In ancient times, most people who studied traditional Chinese medicine were scholars from reading, and scholars loved to show off their words. The question itself is very simple. It seems that they can't prove their proficiency without mystery. Just like some modern poems, it is just a feeling to read, but it is difficult to understand the meaning.
In fact, Chinese medicine comes from folk medical practice and is transformed into Chinese medicine theory under the summary and promotion of literati, thus guiding clinical practice. A simple and simple thing from the people comes from what our ancestors have repeatedly summed up. Why are we afraid of learning and afraid to learn? Why do you refuse? Learning Chinese medicine is actually very simple.
Everyone has a different understanding of learning Chinese medicine, just like practicing martial arts, and some of them are just to keep fit; Some are for the glory of ancestors; Some people want to be a grandmaster; be ...
Different ideas have different starting points. So is learning Chinese medicine!
Some children's mothers want to learn Chinese medicine just to make their children healthier and stay away from diseases.
Some patients who have been entangled in diseases for a long time want to be healthy and live a healthy life every day by studying Chinese medicine.
Some Chinese medicine practitioners who are engaged in clinical practice study and study Chinese medicine in order to better serve patients and improve the level of treatment.
People who engage in scientific research learn Chinese medicine in order to find new ways to overcome intractable diseases.
Others study Chinese medicine in order to learn a skill, make a living and support their families. ...
Not all students of Chinese medicine require understanding, which is wrong. Traditional Chinese medicine is the way to preserve one's health and teaches people how to prevent and treat diseases. But if you take Chinese medicine as your profession, the requirements will be higher and you should know more. This is understandable, because people's lives depend on it. If you don't improve your level, you're not saving people, but killing people.
In the ancient flood times, human beings had no clothes and no stable food. In order to survive, people have to adapt to nature and find their own way of life in the changes of nature. They are not talking about health and longevity, but just for survival. They are simple-minded and do not pursue fame and fortune. They just consider how to adapt to the cold and avoid the wind and rain. Everyone is a medical worker, otherwise they can't survive. With the progress of human society, human beings have too many ways to adapt to the changes in nature, but because of this, they ignore the changes in nature, and their ability to adapt to nature is declining. A slight change in nature will cause many people to get sick. The purpose of studying Chinese medicine is to let us know our nature, our body, change some bad living habits, integrate into nature, seek a healthy way of life and seek a cure for diseases.
You can learn Chinese medicine and feel it. Because learning Chinese medicine is to feel the world around you, and learning Chinese medicine is to look at your body.
Feel the world from the primitive, from the essence, this is what we want to learn! Not what kind of person, but the whole human race!
Chapter 2: Feeling Chinese Medicine from Life
Is Chinese medicine metaphysics? Does Chinese medicine have any curative effect? Should Chinese medicine be popularized?
Only by practicing these problems ourselves can we have a profound understanding, know how to treat Chinese medicine and establish confidence in learning Chinese medicine.
I wrote in the first chapter of Neijing Ancient Naivety: "Under the guidance of ancient sages, husbands are evil thieves, sometimes avoiding them, indifferent to nothingness, obeying the true qi, keeping the spirit inside and being sick outside."
"Virtual evil thief wind, avoid it sometimes". If it gets cold, we all know that adding clothes is an instinctive reaction. This is also the most basic concept in health preservation, and it is also the most essential and simple concept. Is it mysterious? It's not mysterious at all.
But if we think deeply, we can dress up our bodies to avoid the wind of thieves. Isn't taking righting medicine just to dress up our five internal organs? We protect ourselves from thieves by adding clothes! If we stay away from cold food, isn't it to let our five internal organs avoid cold evil? It is a very common truth, which comes from the simplest, most essential and simplest things in life. But it is the application of these principles that can protect our bodies and make us live a healthy life. This is Chinese medicine, and this is the way of medicine.
The first chapter of the theory of ancient naivety in Neijing wrote: "Therefore, food is beautiful, let it serve, enjoy its vulgarity, strive for its benefits, and its people are simple."
