Standard Is An Issue 

 

 

I have written more than 500 articles for our TCM 

(Traditional Chinese Medicine ), which are enough 

to prove that the treatments of diseases by our 

TCM are scientific and effective .

 

And now , our TVs are also constantly introducing a

large number of examples of effective treatments of

diseases by our TCM .

 

However , why do some pseudo scholars always firmly 

deny that our TCM can effectively treat many diseases ? 

And they are always so eloquent when they quibble !

 

After more than ten years of observation and analysis , 

I found that there are three major issues that need to 

be solved urgently .

 

These issues include Standard Issues , Platform 

Issues and Vision Issues .

So , in this article , I will talk about the Standard Issues .

Our TCM has always been being an effective way for 

us to keep fit and cure diseases .

 

Although there are some problems in our TCM indeed , 

TCM can solve all of the problems by itself , and TCM 

can also be further improved by learning knowledge 

from other disciplines .

 

Unfortunately , more than a hundred years ago , when 

we were both poor and weak , western medicine also 

took advantage of that situation and then became 

the only standard of our medicine in the end .

 

Objectively speaking , western medicine has indeed

achieved a great leap forward for our medical 

progress , but we should not say that our TCM  is 

useless just because of it .

And this is just something like that :

We learned to drive , but there is no reason to despise

walkers , and there is no need to disable  the legs of

ourselves !

 

Therefore , we must adhere to the first law of 

medical science :

We should discuss science according to facts , 

and meanwhile , we should discuss medical 

science according to curative effects . 

Each of us knows that Li Bai is a poet .

 

However , if someone determines that :

 

A poet who cannot speak English is not a 

qualified poet .

 

Then , under such the standard , even Li Bai's status 

as a poet is not guaranteed .

 

Actually , our TCM has been suffering from such the

standard , a rather baffling standard , for more than 

a hundred years :

 

TCM is not medical science because western 

medicine cannot explain it .

 

The basic cause of this kind of paradox is the 

dislocation of standards , and then the 

dislocation of value judgment results from 

such  the dislocation of standards .

In fact , western medicine has its own criteria , while 

our TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine ) has its own 

criteria as well and the only common criteria for 

them are :

efficacy !.  

Otherwise , there will be endless mutual entanglement 

and disputations , which  always leave many patients 

at a loss !

Now , let's take an analogy :
