(2022-12-30 08:57:46)Gap Between Knowledge
Systems
In my
last blog
titled
" Origins Of
Knowledge",
I
want to
regard it as a kind of gift to my readers
to
intriduce
a special
case.
In
this case, a
p atient with
renal failure
has
got
effective treatment
with TCM (Tranditional Chinese
Medicine)
, and on November 23,
2019, a TV
station
broadcast
a program called
" Chinese
Medicine
with
Miraculous Methods
and Chinese
Herbs
with Soulful
Feelings."
In this
program, the case was intriduced in detail.
There are
many facts of curing many
critically ills
with TCM, and
i n the faces of the these
facts, some
pseudo
scholars have tried
to explain the facts
in
their own
professional terms ,
but perhaps in
the
end,
they failed for they got nothing in such way .
So,
these pseudo scholars simply turned
against
our TCM
by saying "Traditional Chinese
Medicine
is
unscientific" .
In fact,
it is
something like
fool's counting
beans
and
nothing to learn about.
So,
it's clear
that some pseudo scholars are
not
as
the same level
as our TCM
by comparing
the
therapeutic effects between
TCM and Western
Medicine
on many critically
ills,
And It's
clear either that our TCM
is obviously
superior
to
western medicine by a nalysing
these
therapeutic
effective
cases for there is
a knowledge gap evidently.
Unfortunately, not everyone can cross such a
knowledge
gap.
For
example, a teacher
in primary
school surely
understands that it's
difficult for a kid
who has
just learnt
addition to learn multiplication
at once .
So
perhaps for a long time, the kid
always uses the
method of accumulation
to calculate multiplication,
that
's to add
with the same
number repeatly.
Such an
algorithm may be effective for simple
multiplication, but
it is no effective for complex
one.
In the
same way, t he knowledge of western
medicine
is still
being at the level of addition,
but our
TCM
has
already reached a higher level long before.
Therefore, western medical
doctors always solve
health
problems using the way of
repeat-adding,
and certainly it
can solve some trivial or simple health
problems,
but perhaps it's little effective to deal with
critically
ills.
Of
course, they have enough theories to explain
these
doubts,
and there may be an unsatisfactory medical
consequences
there.
Fortunately, our
TCM has never been tired of
such
a low-level way of
thinking. and TCM can deal with
many
critically ills according to
the symptoms of these
ills.
In
fact, this way to cure ills is much wiser than
that of
western
medicine.
Perhaps
someone can't understand it for ever, he always
plays
tricks highly in the micro world, he can't solve
the
problem,
but he possesses too many reasons for explain.
From the
perspective of the treatment process of many
critically diseases, TCM can
treat the diseases reasonably
by
the syndrome differentiation,
and it is not
necessary
to seek
any explanation from western medicine
theory,
nor to
see whether the western medical doctors
smile,
but we
should take
their dignity into
account now and then.
