Challenges and mute: in one hundred the rough course of traditional Chinese medicine

The doctor of traditional Chinese medicine's crisis is fundamentally Chinese traditional culture, the fate of the crisis of traditional Chinese medicine is the destiny of the Chinese traditional culture is a miniature of...... Traditional Chinese medicine has is not just whether abolished's, but in the whole itself ideology, culture, is "the Chinese and western culture for" social thought important segment.

Since one hundred DuoNian, Chinese medicine have taken the difficult bumpy road is more, a few times in risk banned. Of course the doctor of traditional Chinese medicine's crisis is fundamentally Chinese traditional culture, the fate of the crisis of traditional Chinese medicine is the Chinese traditional culture is a microcosm of fate.

Confucian classics, history YuYue master is first put forward the abolition of traditional Chinese medicine

In late Ming and early qing dynasty, the 16 th century, western medicine began to was introduced into China. Western medicine is with the introduction of Christianity in China, and to bring the preacher, but the impact is not big early western medicine. Until the nineteenth century, with western medicine vaccinia vaccination method and surgery, eye treatment technology, this kind of influence to the spreading of the expanding of the impact of traditional Chinese medicine, also increasing. In 1822, the light, the qing government two years in too hospital abolished the acupuncture. In 1835, the American missionaries BoJia (PeterParker, 1804 1888) established in guangzhou first church hospital. After the opium war, the church hospital from coastal enter the mainland, in rapidly all over decades to build. With the introduction of western medicine, people began to the rationality of the traditional Chinese medicine had the question even deny.

The first man to abolish the doctor of traditional Chinese medicine's people put forward is YuYue. YuYue is a generation's master, in 1879 he published an article, topic calls "waste medical theory"; Then the medicine said "published, put forward" medical waste, and drugs do not try to waste "point of view. For the first time publicly rejected the government departments of traditional Chinese medicine occurred in 1912, the northern government rule, this is the famous "leakage of ministry of education in a column YiAn" events. The ministry of education was the first temporary education meeting through the education of the republic of China new law ". The "decree issued before and after two (November 1912 and January 1913), did not listed as" traditional Chinese medicine "education subject, but only listed the western medicine. At the time, cause strong protests's calls from traditional Chinese medicine on education plan will, but was the northern government education chief WangDaXie clear to refuse. Then the mood to placate's, and said that "the have abandoned the meaning of traditional Chinese medicine".

The government first put forward a abolished TCM is February 1929 the kuomintang government health first the central health committee meeting through the "repeal YiAn in", the proposal is YuYunXiu brought out, full name is "abolish the old to stop medical medical and health disorder case". By bill, by the strong resistance immediately's, again, this makes the most far more than 1912 years. Large Numbers of people in traditional Chinese medicine, protest climax is lobbying protest on March 17, 281 delegates to the national held in Shanghai on national medicine group congress, and set up a "national medical group federation", the composition to petition the group, send five delegates to nanjing petition, called for the immediate cancellation bill. The kuomintang government had to cancel the law. Later the's "3 · 17" as "GuoYi festival".

With the new culture movement "DE sir" and "advocating", put forward by a harsh critic of traditional culture, as part of the traditional culture of the Chinese medicine also inevitably was unprecedented criticism. Traditional Chinese medicine has is not just whether abolished's, but in the whole itself ideology, culture, is "the Chinese and western culture for" social thought important segment. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) as "old tradition, old culture", has been part of the critical or denied.

The founding YuYunXiu early in the national health work, meeting, continue to put forward "reforming the old medical steps" of the draft. The early 50 s, deputy minister of health wang bin, TCM is put forward, with the feudal medical should be the extermination of feudal society and destroy. Because chairman MAO zedong strongly support traditional Chinese medicine, and eventually the two vice minister of health wang bin and HeCheng been removed.

Since the reform and opening up, Chinese medicine in the policy level for support. In 1982, the new changes in the constitution proposed "the state develops medical and health services, the development of modern medicine and traditional Chinese medicine". However, the Chinese medicine is a moment of scientific debate did not stop. Some traditional Chinese medicine can't put forward with modern science to test, so the method of "Chinese medicine is the biggest pseudoscience".

More than years of traditional Chinese medicine, to the fate of the Chinese traditional culture and the fate is tied, precarious, along the way.

