連續、和諧與超越 - 從考古學、人類學看中國傳統的身心關係=Continuity, Harmony and Transcendence--An Archaeological and Anthropological View on Traditional Chinese Body-Mind Relationship
Based on Dr. Kwang-chih chang’s theory of “continuity and rupture” which illuminates the different perspectives of the origin of civilization between the East and the West, the author emphasizes the significant meaning of the traditional Chinese concept of continuity and the “body-mind unity” in the development of the world civilization. Furthermore, employing his own theory of “harmony and equilibrium cosmology” derived from his study on the folk culture of Taiwan and Southern Fukien; and from his embodiment research project on “Culture, Qi and Traditional Medicine”, the author illustrates how the process of body-mind unity and its transcendence were formulated in traditional Chinese culture.
