意象思维的本源与临床

The origin and clinical practice of image thinking

中医药学始于农耕文明,直至当今仍具有重要的临床价值,为国民健康提供着有力的保障。作为国学重要分支的中医药学能绵延至今,在于它囊括国学的精髓,符合国人的思维。因此,弘扬原创思维是中医药学发展的前提。结合国学理论对中医原创思维之"意象思维"溯源和梳理,重新认识意象思维启发下司外揣内的思维方法,目的不在比较中医学与他学之间的优劣,重在阐释"以象为素、以素为候、以候为证"中医证候理论的本源。同时以中医学形神共俱、君相互感心身医学模式为切入,阐释意象思维在中医临床中的实践体现。

The roots of TCM extend back to antiquity — agricultural civilization,until now TCM has been working on clinical practice to ensure national health. TCM,an important branch of Sinology,is a capsule of spirit of Sinology,conforming to Chinese thought. Therefore,carrying forward the original thinking is the premise of development of TCM. This paper which traced and summarized ＂image thinking＂based on the theory of Sinology,tried to explore again the thinking way of＂judging the inside by observation of the outside＂enlightended by image thinking. This paper aimed to interpret the origin of TCM pattern theory of ＂taking manifestations as factors,factors as symptoms and symptoms as syndrome＂,not to compare TCM with other medicines. At the same time,the clinical practice of image thinking was explained from the psychosomatic medicine model of ＂inseparability of the body and spirit,mutual induction of sovereign fire and ministerial fire＂.
