@algancao – On Chinese Medicine Education
@acupunisher “Inner traditions” and many psycho-spiritual approaches seem like practitioner projection and excessive mental gyrations to me.

@bweapons Chinese medicine is based on a different metaphysic than biomedicine, but both evolve through creativity and peer review.
Scientism is the metaphysic that only science can know truth. This leaves out the observer, (s)he who subjectively experiences whatever.
Perhaps Chinese medicine favors subjective “quality of life” over changes in lab data. We spend lots of time trying to prove via lab data.