"Chinese hot" foreign and domestic "health preservation heat"

Modern science developed western countries, after the rejection letter from the traditional Chinese medicine of traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine to watch the process, and gradually began to appear "Chinese hot".

Don't experience the DuoNian two thousand of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) really vulnerable? No!!! On the contrary. Facing the challenge of western science culture, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) shows the tenacious vitality. Modern science developed western countries after the rejection letter from the traditional Chinese medicine of traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine to watch the process, and gradually began to appear "Chinese hot".

In April, 1973, for the first time in TCM acupuncture international have legal status, the first American Chinese medicine method in Nevada was born. After 30 DuoNian development, especially in recent 10 years, Chinese medicine culture communication expanded in the world, more and more countries, more and more people choose to use Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine study. Traditional Chinese medicine culture gradually by more and more countries, Chinese medicine identification as a valid medical care means is more and more countries into the health care system.

According to not complete count, the traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture in global 160 DuoGe countries have different degree of application, and in some countries have legal medical status. Overseas Chinese medicine and acupuncture practitioners about 300000-500000 person of the traditional Chinese medicine, medical institutions at least has more than 100000 homes. The United States will start from traditional Chinese medicine complementary and alternative medicine separated out, it will be as a complete and independent medical treatment system. Britain has nearly one 5 of the population often use medicine, traditional Chinese medicine and each year in medical consumer spending to amount to 130 million pound. Some countries will still TCM acupuncture into medical insurance category.

TCM education and scientific research of the foreign maintained a good momentum, at present had the seven normal university opened ZhongYiXi or traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), some countries also has approved run by the university of traditional Chinese medicine for formal education institutions, the famous American institution of 60% medical school to offer "alternative medicine" course, its content is also related to traditional Chinese medicine. The more than 80 TCM education institutions of higher. Some scientific research institutions abroad authority the traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture research project, several governments began to mass of traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture and moxibustion research funding. TCM science international cooperation projects more and more. Chinese herbal medicine and traditional Chinese medicine product international sales growth, 2006 TCM products export sales to $830 million.

Last year at the Beijing games, the Olympic village of traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese herbal medicine clinic opened to provide treatment, foreign athletes line up trying to ancient Chinese medicine therapy, Chinese traditional medicine, acupuncture, massage treatment get great welcome.

To look for the traditional Chinese medicine, people domestic enthusiasm remain high, medium of television by traditional Chinese medicine health lectures, keeping in good health for people welcome the sell like hot cakes. Folk to learn Chinese medicine present upsurge, some celebrity also visit study medicine.

The reasons behind the heat of traditional Chinese medicine health

First, traditional Chinese medicine has obvious, the exact curative effect; Second, the Chinese medicine is simple, cheap; Third, with traditional Chinese medicine health overall demand, accord with big ecological medical mode; Fourth, traditional Chinese medicine from the essence of Chinese culture, fit for our cultural tradition, close to the everyday life of the common people.

Why in the modern scientific progress, the height of modern medicine is highly developed and material life rich western countries lifted the height of traditional Chinese medicine hot? Why Chinese medicine health in China appeared instead unprecedented boom? I think basically has the following reasons:

First, traditional Chinese medicine has obvious, the exact curative effect. Curative effect is a hard truth. I attended a "about Chinese medicine characteristics and advantages of the investigation and research" project, the results showed that the traditional Chinese medicine, with safe, effective, low toxicity and advantage, through the syndrome differentiation and treatment of compound, with the principle of single herb medicine more superior than the overall adjustment function, thus the more powerful the various not corrected balance, for effective treatment for complex disease laid a foundation. Traditional Chinese medicine non-drug therapy using equipment or technique, play a comprehensive regulation and assist the whole function of the body's natural healing effect, emphasize because of the person of differentiation, of both doctors, pay attention to the interactive and method of practical, effective. Through the clinical investigation and combining with document research, diagnosis and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine found that many system, many good at more than organ, of the organization's overall lesions, good at the western medicine treatment tests, perspective, films but not diagnosis of the disease, such as dizziness, tired limbs weakness, tired, or heart palpitations, insomnia, forgetfulness, unknown fever, etc.; Because of sexual disease, heart disease, heart Such as impotence, the fine conversion or less, such as dysmenorrhea, amenorrhoea, infertility, menstrual period, less; extended After illness to recuperate, frail, both qi deficient, take the western medicine have allergic reaction and the side effects of traditional Chinese medicine treatment often can have the satisfaction of the curative effect of long-term service, not the curative effect of western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine to take often speed see curative effect. Acupuncture treatment migraine, waist and leg pains than western medicine has better curative effect. Many diseases lack of effective treatments to western medicine, this is the western country development is one of the main reasons for the traditional Chinese medicine.

