The advancement of medical technology has made it possible to treat various incurable diseases. Especially organ transplantation can give another life to the patients who have organ failure and could not find any other ways to treat their diseases. According to the development of medical technology and immunosuppressive drugs, the rate and extent of organ transplantation is increasing these days. New medical technologies like organ transplantation brought on critical issues and these have changed the way of thinking and morals that has been the fundamental rules in our society. Bioethics is already an important field of medicine and oriental medicine should investigate the problem caused by the development of medical technology and life science and should form a view of life in oriental medicine. Oriental medicine is East Asian traditional medicine based on "Huangdi-Neijing", constructed by the system of Jangfu and meridian. The traditional therapies of oriental medicine have completed a scientific system on the point of view that looks on human and nature equally. This process continued to form a new medical theory as the environment was changed and the new diseases were appeared since "Huangdi-Neijing" and "Shoganron" showed a new scope to investigate human and diseases. Therefore, it is important to develop the point of view of oriental medicine as the medical situation was changed. Oriental medicine has a holistic view that considers human as a little cosmos resonated by a big cosmos and regards the possibility to recover and to regulate the energy in our body. This theory is a basic idea of oriental philosophy. Oriental medicine focuses on the balance of yin and yang of the body and tries to harmonize the imbalance of yin and yang caused by the life style and environment. This can solve many problems that cannot be settled by modern medicine and this can accomplish the new paradigm of oriental medicine that is needed these days.

인간이 사회구성원으로서 가치 있는 삶을 영위하기 위해서는 우선적으로 자신이 타고난 성격을 알아야할 필요가 있다. 그것이 직업을 선택하는데 있어서 중요하기 때문이다. 고전점성학의 성격심리 활용방안 연구를 통하여 네이티브(Native)는 음양(陰陽)의 변화에 따라 성향과 성격심리가 다르게 나타난다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 인간의 행동은 타고난 성격과 주변 환경의 영향에 의해 결정되기 때문에 성격을 알면 직업의 선택과 변화 등을 예상할 수 있다. 그러므로 고전점성학의 성격심리 활용방안 연구를 통하여 성격유형에 따른 네이티브의 직업적성을 분류하는데 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.

Environmental medicine has interest in the effect of natural environment on the human health. Nature is usually understoodas' sky(天)' and 'earth(地)' which implies the harmony of humankind and nature(天地相應). As can be shown above, environment concept is the basic in Korean Medicine which originate in "Huangdi's Internal Classic" as clear medical form. According to "Huangdi's Internal Classic" man ought to abide by the nurturing 'Tao(道)' which is the way of life. This can be explained as the principle of balance, specially of yin(陰) and yang(陽) as is represented by the transformation of the energies from the universe. Life through the four seasons is also referred in the classic upon when four different climates have some effect on people, and the regional effect on health is also written there. Under the strict modem view, the achievement of the classic in the field of environmental medicine may be treated as primitive, but it was induced through long-term observation, so that once was state-of-the-art result at that time. But to solve the intrinsic weak points in traditional environmental medicine and also to harmonize with modern science to contribute to national health, the way of modem research can be applied to traditional concept on environmental medicine. Natural scientific approach is to avoid superstition and incantation. Strict method approach is to enhance accuracy and reliance in clinical observation. Overall, predictability can help develop the effectiveness and efficiency of diagnosis, treatment, recurrence, and prevention in environmental disease with holy method of Korean Medicine.

This study searched fundamental basis of four-constitution medicine from the principle of "Yeokgyeong(易經)" that is scientific foundations of Dongmu(東武) Ijema(李濟馬)'s four-constitution medicine based on system of "Yeokgyeong(易經)" and looked into the principle of our-constitution medicine ontologically. That is to say, the translation of five phase(五行) that represented in "Hwangjenaegyeong(黃帝內經)" regulated that substance of five phase is spleen-earth(脾土). But four-constitution medicine mentions the substance as heart-earth(心土) in place of spleen-earth. Because of it's standpoint, the differences on meanings between spleen-earth and heart-earth on the substance of five-phase becomes motive to interpret scientific system of four-constitution medicine fundamental wrongly. For that reason, the research of this title is needed. The results was summarized as follows. First, in ontological view point of structure of four-constitution, five phase is substance and phenomenon, in other words it includes earth of unrevealed substance and wood, fire, metal and water of self-manifestation of existence. Second, in axiological view point, the four-constitution represent principles and contents of four virtues of human nature. And so the innate four virtues ontologically based on four-constitution of heaven. Therefore a human being is endowed innately benevolence, courtesy, justice, intelligence of four virtues. Third, the concept of greater and lesser of Eum(陰, yin) and Yang(陽, yang) in Dongmu(東武)'s four-constitution medicine is four-constitution in "Yeokgyeong(易經)". Greater principle(太極) and four-constitution is a relation of substance and phenomenon. Fourth, the origin and structure of four-constitution medicine includes the structure and principle of natural philosophical Eumyang and four-constitution, the human-centric theory and sciences of human nature and natural laws and medical experience of traditional oriental medicine and medical principle.

