這裡是五年千歲侯聖尊王十二王爺的家～

諸位善信大德  福安 :

為恭祝侯照宮 侯聖尊王 聖誕千秋
暨四宮合一，一起建廟。

2012/06/12(三) 晚上六點於礁溪侯照宮，
特辦聯合感恩餐會，

敬備菲酌恭候光臨。

       話說，今年2月14日西洋情人節，上網時看到朋友分享了當天Google首頁的連結，Google特意為了這天，做了個濃情蜜意的小動畫。平時我是沒多大興致再往連結裡按，可喜的是～那天我動了滑鼠的左鍵，把它看完了。

     動畫的情節非常簡單應景，一個女孩在公園裡跳繩，想要追求她的男孩，送來了花束，女孩看了看，繼續跳繩；男孩送來了巧克力，女孩繼續跳繩；接下來是快速閃過的畫面，重複著男孩把所有他能想到的東西，都拿來送給女孩，試圖讓女孩停下來跟他做朋友。

     最終，男孩沒招了！他拿了一條跳繩，在女孩身邊開始跳繩。這時，女孩終於停下來了，看看他，並且微笑加入他的跳繩裡，用共同的速度與頻率，一起開心的繃繃跳。

       自己認為最好的，真的是對方需要的嗎？合流，不就是用對方聽得懂的語言交談嘛，我當下這樣想。太好了，無所不在的提醒。

今天小小的改版了侯照宮的痞客部落格

從Dream City --> 變成清新的樂活風

那灌溉著小樹苗的FU，

就如同我們種下的善因及所發的善念一樣

需要持續的護持及呵護

希望大家喜歡這個版型，

也跟大家一起共勉「善護念」!

Classical Chinese Medicine -- talk to foreigners

Lately, I have a strange thought -- talk about Chinese Medicine to foreigners. Why should I do that? I don't know. Maybe just a sudden whim. Maybe this will be the only post in English of my blog.

Why not talking to the natives? Maybe it is too boring to talk over and over again to the natives. Maybe the natives are too polluted by the western medicine thoughts which are born from so-called science. Though I said "polluted", that's not mean I hate science. What I meant is that the natives are so blind worshiping science. Scientific Method is good, It helps us closer and closer to the truth after hypotheses are getting less and less. But this kind of methods have a serious fault, especially in medical area. That is, we can never cross out all of the hypotheses and finally find out the real truths. We can only find a general statement that under several hypotheses. Why it is so important in medical area? Because human body is an organism, it changes every minutes and every seconds. When we use scientific method to do dome research, we always make some hypotheses and say "All things are equal then ......do research". But that is not the case in the human body. All things are not equal, things change every moment.

So, what are these to do with Chinese Medicine? Because, we Chinese admit that human bodies(I should say everything in the world) are not static. They change every single second. Under this kind of sought, we had have evolved a mature medical treatments for human bodies in about 2000 years ago of Han Dynasty. Oh mine! It is ........so...."old"! Yeah, It is, and believe or not, it is the best medical treatments for human bodies. Even though Chinese Medicine have evolved again and again during the last 2000 years, It is getting worse, not better. The "modern" Chinese Medicine adopted scientific method to do research, but still can not beyond the achievement of  Han Dynasty.

"How arrogant you are to say these things". I don't have to convince you to believe. It's not religious worship. It's just some statements of facts. In the Han Dynasty, there was a medical writings named "Shanghan Lun". The book included some medical theories and most important included a lot of medical treatment and medicines to use for the treatments. It is like a treatment diary of a doctor and nowadays it is a bible of Chinese Medicine. Why I called it "bible"? Because when someone catch disease and his symptoms are match the content in the Shanghan Lun, and you took the medicine that suggested by the book. You will be cured in several hours just like you have never been infected, especially acute virus infection--like catching a cold. It's curative effect is so good as to god limits, so we call it the Bible of Chinese Medicine.

"Do I have to believe these bullshit?" No, you don't. I had experienced recovering form catching a cold in half of a day, and you are still taking Asprine and can not do anything about it. The purpose of the post is to let someone to know that there exists an effective medical treatment method. If you are interested in Chinese Medicine, try to find out it. Although it is very difficult for non-Chinese to understand it, this post gave another way to think about modern medicine. Cheers!

P.S. I'm not very familiar with English. If there's something unclear, please do not blame on me.
