disease as epilepsy. Energy damage affects the patient’s brain. People who are angry, greedy, and unrestrained are more susceptible to it. A spiritual person is less likely to suffer from epilepsy and its course is much milder. It is difficult, but possible, to neutralize a negative impulse.
Interesting facts about epilepsy:
Fools and some prophets suffered from epilepsy. The holy fools were endowed with the gift of deciding the fate of people and even humanity as a whole, predicting future events. These ascetics often suffered from epileptic seizures. Among them is John the Fool. He became famous for predicting the siege of Moscow by the Poles and saving the city.
Login Kochkarev predicted their fate for many. Repeatedly after attacks and deep sleep. He predicted the War of 1812, as well as the war in the Caucasus.
After an attack, the great Chopin in a dream saw the afterlife and the souls of the dead, who predicted various events in the life of the great composer.
George Sand and Emerson Garrington had the gift of foresight.
This disease is mysterious and not fully understood. 6% of cases have sick relatives in their family. The whole world is filled with epileptics - there are 20 million of them.
Not all seizures are epilepsy. Often convulsions accompany diseases such as common flu, injuries, and poisoning. The frequency of attacks is influenced by the phases of the moon, especially the full moon and magnetic storms.
Drug treatment alone is clearly not enough. A pill will help someone, while another patient will be healed by a spell or other magical ritual.
Provide each patient with his own treatment and the “epileptic” condition will recede for a long time.
Who lives in the soul of a patient with epilepsy - an angel or a demon?
Patients with epilepsy live among us. Often in everyday life they feel the need for outside help and care. It is very important that a spiritual person helps the epileptic. Then demons will not be able to penetrate the soul of the patient and tempt him.
It is necessary to create and develop bright images in the patient’s mind so that the guardian angel will protect the patient on his path. In the period between attacks, the patient is protected from fears and anxiety, otherwise demons approach the soul, dumping all the negativity into it.
For a patient with epilepsy, this is especially difficult: there is no strength, all the energy goes to the enemy. If attacks are repeated quite often, then epilepsy is progressing.
For epilepsy, a stone spell will provide real help to the patient.

The ashes from the coals are blown into a cup, and then the coals themselves are placed there. “Our Father” over the water and give it to the sick person to drink from a cup 3 times. After 11 days, the treatment is repeated. Seizures usually stop after the first time if everything is done with faith in a cure.
Ritual for epilepsy:
Buy a thick yellow candle on Wednesday. On Friday morning, burn this candle on both sides, holding it over a bowl of spring water, so that the melted wax falls into the water. When there is only one inch left of the candle, blow it out and say:
“The fever came from both ends, it didn’t get there, it all came out in tears.”
Sew this candle into fabric or leather and instruct the patient to carry this talisman with him all the time. Pour out the remaining water, and bury the melted wax in an old, abandoned grave.
We read conspiracies for epilepsy.
For severe convulsions of an epileptic seizure, they use a hex using the crumb of fresh white bread. Roll out a large piece of crumb onto the arms, legs, chest and stomach. Then wrap it in a clean rag (preferably white) and take it to the crossroads exactly at midnight.
Say the spell three times:
“Holy goodwill, take bread and salt, and heal and forgive the servant of God (the name given at baptism). Amen"
You can also roll out the disease with a piece of dough kneaded with water and honey.
In the patient's home, place three church candles on a table covered with a clean white tablecloth. Place a loaf of black bread on a white plate in the middle of the table and read:
“I will pray to the Lord God, I will worship the Mother of God. I will turn to all the holy apostles for help. I call, angels of the Lord, come to my aid. The Mother of God covered me (the servant of God) with her sacred robe, removed the black disease, and sent me behind the white - flammable stone. You, evil black disease, go away, disappear. I, the servant of God (name), will not be sick, I will not suck my blood, I will not break my joints.”
How to pray
Prayer for epilepsy is no different from other requests of people with whom they come to church. This means that there are no restrictions for believers who want to turn to the Lord with a prayer for healing or protection from illness.
You can pray at any time. The text of the prayer does not matter; you can turn to the Lord for help in your own words. The place in which a person prays is not so important. However, the atmosphere of the temple helps the worshiper to tune in to the right mood, clear his thoughts and find the most sincere words.
Priests recommend praying in churches, where the energy of the room not only strengthens the request of the believer, but also gives the person strength. Churchmen also believe that when asking for healing, you need to light a candle in front of the image and order a prayer service for health. These actions are needed not by the Lord, but by the parishioners themselves. Psychologically, they strengthen a person and give him confidence in the effectiveness of prayer. It’s as if the words spoken in front of the images are being reinforced.
