Philosophy:
- The Chinese Medicine Database is an international grass roots movement of Chinese medicine practitioners, which is focused on the translation of the Classical Chinese medicine texts.
|
| |
- If 1,000 people could support a project like the Database, we could translate the entire library of Classical Chinese medicine texts.
|
| |
- The Classical texts of Chinese medicine are the foundation of all Chinese medicine. We have over 3,000 years worth of medical knowledge in libraries all over the world. While modern Western studies of Chinese medicine are inconclusive about how and why Chinese medicine works, we have all the conclusive evidence that we need.
|
| |
- Research is about going to the source, and following a train of thought from the past, and elaborating and building on that thought for the future. How do we move our medicine forward without access to the Classics, and the thoughts of the masters like Li Zhi Shen, Sun Si Miao, Zhang Jie Bin and hundreds of others.
|
| |
- This Database is about roots, our roots, and the foundation of our medicine. Chinese medicine is extremely complex, don't we need the insight from the generations of practitioners who have come before us?
|
| |
- In the end, the sum of this project will not be about one person, but will be about access to something that practitioners of Chinese medicine who live in the West will never have access to otherwise.