Second, the Chinese medicine is simple, cheap. This is the cause of the economy. Foreign especially developed countries why to develop traditional Chinese medicine? In addition to the curative effect of traditional Chinese medicine, the outside is the main reason, medical treatment charge cheap. WHO's western Pacific regional traditional medical officials once said: "use than western medicine of traditional Chinese medicine in some way more cost-effective." Overseas Chinese medicine is considering reducing rapid development of health care costs. Because the government in citizen medical care financial burden, in order to save money, with a lower investment in order to get a good health care benefits, and the choice of Chinese medicine, acupuncture.

Third, with traditional Chinese medicine health overall demand, accord with big ecological medical mode, in line with the return to natural the world trend. The contemporary social disease patterns change, people health concept change, the modern medical pattern by biological mode to the biological, psychological, social and environmental pattern combined with change, modern medicine to cure disease idea from the prevention of disease and improve health, global advocate natural direction adjustment back to the nature and the trend of the further development of green environmental protection. Just fits the social demand of Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine is because most plants, animals as raw materials, less pollution, small side effects. And acupuncture, massage and the drug therapy more accord with this trend. As people living standard rise, ordinary people pay more and more attention to their health, people fear and become ill, and they can't afford to get sick, so started to pay more and more attention to health, traditional Chinese medicine "cure is not ill" the idea and method of ordinary people with this basic desire.

Fourth, traditional Chinese medicine from the essence of Chinese culture, fit for our cultural tradition, close to the everyday life of the common people. Traditional Chinese medicine health is built on the foundation of the Chinese culture. When the common people from "spring cover autumn aspic", "winter eat turnip summer eat ginger" feel this proverb containing the word of traditional Chinese medicine health, not only to the traditional Chinese medicine is kind of deep feelings, and is, it will have a high degree of identity.

Health is actually very simple, it is not want you to have to do something that has nothing to do with the daily life, health just is a daily life, is a healthy way of life. WHO, the world health organization about health have a data by way of life: caused health problems 60%, environmental and social factors accounted for 17%, genetic factors account for 15%, medical intervention accounted for only 8% to. Keeping in good health after all is to cultivate a good way of life, and turn it into a kind of life habit.

Source: traditional Chinese medicine for seeking the charm of culture

Chinese medicine culture of core values if with a word to summarize, that is "and"............. Traditional Chinese medicine said a man sick, and that it is not of Yin and Yang. How to cure? Yin and Yang is mixed. Cure is mixed the Yin and Yang!!!!

Traditional Chinese medicine is an important part of traditional Chinese culture. I think, Chinese medicine or Chinese excellent traditional culture, the representative of the fusion between the essence of buddhist culture, embodying the core values of the Chinese culture, show the charm of the Chinese culture. Chinese medicine culture of core values if with a word to summarize, that is "and".

The broad and profound Chinese culture with a diagram to say if that is "taiji PIC". "Taiji PIC" embodies the value concept of harmony of Yin and Yang, reflect the Yin and Yang growth, Yin and Yang transformation of the law. After the han dynasty, the Chinese traditional culture is Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, Japan. If use taiji diagram to illustrate three, so white part of it is, and the Confucian advocates of Confucian is Yang-vigorous determination, the spirit of striving, Taoist advocate Yin-under the weak, quiet unreal spirit. Of course Confucianism and tao is not quite two, but like taiji PIC Yin and Yang fish interaction together. To see the ancient Indian came from the buddhist, if use this piece of taiji diagram to explain, in what position? I asked a lot of people, and some say in two points, some say in the middle, and some say in the outside a circle could be right. Why? Because they are different view of buddhist. Not much discussed here. I'd like to say is Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, three are told "in", "and" speak.

