The correct concept is the forerunner of health and longevity. Health and longevity are in our own hands. With a correct concept of life, there will be correct behavior and hope for a long and healthy life. But the correct concept of life comes from the correct culture, the correct culture and the natural and objective facts of life. What is Chinese medicine? First of all, we should start with the actual object of medicine-people.
To be sure, people are not mice, corpses, experimental specimens separated from people, and products produced by factories. People are living, natural and complete people, which is a natural and objective fact of life To deny man is medicine, not human medicine.
Natural and objective life has been 3.6 billion years. Bacteria are ancestors and viruses are ghosts. There are 3 million people alive, people between heaven and earth, people who eat and drink, and people who are sleepy. Living people, life is dynamic, and changes are coordinated, not just with the sky. It should also be underground and among social personnel; There are both eternal laws formed in response to the movement of the sun and moon in the universe and randomness in response to changes in temperature in spring, summer, autumn and winter. To know Chinese medicine and find real Chinese medicine, we must first have such common sense of life.
Culture has two different routes, one is the material route, pursuing material interests, and the other is the life route, pursuing the sum of existence. Medicine, with science as the cultural background, takes the materialized route, brings the human form into the laboratory, decomposes it with a scalpel and analyzes it with a microscope. Natural and objective living people no longer exist, but are decomposed into cells, molecules and ions. However, in medical culture, many people prefer to regard themselves as cells, molecules and machine parts, and agree with cadaveric medicine and morphological analysis.
Any life form exists in the form of an individual, and each individual has the characteristics of life and his own personality. The living get sick because people have life, because people's life reacts to nature, society and their own five zang qi and blood, and because of the uncertainty of the multidimensional relationship between heaven, earth and personnel. The uncertainty of multidimensional connection affects the internal qi and blood of life. Without the secret of Yin and Pingyang, there is no harmony between qi and blood, and there is no harmony between camp and health, diseases will occur.
The occurrence of diseases is an abnormality of life, including morphological abnormalities, but often the morphological abnormalities are lagging behind, and most of them are prophets of God. Qi must react first, and then there will be physical changes. The definition of disease in traditional Chinese medicine is "human suffering", that is, a living person feels pain and discomfort. Even if he is sick, he does not have to wait until he is deformed to get sick. Therefore, the so-called sub-health in western medicine is a disease in Chinese medicine, and it is a disease in which life is known to God and qi is corresponding. Treating sub-health as "no disease" means not knowing Chinese medicine.
Chinese medicine stresses yin and yang. What is Yin and Yang? Western medicine asked to take it out. Yin and Yang, like life, exist naturally and cannot be proved. Western medicine is very clever. It materializes life and explains life activities with physical physiology and pathology such as cells. In this way, life becomes something that can be displayed. The question is, is what is taken out of the experiment life?
Every kind of life does not exist in isolation, but has external multidimensional connections, such as heaven, earth, sun and moon, such as spring, summer, autumn and winter, such as personnel exchanges, such as leisure and enjoyment, which all affect life; There are internal multidimensional connections, such as the five internal organs, the rise and fall of qi, the difference of diet and the movement of breathing and sleeping, which are all closely related. Moreover, the multidimensional connection of living people has sexual laws and personality characteristics.
It won't always be smooth sailing, and not all things are peaceful. This thing cannot be unified, and there is no way to decompose and analyze it. Men and women, old and young, born and sick, living environment, lifestyle, personality cultivation and cultural concepts are very different. What's more, human life is not an isolated life, it is inextricably linked with the living environment. The external environment affects people, which is random, three-dimensional, harmful, beneficial, internal, external, material, emotional, dynamic and difficult to unify. Only by respecting this fact of life can we develop human medicine, and human medicine and medical culture have humanistic spirit.
If we don't start from the objective life of a living person, there is no respect for nature, respect for people's attitude, science is supreme, and experiments are unique. Not only do you not understand Chinese medicine, but you also dislike that Chinese medicine is unscientific and pseudoscience. If humanistic culture pursues the sum of the living relationship between man and nature, then humanistic medicine pursues the sum of living human life, treating man as a person with natural integrity and human life as a multi-dimensional life, and never needs subjective definition, unity and objectivity.
