Chinese Medicine and Enlightenment
I don’t know when, and I don’t know which Ya Ting’s said that Chinese medicine is well developed in Japan’s heritage, and also said how good the Japanese traditional Chinese medicine hanbang is, and how big and strong it is.
Nonsense! The actual situation of Chinese medicine in Japan is that the government is strictly controlled, the private sector is left out, and the biggest head of leeks it can harvest is the ignorant visitors from other countries who come to Japan for tourism.
Japan has long been enlightened, the majority of people have long recognized the obscurantist nature of Chinese medicine, as a scientific spirit and responsible to the people of the Japanese government, so treat Chinese medicine is its civilized place.
Japan once worshipped Chinese medicine in the age of obscurity hundreds of years ago, when there was no science, and the old medicine all over the world was nonsense, and among these nonsense, Chinese medicine was the most large-scale and systematic.
However, after the introduction of orchidology (Dutch) in modern Japan, the intellectual elite became enlightened and realized the difference between metaphysics and science, and the status of Chinese medicine and Confucianism fell to the ground.
Modern Japan is a miracle of mankind, and the driving force of the miracle, in addition to MacArthur’s transformation, is scientific advocacy, and the Nobel Prize in Natural Sciences every year for the past 20 years is a manifestation of thick and thin.
And the situation of Chinese medicine in Japan is that the official strict control, folk cold, medicine accounted for 2% of the Chinese side of the rubbish, most of them are also cut somewhere superstitious tourists leeks.
For more than three hundred years, the Enlightenment, which has brought about fundamental changes in all fields of human beings, has included both the natural and humanistic fields. And Chinese medicine, as well as all kinds of traditional pseudo-knowledge from around the world, are the key battlegrounds of the Enlightenment.
What is enlightenment? Enlightenment is also the opening of ignorance. To be ignorant is to be ignorant of the spirit of science and scientific thinking.
Kant defines enlightenment as a state of immaturity, and “immaturity” means that one cannot use one’s own reason without being guided by others.
Led by the spirit of the Enlightenment, from that time onward, Mr. De and Mr. Sai were born and flourished. Locke, Hume, and other Enlightenment thinkers took the “knowledge of others” that had guided mankind for thousands of years into the laboratory and the dissecting table, and examined them one by one with quantitative relations and mathematical logic, thinking that this was the only way to get rid of immaturity and gain reliable knowledge.
Hume once said that for any book, we can ask: Does it contain any abstract reasoning about numbers or quantities? No. Does he contain any empirical reasoning about facts and existence? No. Then we cast it into the fire, for it can contain nothing else but sophistry and fantasy.
Well, that is the spirit of the Enlightenment, and according to Hume, almost all of the previous books that have guided human science and constitutionalism for thousands of years without verification are to be cast into the fire. Including, of course, those so-called classics of Chinese medicine.
Why? Because it is the same as the one that guided Soviet Russia, the fundamental theories are designed to be artificially conceived. Their so-called practice is in fact a smart-ass nonsense in the already defined prison. Their original designers did not think of themselves as finite human beings, but rather as all-powerful gods, trying to plan out eternal truths once and for all.
There are many ways to distinguish between man and God, or science and metaphysics, and one of the fundamental differences is how one perceives “true knowledge”.
In science, “true knowledge” is the last word. Science takes the route of empiricism, admitting that it is a limited human being who can only use human sensory functions to observe, measure, verify, and identify, and finally find and confirm that a certain kind of knowledge is true knowledge, and all scientific laws come from this way.
In metaphysics, “true knowledge” is the first to be established. Metaphysics takes the route of rationalism, using thought and reason to construct, reason and guide practice. In this process, “true knowledge” is a prerequisite.
Chinese medicine is a kind of metaphysics, and the five elements of yin and yang are the “true knowledge” first established thousands of years ago, and the theory, method, prescription and medicine are all attached according to this “true knowledge”.
Not only Chinese medicine and other weird and crazy so-called learning, but also other things that create some kind of “true knowledge” to guide human practice, such as the Soviet Union’s set.