In fact, the traditional culture inside, and that is also a physicians. Physicians is not only a medical technology, is also a kind of cultural philosophy. Traditional Chinese medicine is advocating Yin or Yang advocates? Traditional Chinese medicine is actually speak peace between Yin and Yang and Yin and Yang, or not. Can say Chinese medicine is the embodiment of the philosophy of Yin and Yang. Traditional Chinese medicine said a man sick, and that it is not of Yin and Yang. How to cure? Yin and Yang is mixed. Cure is mixed the Yin and Yang!!!! Someone is attacking Chinese medicine said a Yin and Yang is so simple!!!!! In fact the simple things more close to the essence of things. Traditional Chinese medicine is a kind of Yin and Yang and culture. Should the Chinese cultural history in our place.

After the han Chinese medicine also fusion between buddhist culture, in addition to the essence of mohism and concept, the Buddha has influenced the of "nature and humanity" way of thinking outside of traditional Chinese medicine, from Confucius Confucian there also accepts ethical thoughts, formed his own medical ethics norms. Traditional Chinese medicine there is a "medical is RenShu", the "benevolence" is the Confucian doctrine of "benevolence". So the Taoist? Traditional Chinese medicine from the Taoist there to receive health zhuangzi thoughts, Taoist heavy people born, your natural futility, xu jing and the thoughts and methods of traditional Chinese medicine health impact is significant. Of course, in turn, in traditional Chinese medicine, Confucian, Taoist and buddhist also have the opposite effect, this is an interactive process, not unilateral. In history, medicine, and word keeps a Buddha to medical treatment. If you push off again, the "book of changes" of Yin and Yang is the origin of the Chinese medicine theory philosophy.

The difference between the traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine is essentially cultural differences, the performance in the value concept, the thinking mode are different. Can use two ZhangTuLai instructions, the traditional Chinese medicine, western medicine is taiji diagram and contradiction to figure. In common is that are black and white, but different structure, the relationship between different. Traditional Chinese medicine to treat disease quasi-harmonics treatment, western medicine to take confrontational treatment. In the western opinion, must find the cause of the disease, and then will kill it. Traditional Chinese medicine is not so. I have a friend is the traditional Chinese medicine, he said that cancer experts of traditional Chinese medicine is not to kill the cancer cells for the purpose. If to kill the cancer cells for the purpose, so the curative effect of traditional Chinese medicine must catch up with the western medicine therapy, chemotherapy. Traditional Chinese medicine is to change the body of cancer cells produce environment, let the cancer cells don't attack. So although not heal cancer kill the cancer cells, but can extend the addition, relieve pain, improve the quality of life. Germany the year before a reports, a study is to look for cancer in after the cause of the spread of radiation and chemotherapy instead. The results of the study show that is the main cancer cells after be exterminated, supplemented by those who are not attack cancer cells originally, this all rushed out. Understandably, the therapy did not change the environment in cancer cells produce. The main therapy in traditional Chinese medicine of thought is change in environment, improve the cure, since the ability to repair. The human body is a very complex life system, not the west of binary opposition theory can explain. People are to have the ability of the cure can be self, traditional Chinese medicine is the use of Chinese medicine, acupuncture methods to inspire that self heal, self-adjustment ability.

To see is what to do with the traditional Chinese medicine health? TCM holds that a person's health standard is, is harmonious. To achieve the three "and" : the person and nature want harmony, and this is the harmony between man and nature; Want harmony between people, and this is the one I unity; Man, this call to harmonious heart and body. To achieve this level of three "and", is a healthy person. Huangdi said "method to the Yin and Yang, and in operation for" "Yin pingyang secret, spirit is put to", regulate the Yin and Yang, "to the flat for", reflect the Yin and Yang of the harmonious concept.

Forest and trees: the similarities and differences between Chinese and western medicine culture

Someone said: "Chinese medicine is to treat people, western medicine is cure." And some say: "Chinese medicine is see forest trees, and western medicine is see the forest for the trees." Although some of these statements, but on the whole traditional Chinese medicine sharp, pay attention to the macro, western medicine pay attention to specific,

Pay attention to the micro, is true.

