現化治療的方向

現化醫學昌明，眼見許多人面對疾病，動不動就開刀做手術。有些疾病需要動手術，可是更多的疾病在古時就能用藥物治療，不需要承受手術的痛苦、術後遺留的疤痕和副作用。舉個例子，現今婦人難產需要剖腹產手術，古代祖先早就遺留了很多醫書，記載了很多利產的方藥。

名醫張錫純在《醫學衷中參西錄》記載道：“族侄蔭棠媳，臨產三日不下，用一切催生藥，胎氣轉覺上逆。因其上逆，心忽會悟，為擬方用赭石二兩，野台參、當歸各一兩，煎服後，須臾即產下。後用此方，多次皆效，即骨盤不開者，用之開骨盤亦甚效。”

服中藥即能開盤骨產子，可見中醫厲害之處。讀過這篇病案後，該深刻反省現化醫學治療應該要走向哪一個方向? 是力求進步? 還是忘本退步?

Forgot to live

走到人生的一半旅程，才發現完全是依照這樣的方向走下去…

“First I was dying to finish high school and start college.
And then, I was dying to finish college and start working.
And then, I was dying to marry and have children.
And then, I was dying for my children to grow old enough for school so I could return to work.
And then, I was dying to retire.
And now, I am dying...... And suddenly realized, I forgot to live…
To make money, we lose our health. And then to restore our health, we lose our money”

有意思嗎? 會快樂嗎?
我也很想離開一切不快樂的源頭。
但又能去哪裡?
哪裡都沒有一片清靜。
Until I have died
