离梦想更近

［马来西亚］ 傅凯铭 北京中医药大学

从年幼时我与中国结下的不解之缘来看，我十分幸运：第一，生为马来西亚华人，当地中华文化保存相对完好；第二，自小有机会接触《弟子规》《论语》等中华经典，起了个好头；第三，这段缘分没有断，我来到中国留学，学习中华民族的瑰宝——中医，坚持追求中医梦。就这样，持续的熏陶让我逐渐加深了对中华文明的理解并有所体会。

古人观景生情、借诗明志，大好山水就是能够震撼身心。

幼年的我，对中国的最初印象是那秀美的景色。小时候，家人数次带我游览中国。其中一次到四川，印象最深刻的就是九寨沟的景色：绿树成荫，湖水清冽，倾泻而下的是瀑布，一切美得如一幅画卷。我后来还去过桂林，体验过那冠绝天下的山水。以前不知道所谓“喀斯特地貌”，总好奇为什么江中有个大象！今日想来，不禁莞尔。

后来，走过珠江、深圳，看到了锦绣繁华；来华留学以来，也体验了北京的春柳与冬雪。雄浑的五岳、奔腾的黄河，人文与自然的和谐共存一直让我神往。

这，是我与中国的相遇。

兴许是幼年有所积累，我小学时中文水平不错。那时候的我，心里住的是一个个千古人物。大概在小学五六年级，我经常泡在图书馆里，读了好多中国故事。记得最清晰的，是一本讲中国古代忠臣的黑白漫画。张巡死守睢阳就义，齿碎目裂的情节至今难忘；岳飞一生精忠报国，心念光复河山；文天祥末世为相，抵御侵略，至死不降，正气凛然。当时读这些故事就觉得这些人好威风啊，敬佩之情，油然而生，甚至把画临摹起来收着。

后来我的人生阅历多了，同样的故事，看着中国足彩在线：的是感动。

最近看《典籍里的中国》，感触颇深：说书是皮，骨子里讲人。李时珍、司马迁、宋应星……为人民安康、文化传承，不畏艰苦、一生做好一件事。他们崇高的精神令人赞叹！

数千年历史，总不缺道德模范、科技标杆。这，是我与中国的相识。

一根银针，让我重新理解中国。

小时候我的身子弱，常常受寒，治疗效果总是时好时坏。在高中时，我家附近住了个中医。父母抱着一试的心态找了这个中医帮我治疗。说来神奇，经过治疗后，我的问题就解决了一大半。一根针、一包艾草、一双手怎么就把病给治了？受过中医的治愈之恩，我就对中医药产生了浓厚的兴趣。因缘际会下，学中医的梦想萌芽于心，高中毕业后我就申请来北京中医药大学学习中医。

对我而言，学中医是个转折点：尤其去年疫情肆虐，我们上起网课，相对地多了不少思考时间。中医如何治人？文化何以重要？通过良师益友的熏陶，对文化典籍的阅读，对于从大一开始产生的疑问，才慢慢有了更深的体会。

中医至简，以五行统物之本、六经辨病之源；中医至繁，一穴有一穴的气机、一症有一症之不同。抓住根本逻辑，掌握主要矛盾，才能坦然应对各种状况。医学如是，文化如是，现实亦如是。要做到这样，就得诚意正心，才能理性处事，才有修齐治平。自此，人与事就有了另一个面貌。“论病以及国，原诊以知政”，盖非虚言！

Closer to Dream

［Malaysia］ Foo Kai Meng， Beijing University of Chinese Medicine

I was quite lucky to have indissoluble bond with China since childhood． First of all， born to be a Chinese Malaysian， I grew up in Chinese culture which is relatively well preserved locally． Secondly， I had the opportunity to read Chinese classic literatures such asDizigui（Standards for Being a Good Student and Child）and theAnalects of Confuciusat a very young age． It was a good start． Thirdly， the bond with China was maintained after I came to China to study traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， the treasure of China and the dream career for me． In this way， constant edification has gradually deepened my understanding and experience of Chinese civilization．