Someone said: "Chinese medicine is to treat people, western medicine is cure." And some say: "Chinese medicine is see forest trees, and western medicine is see the forest for the trees." Although some of these statements, but on the whole traditional Chinese medicine sharp, pay attention to the macro, western medicine, pay attention to microcosmic, pay attention to specific is true.

SARS, the new century humanity in the first game of the plague disaster. When it all of a sudden, traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine when arouses the all the wisdom brave to face. Western medicine using micro, accurate method for SARS pathogen, now find out is a variation of the corona virus, and then use the latest molecular biology technology of this virus to sequencing, then, screening, development can kill this virus drugs; Traditional Chinese medicine is a macro, dialectical method, no matter what it is virus bacteria, all is one kind of evil, "SARS" belongs to WenBing category, according to the symptoms, physical information, can distinguish different "disease". And then the "disease" to the case. Western medicine treatment, need to find the confrontational enemy, and then create the targeted to kill the enemy weapons; Traditional Chinese medicine in the body with drugs enhance the healthy atmosphere of the adjustment of the human body, the ability to organize, to let the body-since the healthy atmosphere of the ability of organization to create a virus can't survive in the environment.

With the analysis method of westerners reduction on problems, with the method of speculation about the whole Chinese people look at problems. TCM the people as an integral whole, "body small universe, the big human body". In Chinese medicine, it seemed, the human body is a whole, the human body and the external environment is also a whole. The structure of the human body are mutual connection, indivisible, every function is co-ordination between, interacted on each other. And natural environment is also a close association between traditional Chinese medicine, natural environment, and has always attached great importance to the social environment of contact, pay great attention to the season, day and night, geographical environment, the influence of human body. Reflects the "nature and humanity", "heaven corresponding" eastern thought. This whole idea of traditional Chinese medicine through in physiology, pathology, ZhenFa, treatment and health and other all fields.

Treat disease, traditional Chinese medicine is to identify "disease", western medicine is to identify "disease". "Disease" is whole, macro "forest", "disease" is the specific, micro "trees". In the past, the Chinese medicine in modern scientific knowledge and no precision inspection instruments, invented a unique set of diagnosis, treatment of disease, the methods of "syndrome". First look, with smell, ask, cut four diagnostic methods to collect the patient the reflected objective information, and then based on the eight principles-Yin and Yang, list, the actual situation, the cold, zang-fu organs, blood and triple warmer, who treated, the comprehensive, blood gas analysis and induction, to find the root cause of the disease and the nature of the lesions, place and evil is, the relationship between the final judgment for some properties of the "disease". This process, called "syndrome" traditional Chinese medicine. According to distinguish "disease", then, to determine the appropriate treatment and medication, formula.

HuaTuoCeng Tuesday to two had had the headache body heat, symptoms exactly the same patient a doctor, for them, the a's in the case, a diarrhea in the FaHanYao. Someone mystified and asked, "why do the same symptoms will open the different recipes?" Hua tuo said: "the two is a real disease within, one is the real disease, so use a different syndromes of." The next day, two people's disease all good. In Chinese medicine, it seemed, different disease, can be the same "disease", also can use the same treatment; The same disease, can is different "disease", also can adopt different treatment methods. This is the traditional Chinese medicine said the "vision with disease to", "other disease development.

YiSheng ZhangZhongJing "typhoid miscellaneous diseases theory" is the first book of the clinical medical treatment based on syndrome classic. It created the system including the reason with French medicine, treatment based on syndrome principles, among them with the treatment of typhoid, argued treated with viscera syndrome miscellaneous diseases treatment, make the basic theory of TCM, and clinical practice in close integration with, laid the foundation of the TCM therapy for learning. Identify disease "disease" is accurate, directly related to the effect of prescription drugs.

ZhangZhongJing "typhoid miscellaneous diseases theory", it is our country the first treatment based on syndrome of clinical medical classics

Traditional Chinese medicine is paradox: science?

"Science" is not the criterion for testing truth, curative effect is testing medical standards. Isn't "scientific" have what relation? Any curative effect is the most important.

Those who advocate to cancel the traditional Chinese medicine, one of the biggest reason is that the "Chinese medicine not science" "TCM is pseudoscience". To answer this question is traditional Chinese medicine scientific, actually very simple, want to make clear what the "scientific" will be clear at a glance.

