Guest guest Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 I wonder why there has been no discussion on this form about the way that the Taiwanese exponents and teachers associated with Lotus Institute Practice. It seems to me that it represents a radical departure both in terms of diagnosis and treatment from ‘standard’ TCM. For one, they espouse the simultaneous use of several formulas and then the pulse diagnosis based on Jimmy Chang’s by his own admission retains only about 20% of what is taught and learned in TCM school. Then they had a teacher teaching TCM Iridology based on the same bogus and flimsy methodology espoused by Bernard Jensen and Dr. Christopher in the early 1970’s. The upshot of which is prescribing several formulas simultaneously even those with opposing properties such as Long Dan with Ba Wei di huang wan. I know that are a large number of ‘orthodox’ TCM’ers on this list ( I respect them but have argued that there are several way to practice TCM) and I’m wondering what they think about Lotus Institutes way of diagnosis and treatment.