What is natural integrity? From the time point of view, human life germinated 3.6 billion years ago, coping with the four seasons of cold and heat, changing day and night, coming from apes, and experiencing the baptism of wind and rain, hunger and cold for 2 million years; In space, it evolved under the rules of the operation of the universe, lived under the influence of social personnel, bathed in cold, hot and humid climate changes, and felt the humanistic atmosphere of joys and sorrows; Morphologically, any zang-fu organs, organs and cell tissues are not isolated, but change in harmony with each other. The natural integrity of this multidimensional connection is the basis for the survival of the living and the occurrence, development and change of diseases.
What is multidimensional connection? Human life is not an isolated life, which is related to astronomy, geography and personnel, and cannot exist without heaven and earth; The five internal organs influence and regulate each other, the cells correspond to each other, and the viscera correspond to each other. Separated, the living don't exist.
Natural integrity and multidimensional connection are the objective basis for understanding humanistic spirit, China traditional culture and humanistic medicine. Human nature is the essence of goodness, which is reflected in the fact that culture is human nature, and human nature is the abbreviation of humanistic spirit, and it is the cultural achievement of good human nature, not the synonym of culture. A culture does not necessarily have humanistic spirit, such as science and technology culture and business culture. It advocates competition, is based on material interests, and is bustling. This is a tool of crazy struggle. Medicine formed on the basis of humanity is humanity medicine, and humanity is the cultural condition of humanity medicine. Humanities and humanities medicine are based on living people and natural life. Culture without the natural integrity and multidimensional connection of living people is not humanities, and medicine without the natural integrity and multidimensional connection of living people is not humanistic medicine. Respect for human natural integrity is the basic requirement of humanistic medicine.

The living are dynamic people, living in a relatively stable and balanced dynamic environment. The living environment of human beings is a dynamic and balanced environment, with the connection between heaven and earth, the sun and the moon, the biological connection, the alternation of cold and heat, the social form and the cultural influence. All these factors are concentrated on the living, and a life node with "Qi" as the connection and "Harmony" as the best state is reached.
? Be most sincere, be upright and clear-minded, love everything, love everything, and gasify everything. )
The evolution of the brain has enabled people to develop a variety of cultures and skills, and has great ability to interfere with nature and influence the living environment. If this ability respects the objectivity of human life, respects the living environment of human beings, conforms to nature, and maintains the sum of life, human beings will be "integrated with God to heaven" and "rise and fall at the door of growth" and "endless" like Huangdi Neijing said. And those of us who have technology, culture and business culture dominate the earth, taking "I" as the center and above nature. Our lust for material pleasures is reflected in the fact that we don't respect the living and nature in medicine, and treat people as physical substances that can be decomposed and analyzed. The natural integrity of human beings has disappeared, and the multi-dimensional connection does not exist.
It is the unshirkable responsibility of all cultures to serve the health, longevity and sustainable development of the living. People-oriented nature should be based on the sun, moon, universe, mountains, rivers and social environment, that is, anyone who regards people as natural and objective life can't erase the objective facts of life that correspond to each other, constantly coordinate, adapt to the environment and safeguard their own existence.
"Harmony of form and spirit, the end of the day", "the door of the ups and downs of all things" and "endless" are the purpose of culture and the basic direction of culture. It will be harmful if the purpose of culture only cares about material progress and luxurious life enjoyment, but ignores the natural living environment and social living conditions. Harmful culture is a kind of morbid culture, which is harmful to life, destroys the living environment and worsens living conditions. Under the influence of morbid culture, today's people are born sick, the earth is sick, and the sick world leads to the loss of human health. In the environment of carbon emission and pollution, life nodes have lost the natural attribute of "harmony"-disharmony between the five internal organs, qi and blood, and yin and yang, and more and more diseases are becoming more and more difficult to treat.
Multidimensional space-time humanistic medicine takes nature as the objective, living people as the basis, health, longevity and sustainable development as the standard, understands the human nature characteristics of medicine on the objective basis of thinking about the primitive behavior of life and the germination and development of culture, and analyzes the human nature essence of medicine in medical clinical behavior; A living person based on the natural integrity, to understand the qi, spirit, yin and yang of traditional Chinese medicine, to tell everyone the basic concepts, logical thinking and clinical model of traditional Chinese medicine; Tell you about my study and practice in Chinese medicine, and the relationship between human nature, social relations and diseases, so that you can understand the life law of Chinese medicine theory.