I have DuoCi said that, if the west about "science" in accordance with the definition of traditional Chinese medicine, of course not "science". Because strictly "science" is the seventeenth century Newtonian mechanics before some. This kind of "scientific" must meet the three requirements, it is logical reasoning, mathematics description, experiment, must have objectivity, precision and repeatability, verification. Just think in two thousand in China before the birth of the traditional Chinese medicine is how this "science"? So I don't approve of using the word "science" of traditional Chinese medicine to evaluation. Traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine is two system, traditional Chinese medicine and "science" is two system, why should use western medicine, to want to use "science" to evaluate traditional Chinese medicine?

But facing modern scientific powerful words hegemony, the doctor of traditional Chinese medicine's "modern scientific" seems to be passed. A large number of old in traditional Chinese medicine, worried about the modern scientific medicine can continue to keep the traditional Chinese medicine? Will continue to keep its features and advantages of traditional Chinese medicine? I put forward in the last century "modernization of traditional Chinese medicine paradox" : traditional Chinese medicine can not achieve change the characteristics of modern science modern scientific? Say simply is not traditional Chinese medicine modern science, can do it keeps the characteristics and in conformity with modern scientific standard? Traditional Chinese medicine "modern", must to forsake or change their own characteristics for the premise; But don't "modernization" into the modern science and to the tide. Contemporary Chinese medicine so in a dilemma, face a life and death decision. Traditional Chinese medicine in imperceptible in into the "modern scientific-the western medicine-- destroy the" dangerous situation.

The "paradox" once put forward that attracted attention and controversial. I want that, I never against the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine, but the opposition in the "modernization" get under the banner of "scientific", "western medicine change"; I never against using scientific methods to study Chinese, but against using "scientific" to transform traditional Chinese medicine. I always think of the traditional Chinese medicine scientific research is very necessary, but is not the goal to improve the traditional Chinese medicine, especially in the modern science can't explain, don't jump to conclusions.

"Science" is not the criterion for testing truth, curative effect is testing medical standards. Isn't "scientific" have what relation? Any curative effect is the most important. "GuoYi master" LiuGuangShen DuoCi called on: now all we want to do is not a debate over whether traditional Chinese medicine "science", but will return to the purpose of the medicine. Medical, regardless of traditional Chinese medicine, western medicine or are based on the health of the human life for the purpose, and the medical of this goal is far from true, it is need long-term efforts, constantly search. It doesn't matter if a cat, catch mice are good cat. In the search process, can be used in a variety of different ways, can use the physical, chemical method, also can use the Yin and Yang of the five elements method, can use the "scientific" method, also can use "the scientific" method. Of course, the most ideal DuoZhong method is combined, so as to realize the unification of the humanities and science, the unity of the micro and macro, analysis and integral unity of speculative reduction, forming a fusion of Chinese and western medicine various medical director of the new medical forms.

Looking to the future of the traditional Chinese medicine: the road of development

The doctor of traditional Chinese medicine's top priority is to not try to confirmed whether his "science", and not to look for your own method with un-broken whole material foundation, but to focus on, conscientious to study their advantage in where? Disadvantages in where?

For the development of traditional Chinese medicine, my basic idea is: stick to the main body, carry forward the advantage, introject the new knowledge, development innovation.

In fact, Chinese medicine should be in accordance with the law of traditional Chinese medicine also can only go to development. The doctor of traditional Chinese medicine's main body, the body can't lose is the doctor of traditional Chinese medicine's mode of thinking, the value. Traditional Chinese medicine to the development, must to establish their own subject position. Traditional Chinese medicine itself had a theory system and the law of development of traditional Chinese medicine, for their survival, unnecessary for basis with another set of discourse system to prove his legitimacy.

