After so many years of development, does TCM still follow the ancient way of thinking as its guiding principle? Why?

After so many years of development, does TCM still follow the ancient way of thinking as its guiding principle? Why?

From ancient times to the present day people stand and walk, eat, drink, sleep, happiness, anger, sadness and sorrow, greed for money, good color and fear of softness and hardness ,,,, basically nothing has changed, so ,,,,

This is like the engine structure and working principle, people have been analyzed clearly, you say I want to put the piston or piston ring or combustion chamber or injector and the shape and size of the cylinder block size remains unchanged under the circumstances of the change or trade-offs, so that the engine can still work properly? Definitely not. Chinese medicine forefathers have analyzed the human body as an engine can not be clear, the same is true of myology pharmacology, that are thousands of years of practice, so the engine is not a soft culture, on the hardware, on the construction of such a principle, if we have to be different, unless the engine and the human body is not the same as the power source.

Because the way of thinking of the ancients, not out of thin air, was summarized after a number of years of practice, it is still in use in Chinese medicine.

If it's right, why not follow it? It's the truth, that's what you have to stick to!

For example, China knew that infectious diseases had to be quarantined in the days of the Zhouyi, and doesn't it do the same thing today!

There is also from the academician Wang Yongyan according to Chinese medicine's five luck six qi prediction of the current epidemic, which is based on the "theory of luck is the study of the five luck six qi exponential phase of the main time of the law as well as its dominant role in the sky, climate, climate. In turn, it explores the relationship of climate change to human health and the occurrence of diseases. It mainly relies on the symbols of the heavenly stems and earthly branches as deductive tools. Therefore the knowledge of stem and branch becomes an important content of the doctrine of luck." (According to Meteorological Publishing House, The Origin and Application of Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches)

From this passage, it can be seen that the five movements and six qi of Chinese medicine have a predictive function on public health emergencies, and this is based on the influence of nature on human social activities. I agree with those who say that Chinese medicine is based on astronomy, but there is also meteorology and climatology, so it can be said that this is a cross-disciplinary approach.

There are also many herbal medicines that follow ancient recipes that are still effective today, and in the medical profession, this is clinical medicine. In terms of the patient alone, how good it is to have a remedy that is even more ancient!

Chinese medicine is what Du Fu described in his poem, "The river will not be abolished for all time"!

It is important to see the longevity of TCM in medicine, and to see that Li Shaojun and Ge Hong have influenced western chemical medicine.

There is also Chinese medicine thousands of years to the present is justified, to know the world's traditional medicine can become a system to today only Chinese medicine, there are still very many benevolent people in the combination of Chinese and Western medicine, which is good for the health of the world's people!

This is the fundamental reason why Chinese medicine is declining and heading towards natural extinction. As the saying goes, "If you do not advance, you will retreat! Chinese medicine insists on following this path, and there is nothing the gods can do about it.

Chinese medicine is a thing, Chinese medicine is a person, relying on flexible thinking experience judgment according to personal constitution, regional climate change and add or subtract the traditional famous medical prescription, so, Chinese medicine is the key!

Chinese medicine to carry forward the development of Chinese medicine should give up the thinking of the old and famous Chinese medicine alone, the national network of Chinese medicine hospitals, collection of disease diagnosis, treatment prescriptions, efficacy records, the use of big data collation, to remove the false and keep the true, and to promote the new. Standardize what can be standardized, easy to learn and promote, easy to pass on!

The theory of Chinese medicine comes from the ancient people's observation of the laws of nature. As long as there are still the sun, moon and stars, and the cold comes and goes, the way Chinese medicine recognizes the human body and diseases will not change. The theory of Chinese medicine is not science, and the concept of science cannot explain Chinese medicine. Not because he is too backward, but because he is too far ahead. Just as people will always be divided into male and female, nature will always be divided into day and night, and the year will always be divided into four seasons. All that people can change is to make better use of such laws and to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of their utilization.

Because the efficacy of Chinese medicine and the ancient way of thinking is inseparable, replaced by the so-called modern scientific thinking system in the West, Chinese medicine will not have any effect. These are two completely different scientific systems, the core reason is that the thinking system is different!

More than half of Chinese herbal medicine overlaps with Mongolian medicine, Tibetan medicine, Hmong medicine, Wei medicine, Dai medicine, ...... herbal medicine. People also practiced fire cupping, bloodletting, massage and "surgical" techniques to deal with trauma. This shows that the early exploration of human beings to deal with diseases and trauma has commonality. First, it is not advanced, just a primitive expedient and deal with, second, its efficacy is independent of the various explanations for the existence of a separate. For example, Mongolian, Tibetan, and Hmong medicine ...... do not use the yin and yang and five elements doctrine when using these medicines, but use people's folk culture. Each ethnic medicine interpretation of pharmacology is different, but the medicinal effect of the drug is the same.

Chinese medicine was integrated into Confucianism, Taoism, I Ching, Zen ...... after the Song Dynasty, and a large number of doctrinal and cultural medicines appeared, such as "Gao Tang Grass", "Filial Piety Shirt", "Chaste Lady's Clothes", "Child's Urine" and other strange "cultural medicines". "Chastity clothes", "child urine" and other strange "cultural medicine". These medicines were not found in the early Chinese medical books. The Song Dynasty was a divergent development for TCM. Strangely enough, many people have honored these Confucian dregs as TCM thinking, and regarded the early primitive explorations of mankind as something more scientific than what it is now.

The point here is that the exploration of primitive herbal medicine in Chinese medicine has been going on in tandem for a long time by other peoples as well, it's just interpreted differently, so don't think it's a one-trick pony.
