Incurable Master

I cannot get over how the Master said he was "incurable" and "when Stravinsky says that he will restore me to life, I don't believe him". In what sense is he incurable? He cannot be cured because he has already written his novel, and his beliefs do not die. The circumstances that he is living in cause him to be incurable. It is not that he is mad, but that he cannot change who he is. The circumstances he lives in causes him to be considered ill. He's mental state progress throughout the book. He goes from rage, to depression, to being incurable. He finally finds a place of contentment with staying where he is though. I find this interesting that he just kind of gives up and accepts that he's incurable and must stay there.
