Abstract:
Foreword: There is a demand to compare traditional medicine with
modern medical science so that it will educate public for proper usage
of natural traditional medicine such as main concept, identifying
medical plants, reducing its volume, taste etc...1We mainly
concentrated on comparisement of Mongolian religious healers books
and chose following books for our research work that are “Thefour
basic medicine” by Yutig Yondongombo Tibeten doctor and 2 other
books by Mongolian doctor Luvsanchultem and Jambaldorj. Methods
we used are analyzing, summarizing, comparing and classifying.
According to a book “The four basic medicine” the animal starch
includes horn, bone, meat, blood, gall, fat, brain, skin, nail, hair, urine,
litter and body. Also, the book states their potential healing power. In a
book named “Beautification” it says there are11 medicine comes from
human and 124 medicine comes from animals and detailed
classification is stated here. “Medicine identifying science” by
Luvsanchultem Tsakhar gevsh (monastic title for a learned lama) says
that there are 54 animal starch medicineand it shows us how to be
aware of recognition and not to be mistaken. Here popular medicine
are determined how to find out that is in good or bad condition, so that
made it easier for us to identify and contributed greatly to Mongolian
medical science.
