Abstract:
Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)is rooted in traditional Chinese culture.Confucianism,Buddhism and Taoism are the cornerstone and essence of traditional Chinese culture,and also are the cultural and ideological origins for the formation and development of TCM emotional theory.The core viewpoints of TCM emotional theory such as the view of physique-spirit trinity,the theory of five zang-organs storing spirit led by heart spirit,and the correlation of personality with constitution,as well as the concepts such as'the unity of heaven and man','the unity of physique and spirit'and'imagery thinking'associated with the prevention and treatment of TCM emotional disorders,contain rich cultural connotations,indicating that the TCM emotional theory is a unique theoretical system different from the modern psychology and psychiatry.By studying the cultural connotations of TCM emotional theory,this paper discussed the inheritance and innovation of contemporary research on TCM emotional theory from the perspective of culture and medicine.It is proposed that the contemporary research on TCM emotional theory should focus on the following aspects:epidemiological and basic biological research on the pathogenesis and prevention of emotional disorders with different personalities and constitutions,study on the standardized discriminant mode of syndromes of emotional disorders with different personalities and constitutions,cross-cultural emotional theory research,study on the influence of contemporary social culture on the incidence of emotional disorders,and enhancement of the research on the prevention and treatment of emotional disorders with local cultural characteristics.The research on the TCM emotional theory from the perspective of culture and medicine will not only help to inherit and develop the characteristics and advantages of TCM emotional theory and to construct a theory and practice system of spiritual psychology with Chinese native features,but also realize the theoretical innovation and practical application through the theoretical and technological exchanges under the background of current medical globalization.
