中医

People have tried to understand traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) the way they do with disciplines in the modern context and found it difficult to do so, as TCM deals with human beings instead of diseases. However, human beings are complicated: they cannot be interpreted solely by natural sciences, social sciences or philosophy; they exist, both physically and mentally; they are both partial and holistic; they are for one thing, man-made, and for another, made by nature. In this sense, they must be dealt with in a multi-dimensional, comprehensive and dialectical manner.

它们不能单靠自然科学、社会科学或哲学来解释;

they exist, both physically and mentally;

他们是存在的，无论是身体上的还是精神上的;

they are both partial and holistic;

它们既是局部的，又是整体的;

they are for one thing, man-made, and for another, made by nature.

一方面，它们是人造的，另一方面，它们是自然形成的。

In this sense, they must be dealt with in a multi-dimensional, comprehensive and dialectical manner.

在这个意义上，必须多维、全面、辩证地加以处理。