From "knocking down Kongjiadian" more than 100 years ago, Chinese medicine has become the mainstream of Chinese medicine today, actively alienating, rebuilding and innovating Chinese medicine, clinical syndrome differentiation and treatment disappearing, and the essence of Chinese medicine theory at the cultural level has been denied, forming a situation in which Chinese medicine is more prosperous and declining. Knowledge is limited, and understanding is not necessarily correct. However, with the prevalence of westernized Chinese medicine and the unification of Chinese medicine theory in pathological form, this understanding may be beneficial to the self-reliance and self-confidence of Chinese medicine culture.

Today, people are used to using western culture to evaluate China's traditional culture and analyze TCM theory. The west has materialized into an absolute truth, and science and technology culture is God, with absolute authority. Both eastern and western cultures, Chinese medicine and western medicine are spiritual products of human beings. Culture itself cannot be used as the standard of cultural judgment, that is, one spiritual product cannot be used to measure another spiritual product, otherwise it will hinder human intellectuality from moving towards the truth of life. The combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine is the combination of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine technology, so traditional Chinese medicine has no essence and is a mystery of words. We should use morphological theory to understand its essence. Different cultures have different essence, and different theories have different concepts. Using one cultural theory to establish the essence or connotation of another cultural theory is actually a cultural absurdity and a logical absurdity.
Is there a uniform standard to test culture? Yes, humanistic spirit. Humanistic spirit is the spirit of human culture, not in the self-promotion of culture, but in the life of a living person. Any culture that is conducive to "harmony between form and spirit" and "endless" is a culture with humanistic spirit. At the time of the sixth mass extinction (the era of mass extinction), it is of great significance to measure culture and judge its theoretical value with such standards. However, there is no humanistic spirit and sustainable development in today's debate on the retention or abolition of traditional Chinese medicine, only the denial of traditional Chinese medicine culture by science and technology culture; Today's combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine does not take the living as the actual object, and does not respect the natural integrity and multidimensional connection of human beings. But in microscope logic (relying on instruments, having experimental norms, intuitive and clear, logic that can be seen and touched, and can be expressed by numbers, which is called microscope logic, and the latter is the same), physical substances are objective, and Chinese medicine uses subjective and objective methods to judge.
People are natural and live in nature. Without the humanistic guarantee of people-oriented and the humanistic spirit of respecting nature, culture may create humanitarian disasters, endanger health and lead to "extinction before extinction" of mankind. As "The Age of Extinction" said: "Humans have the ability to express the world with images and symbols, and also have the ability to change the world. Coincidentally, this is precisely the ability to destroy the world. "
The loss of humanistic spirit is the root of human immortality. "A Brief History of Mankind": "Although human beings have many amazing abilities now, we are still at a loss about our goals and still seem to be always dissatisfied. Our transportation has changed from canoe to sailboat, steamboat, plane and space shuttle, but we still don't know where to go. We have more power than ever before, but we hardly know how to use it. To make matters worse, human beings seem to be more irresponsible than ever. We regard ourselves as gods, leaving only the laws of physics, and we are not responsible to anyone. Because of this, we set off a disaster to the animals and ecosystems around us, just to seek our own comfort and entertainment, but we can never get real satisfaction. He has the power of God, but he is irresponsible, insatiable and doesn't even know what he wants. The world is sinister, I am afraid that's all. "

The core idea of humanistic spirit is "harmony". The relationship between human's natural existence and human's social existence and the relationship between human's five potential lives can lead to human's sustainable development. But technology has become an almighty god! When I entered the intensive care unit, I saw the cut trachea, the tubes inserted all over my body, and the pipes leading from the patient to various scientific instruments. Scientific instruments and drugs dominate life and death. Without relatives and friends, warm feelings, spiritual encouragement and will support, people become a pile of meat influenced by medical technology. Materials science and technology are progressing, but humanities are degenerating, and medicine has become inhuman medicine.