How many of us modern people can do such a simple regimen? If our impetuous heart calms down, we will look down on things, reduce our pursuit of material things and pay less attention to fame and fortune, and naturally enjoy our customs. Who cares about eating abalone or ribs, wearing mink or cotton-padded clothes? Because as long as you can keep warm, you can play the role of avoiding thieves, and when your mood reaches a certain height, you can achieve harmony between man and nature.
These words in Neijing are very simple, just like a 70-year-old man telling us the experience of a person who has experienced it. When we listen with an open mind, we will feel how superficial our understanding of life is and how impetuous our mentality is. We will find that we often give up everything, and when the disease comes and life ends, we hope to get rid of it immediately! I hope I can come back to life immediately! Why don't we learn the regimen of Chinese medicine earlier, so that our hearts can be peaceful and our bodies can be healthy, and we should not be so extreme about the surrounding environment!
To borrow the original words of Neijing, "lust can't satisfy people's eyes, lewdness can't confuse people's hearts, and fools and wise men are not afraid of things, so they are in harmony with Tao." Therefore, people who can live to 100 years old and keep exercising are not dangerous because of morality. "This is a medical way!
Does Chinese medicine have any curative effect?
First of all, I want to ask, have people who have doubts about the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine tried it? Have you adopted the thinking of traditional Chinese medicine and dialectically applied the treatment methods of traditional Chinese medicine?
For example, the summer before last, a patient came to me and asked for an infusion bag or bottle. I asked why. The patient said that he had a bad cold, and the infusion bag was cured quickly! I said, you think a few days will be soon. The patient smiled. Every time he caught a cold, he recovered in three days. "Can I cure you in one day?" "That's fast, of course. Is Chinese medicine ok? " "Of course!"
Because the patient sleeps at night, the air conditioning temperature is too low, which is caused by a cold. So I scraped the patient's back with ginger oil and scraped purple and black spots along the bladder meridian. In less than ten minutes, the patient felt that his condition had been relieved by more than half, and then I prescribed a pair of ephedra, aconite and asarum soup, the so-called bad cold, which was cured in less than one day that night. For the next year or two, the patient had to take soup medicine every time he caught a cold, and one dose was enough. For a slight cold, if he cooks some onions and Jiang Shui himself, he will be fine. The concept of "cold must be infused with infusion bottles" established in patients' minds has completely disappeared, and it has been replaced by knowing how to prevent colds and how to recuperate in the early stage of colds.
This is the charm of Chinese medicine, the curative effect of Chinese medicine!
Only after personal experience can I know that the original disease can be treated in this way, the effect of Chinese medicine can be so good, and the speed of Chinese medicine treatment is not slow!
When I was a child in the countryside, medical care was not as convenient as it is now. My grandfather treated many diseases in this way, and I am used to this treatment. I am also used to the old people at home giving me onion and ginger tea to drink after catching a cold. It's been twenty or thirty years since I can remember, and I haven't had an infusion bag or bottle. Whenever I feel slightly uncomfortable, I can adjust quickly by taking some very simple measures. This is my personal experience. Because of these personal experiences, I firmly believe that the curative effect of Chinese medicine is not slow at all, and it is no worse than that of western medicine. This is also a Chinese medicine worker's confidence in his work, in himself, in Chinese medicine and in Huangdi Neijing.
If a knowledge is closely related to our life and is our health guide, how should we treat it and whether we should give it up? Is it snowing? Shouldn't we put on more clothes? Should we envy the strong? We should be mercenary?
Don't! The beginning of life is naturally beautiful! Everyone in me has a kind heart, and our body itself has a set of precise adjustment mechanisms. What we need is health preservation, and we need to learn to keep this precise and perfect body so that it will not be hurt by external evils and internal injuries. This is nip in the bud, this is nip in the bud. This is the characteristic and advantage of Chinese medicine. It is natural for us to promote Chinese medicine. It is the responsibility of everyone in China to carry forward this science which integrates prevention, treatment, health preservation and health care, and let it shine forever for the health of all mankind.