Taiji PIC Yin and Yang symbols, with white said Yang, with black said Yin

We must make clear the doctor of traditional Chinese medicine's subject localization. Traditional Chinese medicine is based on humanistic and life of the medicine. The so-called humanities, is based on the traditional Chinese medicine with strong said not only human care, the humanistic spirit and humanistic character, but also have rich humanistic connotation of traditional Chinese medicine, with five lines of Yin and Yang culture model constructed his own medical system. Human care, the humanistic spirit and humanistic character this is regardless of traditional Chinese medicine still is western medicine should have had, but the Yin and Yang of the five elements humanities connotation is unique to the traditional Chinese medicine. In contemporary famous zh medical academician once said: "Chinese medicine is based on the life of medicine, western medicine is based on disease medical". I quite agree with this view. Traditional Chinese medicine concern whole life rather than specific material structure. Traditional Chinese medicine will people as unity, the body in harmony with the whole, with overall dynamic thinking the change of life, people look at the health of the whole of life is harmonious, the disease is the total of the unbalance of life; Western medicine is more concerned with disease, reduction of the disease at analysis thinking change, with physical and chemical theory to explain the etiology and pathology, a disease. TCM and western medicine each have their respective advantages and disadvantages, solved the problem of different aspects of life. They are "and different", if ignored the difference, the Chinese medicine simply reduction for material structure, and even to transform into traditional Chinese medicine with reduction for basic methods of analysis of natural science, traditional Chinese medicine is a traditional Chinese medicine.

As the matter is concerned, the doctor of traditional Chinese medicine's top priority is to not try to confirmed whether his "science", and not to look for your own method with un-broken whole material foundation, but to focus on, conscientious to study their edge is, where is the disadvantages, is to make clinical evaluation standard, the curative effect of traditional Chinese medicine treatment of statistics, evaluation, and find out the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine curative effect what disease is planted more than western medicine? And then go to develop the advantage. 10 million don't everywhere with western medicine, couldn't be more DuanChang against BaoDaTianXia, lying to ourselves. On this basis, to absorb the modern scientific achievements and method, develops the innovation unceasingly.

Traditional Chinese medicine in the Chinese culture inheritance and the Renaissance plays an important role in Chinese medicine, the revival of the Chinese culture is an important symbol of the great rejuvenation. The Chinese culture of the Chinese nation is a perennial thousands of years, it is an inexhaustible motive force in traditional Chinese medicine, the protection of divine providence, for thousands of years the Chinese nation life to multiply, the body to fit. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) system integration all the humanities, the scientific achievements, a completely retained the Chinese traditional culture, the theoretical principles and methods in today's social life still plays a very important role and value. Today, the Chinese national strength increase, people's living standards improve, there have been enough confidence to face their own historical culture. Naturally, we also should have enough courage to face the reality of traditional Chinese medicine, the problems of traditional Chinese medicine to face today dilemma-as to rational attitude to inheritance and development of traditional Chinese medicine.

Traditional Chinese medicine for human provides another scientific paradigm. Traditional Chinese medicine is not the sort of based on structure theory, restoration, and on the basis of scientific theory, but a based on ontology, the theory of the whole and model based on the theory of science. Traditional Chinese medicine will cure and put to people organically, DE art, reflected the equal tool rationality and value rational clever union, in the west of the rational tool outside for human science, provides a with Oriental features of scientific paradigm, The different from the western scientific "gas-Yin and Yang-five line" thinking and theoretical tool for the diversity of science to provide a distinct footnote. Traditional Chinese medicine for people's way of thinking offers another an inexhaustible source of human science, rich treasure house.

Traditional Chinese medicine is China's original medical, is the most likely to drive China science and technology innovation and ahead of the world, the leading cause of mankind health direction medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine in the development of the cause of human health plays an irreplaceable role. Traditional Chinese medicine to be able to develop continues today, it is a grasp of external environment and closely, the law from physical, psychological, social and environment factors of the whole, comprehensive, to grasp the person and nature of contact, reveal the life value and significance, and protect life, to maintain health, prevention and cure of diseases, improving quality of life. Traditional Chinese medicine people-oriented, respect life, to respect and protect, good for first, healing and at the same time as a living individual will view, pay attention to in the course of human factors influence. Traditional Chinese medicine with no damage to the human body, looking, smell, ask, cut the four diagnostic, fully respect people; Acupuncture and massage, etc. Various kinds of treatment to people with damage and stimulate the minimum as the basic principle, Chinese medicine cure for the use of medications from natural medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine has Jane, then, check, the characteristics of the cream. The development of Chinese medicine is to solve the health service development dilemma, everyone will have access to basic medical service of the inevitable choice.

The world of the future should be a diversity of the world. Culture is the DuoYuan, science should be also DuoYuan.