Not only the medical humanities have fallen, but also the world culture has fallen. In society, the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in 1986, the collapse of the World Trade Center in1September, and the periodic economic crisis; In nature, the update speed of antibiotics can't keep up with the evolution speed of bacterial drug resistance, the stability of micro-ecosystem is getting worse and worse, and bacteria feed on antibiotics ... These troubles can be found in material and cultural reasons, which makes us see the sadness of human nature.
The development of science, technology and culture is amazing. In just 200 years, human beings have been sent into space, realizing the dream of flying that the Chinese nation has not realized for thousands of years. The ancestors of the Chinese nation, observing astronomy and understanding geography, abstracted the basic laws of all natural things, including people themselves. Laozi, Confucius and other pioneers of human nature purification all know that not all people are friendly, charitable and kind, nor do they all know the way of life. Many people don't know their place in natural time and space. The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were torn apart, and countless lives fell under the weapons of wild struggle. In the face of bloody reality, the human nature of the ancestors of the Chinese nation has awakened, forming a promising Chinese culture represented by Tao Te Ching and The Analects of Confucius, which aims at the evolution of human spirit and seeks "eternity" in inaction. Under the leadership of such a culture, technological progress is not important, material wealth is not important, what matters is the spiritual evolution of human beings. With the spirit of good human nature, human beings can have harmonious interpersonal relations and harmonious natural relations, and can "last forever." Without a good humanistic spirit, the human world is a world of the jungle, and science and technology and culture will become an accomplice in the wild struggle, and whoever is strong will dominate.
The Chinese nation invented gunpowder without studying the physical and chemical principles of gunpowder, and its practical technology was greatly limited. As Mr. Lu Xun said, it is used to make firecrackers and add some festive atmosphere to personnel activities. Westerners rely on laboratories to study the explosion principle of gunpowder, and thermal weapons develop rapidly. Since then, the battle of human wildness has risen from cold weapons to hot weapons, and nuclear weapons and biochemical weapons have been developed. People have the ability to destroy Conan, the humanitarian disaster is getting deeper and deeper, and the problem of survival is getting bigger and bigger.
Brilliant achievements constantly inspire people's enthusiasm for developing science and technology culture. I don't know how many awards there are in this world, which has led the wild struggle of mankind, competing for territory, resources and markets. The living environment is deteriorating and the prospects for survival are dim. Primitive people without culture, breathing natural air and drinking natural water, have no pesticides and fertilizers in their food, have a simple and self-sufficient material life, and have no worries about sustainable development. Under the action of crazy fighting, running all the way has made material progress and doubled wealth. Milk and health products are everywhere, just like mobile phones and computers, but the health problems are getting deeper and deeper, so that health books and health TVs have become the most sought-after cultural products.
The evolution of human form has been completed, but the spiritual evolution of human god has not really begun. Morphological evolution is natural, and human spiritual evolution is helpless, and it can only rely on people's own subjective initiative. However, in the cultural environment based on material wealth, human beings have always maintained a wild soul like animals, and the wildness has been expanding. Now it is above nature, forming a rational concept of anthropocentrism. Human nature has not progressed, but has regressed. Nan huaijin thinks, "As far as oriental culture and humanistic culture are concerned, if we compare ancient and modern books with everyone's works and thoughts, we will feel that human nature is degenerating and corrupting. Therefore, we China people often praise how ancient the ancient times are, because the more people go down, the more corrupt they are, and instead of making progress, history has degenerated. But as far as material civilization is concerned, the times are indeed progressing, so it is difficult to say whether the history of the times is progressing or retrogressing. "
I used to read books under kerosene lamps, and there were few dolls wearing glasses at school. Nowadays, under the brightly lit electric lights, glasses abound; A few decades ago, porridge could support babies without breast milk. Nowadays, children eat diversified foods with rich nutrition, and malnutrition is a problem that needs social attention. Due to the lack of human nature, people are not happier and healthier, but stand on the opposite side of nature, destroying the natural environment and hurting people's coping coordination. Nowadays, people have lost the ability to prevent diseases, such as bird flu, Zika virus and super drug-resistant tuberculosis, which will make the world panic.
