试论祖国医学之平衡观

Academic Discussion of Equilibrium Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine

因为自然界为一大天地,人身为一小天地,人体形质与气化,脏腑气机之升降出入,气血、水火之平调,人与自然环境之适应,都必须在对立统一的基础上保持动态平衡,否则百病生焉。由于人的生命活动、人和自然的关系非常复杂,其间还有许多东西还未被人们所发现和认识。随着生物医学模式向生物心理社会医学模式的转变,我们在研究人体生命活动、生理功能和病理变化时,在继承发扬祖国医学遗产,促进中医现代化的过程中,认真研究、整理中医学之"平衡观",仍然有着极为重要的意义。

Nature is a big universe, and the body of mankind is a small universe. The form quality and qi transformation of human body, the qi movement of the zang-fu viscere, the balance of qi and blood, fire and water, the mutual adaptation of mankind and environment, all of these must be dynamically balanced, based on the unity of opposites. Otherwise, diseases happen. Because of complex mankind life activities, and the complex relation between human and nature, there are so many unknown things. With the change from biomedical model to biopsychosocial model of medicine, when we study mankind life activities, physiological functions and pathological variety, to inherit, develop, promote and modernize the traditional Chinese medicine, it is still very important to seriously study and summarize the equilibrium theory in traditional Chinese medicine.
