Striving to practice a medicine that leaves no significant part of the self behind.
Chinese medicine offers many sophisticated perspectives correlated with the numbers 0 to 12 (Figure 1.1), allowing us to assess the quality of physiological relationships expressed by the patient in each moment. Such a diagnosis, if conducted to the high standards of the medicine, offers an integral perspective on the functional balance of all aspects of a patient’s being. The ability to consider incoming diagnostic information from multiple perspectives simultaneously is a very highly evolved skill. Yet without understanding the universal mechanisms at work within humanity, it is easy to become lost in the endless complexity of differentiation. Failing to see the forest for the trees, we may lose connection to the pure simplicity at the patient’s core and to the overarching context that surrounds it. Lost in the plot, it’s easy to miss the theme. An integral diagnosis is able to embrace both the simplicity of the one and the complexity of the many. In this class we will consider the absolute (emptiness and luminosity) and relative dimensions of the self that include the body, mind, ego, superego, consciousness, the unconscious, psyche, soul, and spirit. To know the patient we must know ourselves.
