LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in Chinese; abstract in English only.Prof. S.C. Lee’s essay discusses in detail the characteristics of traditional Western and Chinese medicine. As a response to his essay, I introduce an integrated view of body and spirit that inspires an innovative understanding of illness and healing. I also compare this integrated view with the philosophy of medicine generated from Confucianism, which Lee addresses. The basic idea of the integrated view is that the human body must be taken as a whole-physical body, spirit, and the interplay between them in various dimensions. Healing is not the simple removal of illness or symptoms, but moving into a more complete and perfect state of existence along with heaven and earth.DOWNLOAD HISTORY | This article has been downloaded 89 times in Digital Commons before migrating into this platform.
