The Relationship between Chinese Classical Philosophy and the Chinese Medical Science |
The underlying fundamental ideological thesis of Chinese classical philosophy is a system of philosophical theoretical thinking having a scheme of four dimensions, which are "the way of heaven", "the way of earth", "the human way" and "the change of seasons". In other words, Chinese classical philosophy considers the principles governing the changes in the universe and the heavenly bodies, the rules that underlie geophysics and the evolution of creatures: animals and plants, and the laws governing the changes in human societies to be one organic totality with its components mutually influencing and constraining each other, with revelations of changes in matters and things that go on with the passage of time as the basis for investigations. Therefore, Chinese classical philosophy is a mode of thinking by "synthetic analysis". In classical Chinese philosophy, the scientific proposition of "interactions between man and nature" was put forward on the foundation of this basic ideology.
To be put in a nutshell, if you want to know the Chinese cultural history and get an idea of its erudition and profundity, you must know the law of conservation of "yin" and "yang" and the theory of "interaction between man and nature" of the Chinese classical philosophy.
In contrast, all Western philosophies are dualistic with man opposed to heaven, earth and nature. In thinking about and analyzing problems they take for the starting point man’s the biggest dividing line in logical thinking between traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine consists in epistemology. Traditional Chinese medicine looks upon the whole universe as one organism; and since the universe is an organism, all things in it are related to each other without exception by being interdependent, mutually restraining, balanced and in harmony. Owing to the fact that man is also looked upon as a "universe", though on a small scale, the view is entertained that between the internal organs of the human body there also exist the requirement for equilibrium between yin and yang and the phenomenon of mutual reinforcement and mutual neutralization.
Traditional Chinese medicine, having gone through a process of development of thousands of years, has succeeded in sublimating from an empirical type of medicine to a systematic one with its unique and peculiar theory and its complete and comprehensive methodology. It is the embodiment of the typical Eastern mode of thinking. However, there are certain limitations to this methodology, because the processes of abstract thinking and logical reasoning are comparatively too great in number, resulting in a lack of concreteness and definiteness. Similarly, Western medicine also suffers obvious limitations because its basic theory is not closely related to philosophy. It adopts a certain purely biological point of view and, therefore, does not pay enough attention to how natural environment and psychological factors influence the illness and health of mankind. Physicians, no matter whether they are traditional Chinese medical practitioners or doctors of western medicine, may belong to somewhat different times, have dissimilar cultural backgrounds, and are used to thinking somehow in not the same way.
This fact is reflected in their methods of treating patients. Their diagnostic methods may be somewhat different; there may be dissimilarities in their cognition and methods of treating patients, and even their prescriptions may differ from each other. What is the same of them is their aim, their sole aim, which is to cure patients" diseases and alleviate their suffer.