Let's pray to God...
When turning to the Saints and the Lord God for help, one should firmly believe in the power of holy prayer. Before you pray for health, you should think about your life, about your sins and the desire to improve, to improve your life in accordance with the Commandments of our Lord. You need to say prayer with faith and hope for the help of our Savior.
Prayers for healing from epilepsy are read in cycles of nine days, morning and evening, the prescribed number of times.
Before you begin to pray, you need to wash and dress in light clothes, and light a church candle on the table in front of you. You can place fresh flowers near the candle.
When reading prayers, no one and nothing should distract you; you should be completely alone in the room!

First of all, the prayer “Our Father” is read, then the prayer to the Mother of God, then the prayer “Holy Trinity” is repeated three times and an appeal to your Guardian Angel or the Saint whose name you bear. They are considered your main intercessors before the Lord.
The following special prayer is said to Saint Martha:
“Oh Saint Martha! Miracle-working virgin! I turn to you for mercy. And be a helper in my hardships, and an intercessor in my trials. With gratitude I promise you that I will constantly read this prayer. I humbly ask you to console me in my sorrows and sorrows. I ask you tearfully - take care of me and my family, so that we preserve our God in our souls and thereby deserve the Eternal Salvation of the Saved Almighty Mediation, first of all, with the concern that now burdens me (then you need to express your desire and your sorrow that worries you most of all at the moment) I pray for you, Helper in any need, I ask you to overcome my hardships.”
The wish must be expressed day after day in the same words, it should sound exactly the same. If you have not learned the prayer by heart, you need to rewrite it in your own hand and read it from a sheet of paper. You cannot pass on your prayer to anyone, and you cannot use the same prayer for several desires.
Do such prayers help?
Prayer for epilepsy is effective and efficient not only for a believer, but also for one who is full of doubts about the power of the Lord. It is not uncommon for doctors treating or observing epileptics, as well as those suffering from other nervous diseases, to recommend visiting temples.
The beneficial effect of being in church on human health is associated with the special atmosphere that reigns in the prayer halls. For modern medicine, the nervous nature of epileptic seizures is no secret. This means that the more a person worries and fears an attack, the more likely it is to occur. Visiting church calms the nerves, pacifies the soul and purifies the thoughts of all people, regardless of the strength of their faith.
Mothers who fear for the health of their children or who want to save their children from an existing illness should also visit churches and pray. Even in the absence of faith, visiting church will relieve a woman of the stress she is under and relieve her of the constant fear of expecting an attack. Children subtly sense the mood of their parents, and this is an extremely important point. The fear with which mothers are imbued is felt by children and often becomes the very factor that causes seizures.
Other unconventional techniques
Indian yogis offer their own methods of treating the disease. They believe that all diseases are concentrated in the intestines, so in order to be cured, you need to thoroughly rinse it and improve its functioning.
To do this, rinse the intestines with warm water for a week (you can use a decoction of medicinal herbs). Carry out the procedure for a week, increasing the amount of water by half a liter every day (every two days - a break)
Repeat treatment after a month, then after two, after three, after four, after five and after six months. In the future, the course of treatment should be carried out every six months.
Healers and healers recommend to stop an attack of epilepsy by sharply stepping on the left little finger. The seizure is believed to stop quickly.
A. Strelnikova’s breathing exercises, which have proven themselves throughout the world as a panacea for many diseases, give positive results. Systematic implementation of a set of these exercises will not only significantly improve the patient’s condition, but will also help to fully recover.
Today, official medicine also offers some unusual methods of treatment. Thus, aromatherapy, acupuncture, and amber applications help with epilepsy. It is well known that the sun stone has the gift of curing certain diseases. And in fact, it consists of useful elements that have a beneficial effect on human health.

How to pray to Tryphon
A prayer for epilepsy to Saint Tryphon could be like this:
- “Martyr Most Holy Tryphon! I fall to you and pray not to leave me in trouble, to help me find healing from epilepsy. Do not leave the holy martyr without consolation, take care of me (name) and show the path to health for body and soul. Don’t leave, miracle worker, without help, condescend to my prayer, don’t leave me in worries and sorrows, grant healing, amen.”
