As mentioned above, “The four Great Classics” pitched a stabile road for the theory and clinics

of Chinese medicine, they are also the base for formation of the later medicine sciences.

In this view, it’s an unalterable principle of the combination of Chinese medicine sciences and

classic literatures.

From theoretic aspects profoundly, “the doctrine of the five elements”, “the viscera theory”, “the theory of channels and collaterals”, “the Qua-qi theory” and the nearly put forward “pansystems theory” and “the theory of physical constitution contained” in ”The Medical Classic of the Yellow Emperor” are all basic theories of “The Medical Classic of the Yellow Emperor” and basic Chinese medicine theory till today.《Treatise on Exogenous Febrile Diseases》，《Synopsis of Prescriptions from the Golden Chamber》 supplies clinical bases for the later science schools. For example, “the theory of the Four Famous Doctors in Jin and Yuan Dynasty” and “the theory of Seasonal Febrile Diseases” were both originated from 《Treatise on Exogenous Febrile Diseases》 and《Synopsis of Prescriptions from the Golden Chamber》. The “Membrane-Source–Opening Beverage” and “ three Elimination Beverage”Created in Youke Wu’s 《pestilential theory》”, and ，the “Stagnation Curative Prescriptions” of Qiangren Wang were all considered as the inheritance of 《Treatise on Exogenous Febrile Diseases》 and《Synopsis of Prescriptions from the Golden Chamber》，they can not result from no resources for all the natural sciences have a developmental course of inheriting the former and indicating the latter. Therefore, all the doctors in past dynasties are developing and innovating，just like relay race，time and space are both developing and advancing. In a historical view, the resource and the stream，the inheritance and the innovation，are all necessity of science development.

As a reference, the sciences of traditional Chinese medicine should consider “The four Great Classics” as base and yardstick to indicate theory and clinics. Only if we combine inheritance and innovation with “The four Great Classics”, Chinese medicine will look brand new and make rapid progress, contact with the time, it can be expected soon as a popular expectation.

What’s the way of Chinese medicine?

A Chinese two string violin player said that Chinese two string violin is a kind of national musical instrument, and he could play the violin concerto “Butterfly Lovers” and western music ”Carmen” etc. But if we grope from the development of national music, Chinese two string violin has its nationality, such as festive ”Horse racing”, ”Empty Mountain Birds Singing”，as well as lyric music as “River_Water” and “Moon Mirrored in Pools” etc.
