现代工业把人异化了。福特说，我明明雇佣的是两只手，怎么后边站着一个人？在一系列的简化和假设的基础上，产生了牛顿物理学，又产生了一个世界观：所有的东西都是可以被标准化、流程化、系统化的。
Modern industry has alienated people. Ford said, "Why is there a person standing behind me when I hire two hands?"? On the basis of a series of simplifications and assumptions, Newtonian physics emerged, and a worldview emerged: everything can be standardized, formalized, and systematized.
现代西医就是在这个历史过程当中产生，它把人视为理性的、冷冰冰的一团。把工人阶级的操作逻辑应用到了医学上。
Modern Western medicine emerged during this historical process, treating people as a rational and cold entity. Applied the operational logic of the working to medicine.
许多人批判中医的一个理由是：中医几千年来没什么进步，西医却在不断发展。
One reason why many people criticize traditional Chinese medicine is that it has not made much progress for thousands of years, while Western medicine is constantly developing.
但其实科学已证明，物种的变化以百万年为单位，人类的身体在三千年、甚至一万年以来都没有本质的变化。真正发生变化的是人类的生活方式而不是生命。
But in fact, science has proven that species change over millions of years, and the human body has not undergone any fundamental changes for 3000 or even 10000 years. What truly changes is human way of life, not life.
例如：现在大家不愁衣食，身体储备的就多了，肥胖、糖尿病、心肌梗塞、脑血栓……所以《黄帝内经》在3000年前，完全有可能对身体的了解已经达到很高的层次。
For example, now people don't worry about food and clothing, and their bodies have more reserves, such as obesity, diabetes, myocardial infarction, cerebral thrombosis... So it is entirely possible that the Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine has reached a very high level of understanding of the body 3000 years ago.
有种观点，认为科技的进步是以伤害人的本能为代价的。比如从前人能独立的把车从单位开回家，这是理所应当的，可自从有了GPS后，很多人就慢慢丧失了自己回家的能力。
There is a viewpoint that technological progress comes at the cost of harming human instincts. For example, in the past, it was natural for people to be able to independently drive their cars home from work, but since the advent of GPS, many people have gradually lost the ability to go home on their own.
其实我们曾经拥有很多能力，却都在「进步」中丧失了。而中医的意义，就是帮助你甩掉GPS，把车开回家。
In fact, we used to have many abilities, but they were all lost in progress. The significance of traditional Chinese medicine is to help you get rid of GPS and drive your car home.