The ancients viewed the scenery and expressed their feelings and ambitions through poetry． The great landscape is able to shock the heart indeed．

When I was young， the first impression on China was its beautiful scenery． In my Childhood， my family took me to visit China several times． During my trips to Sichuan Province， what impressed me most was the scenery of Jiuzhaigou with green trees， clear lake and cascading waterfalls． Everything was as beautiful as a picture． I had also been to Guilin to enjoy the peerless landscape． I didn’t know the so－called “karst landform” before and always wondered why there was an elephant in the river！ I can’t help smiling when I think of it now．

Later， I had witnessed the prosperity of China after travelling around the Pearl River and Shenzhen． Since studying in China， I have also observed the spring willows and winter snow in Beijing． I have been carried away by the majestic five mountains （Mount Taishan in Shandong， Mount Hengshan in Hunan， Mount Huashan in Shaanxi， Mount Hengshan in Shanxi and Mount Songshan in Henan）， the surging Yellow River and the harmonious coexistence of humanity and nature．

This is my encounter with China．

Thanks to the accumulation of my childhood， my Chinese was not bad in primary school． At that time， thousands of the ancients lived in my heart． In the fifth or sixth grade， I often stayed in the library and read Chinese stories． What I remembered best was black－and－white cartoon about loyal officials in ancient China． It was unforgettable that Zhang Xun in Tang Dynasty died in Suiyang with broken teeth and split eyes． Yue Fei in the Southern Song Dynasty devoted all his life to serving the country and yearning for recovery of the lost territory． Wen Tianxiang was the prime minister at the end of the Southern Song Dynasty who resisted aggression and fought to death unflinchingly． I admired their spirit so much that I sketched their pictures from these books．

Later on I had more life experiences and was more moved by these stories．

In recent time I watchedChina in the Classics， a TV program， and was impressed a lot． It was said books are skins and people in them are bones． Li Shizhen， Sima Qian， Song Yingxing… contribute their lives in their fields through thick and thin for the people’s well being and cultural heritage． Their noble spirit is so admirable．

During thousands years of of history， there was no shortage of moral models and benchmarks of science and technology in China．

This is my acquaintance with China．

A small silver needle renewed my understanding on China．

I was physically delicate when I was young and often caught a cold． The treatment effect was not satisfactory． When I was in senior high school， a doctor of TCM lived around our neighborhood． My parents took me to see this doctor to have a try． It is magical that half of my symptoms were gone after the treatment． How could a needle， a bag of Argy Wormwood and two hands cure me？ In addition， My sports injuries were cured by TCM too． Therefore， I took a strong interest in TCM． Through serendipity， my dream of learning TCM sprouted in my heart． After graduating from high school， I applied to study TCM in Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine．

It was a turning point for me to study TCM， especially when the epidemic raged last year， we had online classes and got more time for deep thinking． How does TCM cure people ？ Why is the culture important？ Through learning from good teachers and friends and reading ancient records， I gradually have deeper understanding about some questions arising form the first year at college．

TCM is very simple． It is based on the five elements theory to unify things and the six channels to identify the source of diseases．On the other hand， TCM is very complicated． One acupoint has one acupoint’sqi mechanism， and one syndrome is different from another． Only by grasping the fundamental logic and mastering the main contradictions can we calmly deal with various situations． This is how medical science works， so does the culture and everything in reality． To do this， we must be sincere and honest， as a result we can do things rationally and achieve peace and stability． People and things can take on a new look in this way． “To deal with disease is like to govern a country， the diagnosis is like politics．” It is very true！

Life always gives you something useful． An encounter can change your life． I extend my sincere thanks for this beautiful encounter with China． From the first meeting to read China in the classics， it is a spiritual baptism of the soul． I am fulfilling my dream in the study of TCM and determined to spread culture of TCM all over the world so as to let more people know the real beauty of China． Thank the teachers of Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine for bringing me closer and closer to my dream． I hope I can be like them and benefit more people with my knowledge of TCM and skills in the future．