You can pray to Tryphon not only to grant healing for yourself, but also to gain health for your loved ones:
- “The Most Holy Wonder-Working Martyr of Christ Tryphon! Hear me (name), help me in times of difficult trials and troubles. Deliver us from dashing misfortune and grant health to God’s servant(s) (the name of the sick person)! Help, great miracle worker, show the power of our Lord, Jesus Christ, and deliver us from the epileptic scourge now and for many years to come. Do not leave without help, do not allow the souls to be swallowed up by the cruel scourge of demons, grant a long life to the glory of the Lord, amen.”
Of course, you can ask the holy wonderworker for help in your own words. The prayer with which a believer turns to higher powers should be simple and understandable to the person asking. The power of prayer lies in a person’s faith, and not in what particular text he voices in front of the icons.
Orthodox believers pray to the martyr Tryphon for epilepsy
The martyr Tryphon became famous thanks to the fact that by the power of faith he was able to heal the daughter of Emperor Gordian. But life was not easy for Christians at that time: persecution, arrests, and executions occurred everywhere. Tryphon also did not escape this fate. But he accepted his fate bravely.
The martyr Tryphon did not experience pain and now helps believers overcome their illnesses.
The faith in this brave man turned out to be so strong that he did not experience pain when he was beaten, cut and burned. As a result, the saint's head was cut off, but his relics continued to work miracles.
Martyr Tryphon helps get rid of epilepsy
The following prayer is addressed to the martyr for epilepsy:
Oh, holy martyr of Christ Tryphon, quick helper to all who come running to you, and to those who pray before your holy image, quick to obey the intercessor! Hear now and at every hour the prayer of us, who honor your holy memory in this all-honorable temple, (by creating for the praise of your holy name), and intercede for us before the Lord in every place.
For you, saint of Christ, holy martyr and wonderworker Tryphon, who shone forth in great miracles, before your departure from this mortal life, you prayed for us to the Lord and asked him for this gift:
If anyone, in any need, misfortune, sadness or illness of soul or body, begins to call on your holy name, he will be delivered from every excuse of evil.
And just as you were once the daughter of the Tsar, in the city of Rome I was tormented by the devil, you healed her, her and us from his fierce machinations all the days of our life, especially on the day of our last breath intercede for us.
Be then our helper, and a quick drive away of evil spirits, and a leader to the Kingdom of Heaven, where you now stand among the saints at the Throne of God.
Pray to the Lord, that we may also be worthy to be partakers of everlasting joy and joy, and that together with you we may be worthy to glorify the Father and the Son and the Holy Comforter of the Spirit forever and ever. Amen.
How to pray to Matrona
The prayer for epilepsy to Saint Matrona is traditionally read by women who are worried about the health of their loved ones. The prayer of this saint is popularly considered one of the most effective. During her lifetime, Matronushka healed many people with the power of prayers; it is not surprising that even after death the saint helps believers in their aspirations and concerns.
An example of a prayer to Matrona:
- “Blessed Elder, Holy Matronushka of Moscow! Help me, don’t leave me to grieve in illness. Falling sickness plagues (the name of the sick person), eats up the soul. It deprives epilepsy of the joys and strength of life, does not allow you to sleep or eat. Help the old woman, send healing, in the name of the Lord, amen.”
Often, relatives of a sick person come to the relics of Matrona with water and then give it to the sick person. It is impossible to say how effective this is, but clergy do not see such actions as manifestations of superstition or contradictions to faith. The relics of Matronushka are located in the Intercession Stauropegial Convent.
How to pray to Our Lady
Prayers for epilepsy in children have been addressed by mothers to the Mother of God for centuries. This is not surprising, because who, if not the Mother of God, will help children find health?
An example of a prayer to the Mother of God can be given as follows:
- “Heavenly Mother, all-merciful intercessor! I fall to you, I trust in your boundless mercy. I pray to you, Mother of God, help me with this difficult misfortune. I am seriously suffering from the illness of my child (name). My child fell ill with epilepsy, as if I were with him. Help, all-merciful Queen of Heaven, restore the strength to live, grant health to the child (name), and free my heart from grief and despair. Give me peace and strengthen my faith, amen.”
How to Pray to the Lord
Of course, the most powerful prayer for epilepsy is addressed to the Lord himself.
Here is an example of a prayer:
- “Lord Almighty! Do not leave me in times of trouble, give me strength to overcome adversity and strengthen faith in my heart. Send down relief, take away an unbearable burden - an unclean, epileptic disease. Deliver, Lord, from evil misfortune, grant health. Forgive me, Lord, the sins for which you punish me with an unbearable burden. Do not leave my soul without your mercy. Don't let me die. Do not leave your Kingdom without and give strength to fight for health, amen.”
