Course Overview
Medicine is a skill learned anew in every generation. It is handed down to us through time, and rekindled in the mind and experience of those living in this present moment. The problem for us moderns thus becomes how do we keep the bones of the ancestral wisdom intact while at the same time dressing them as our own for a modern time.
The underlying mental and perceptual architecture of Chinese medicine draws on a different worldview than that of our modern, rationalist European flavored duality. By comparison, Chinese medicine gives us a larger, deeper, more multi-dimensional tapestry from which to view the world and see how everything weaves together. It gives us a structure for attending to the manifestations and interconnections of qi as revealed in the material, vital energy, psycho-emotive and spiritual domains of existence, all without needing to draw firm distinctions between.
In this course, we will discuss qi anatomy in a way that will make it clearer to the modern mind while at the same time remaining true to the wisdom passed down from the ancients. In this seminar we will cover essential the differences in Eastern and Western thinking, the importance of the classics as a touchstone in our studies and why Chinese philosophy is a necessary part of a Chinese medicine curriculum. We will also discuss a framework of understanding that listeners may find useful in parsing the medicine.
