Abstract:
The reason behind the research According to officially registered note, Ali ibn Abbas was a pioneer in psychophysiology and psychosomatic medicine. He described how the physiological and psychological aspects of a patient can have an effect on one another in his Complete Book of the Medical Art. He found a correlation between patients who were physically and mentally healthy and those who were physically and mentally unhealthy, and concluded that "joy and contentment can bring a better living status tomany who would otherwise be sick and miserable due to unnecessary sadness, fear, worry and anxiety. Franz Alexander led the movement looking for the dynamic interrelation between mind and body.Sigmund Freud pursued a deep interest in psychosomatic illnesses following his correspondence with Georg Grodeck who was, at the time, researching the possibility of treating physical disorders through psychological processes. In the main hand book of Dharma Four basic tantras or treatises of medicine there are number of afflictive emotions, such as desire, hatred, ignorance and obscuration. These emotions impel karma (action) and create potencies in the mind that may ripen later as specific diseases. Going by this doctrine, traditional medicine lists basic disorders, divided into groups of four. The first group comprises disorders that result from the karma of previous lifetimes. Traditional medicine is based on the Buddhist belief that there are numerous unseen forces that can affect and even harm a person. These forces or spirits are suspected when there is no visible cause for a disorder. So our life style or the existence on the verge of nomadic and modern medical knowledge can easily give us a chance to conduct comparative research The reason behind the research Research in traditional psychosomatic medicine.