Objectives and methods : This research aims to study about conversion system of channels. In the present study, we investigated the movement and conversion of channels on the base of three step theory(三才論), Yeak(易), Hado.Laksea(河圖洛書) and five elements motion and six kinds of factors(Six-Qi). Results and Conclusions : The organization of meridian is composed of the following three parts: hand and foot, Yin and Yang, and the viscera and bowals. It is play an important role in energy flow and its conversion. The law governing energy conversion is divided into three groups i.e. taiyin-yangming channel, shaoyin-taiyang channel and jueyin-shaoyang channel group. Those are composed of Deadea(對待) of Six-Qi, making the body homeostasis. Taken together, we suggest that the conversion system of meridian is founded on the unity between the human body and nature which provides the medical workers with a necessary method of thinking in treating diseases.

이 글의 목적은 기독교 경전에 나타난 영(Spirit)개념과 동양고전에 나타난 기(Ch'i) 철학과의 대화를 통하여 두 전통 안에 녹아있는 우주적 생명과 생명의 내적 관계성을 통해 신과 인간의 궁극적 실재를 생태학적 윤리에 접합시켜 조명한 동서양 비교철학의 논문이다. 동서양 전통간의 대화를 위하여 서구전통에서 기독교의 대표적인 고전이라고 할 수 있는 히브리 경전(혹은 구약경전)과 신약경전에 나타난 영 개념의 어원적 의미와 뜻을 살펴보고 우주적 생명으로서 영의 철학적 구성과 윤리적 함축성을 살펴본다. 이 과정에서 서구고전에 나타난 경전의 영 개념은 중세 기독교 신학교부들에 의하여 '신학화' 과정을 거치기 전까지는 우주적 생명의 내적 연계성을 지니고 있는 자연적 성격이 강하였다. 서양의 영 개념과 함께 동양전통에 나타난 기 개념은 다양한 고전에 등장하고 있는 동양의 영성을 대표하는 개념으로서 서양의 영 개념과 비교하여 물질과 영성의 통합 기운으로 기의 철학적 구성과 윤리적 의미를 살펴보고 있다. 기는 우주적 호흡으로 만물에 내재하며 초월성과 내재성을 동시에 내포하고 있어 서양전통에서 대안으로 제시한 신과 세계의 내적 관계성을 강조한 범재신론의 모델을 철학적으로 제시하고 있다. 동양의 기 철학은 샤머니즘 전통의 자연성과 원시성이 내포되어 있는 기의 원초적 기원에서부터 도교전통의 노장사상, 유교전통의 철학적 이기론에 이르기까지 우주의 생성원리와 기의 운동성을 설명하고 있다. 두 전통의 만남은 영 개념과 기 개념이 공통적으로 단절적이거나 정체된 존재(being)의 개념이 아니라 우주적 생명으로서 연대성, 관계성, 생명성을 강조하는 우주적 과정(cosmic process)으로 자연을 객체화시켜 개발의 대상화로 전락시키는 생명파괴의 현실에서 생태학적이며 생명존중의 윤리의식을 강화시킬 수 있는 생명윤리의 철학임을 의미하고 있다.

Greeting the 100 year celebration of the death of Master Dong-mu, through investigating his thoght on Scholarship and Philosophy, and his new view of human being based on Sasang, I tried to reevaluate him as a Confucianist of practical mind. The conclusions were as followings ; 1. Dong-mu's recognition system of things is that based on the mind of summarizing things in view of Affair-Mind-Body-Object originated from Confucianism, and It developed 'the Marvel of Easiness & simpleness based on Yin-yang' into 'the Marvel of Easiness & simpleness based on Sasang' 2 Through understanding old Confucianism newly, Dong-mu summarized human being as having a natural character in view of Nature and Order and an autonomical character in view of Knowledge and Deed, and emphasized an autonomical character in view of Knowledge and Deed 3. In view of Knowledge and Deed, Dong-mu presented How to Say and Behave, and took it as a model of behavior in the new Confucianism. Also he presented the view of Knowledge and Deed based on Constitutions, and took it as a new mind of treatment. 4. Dong-mu can be estimated highly, in that he completed a new confucian view-point of Human being in the period of philosophic chaos, and executed the mind of General health maintenance and the mind of control others through a confucian self-control.

The education of traditional Korean medicine has been challenged for the lack of illustrated explanation of fundamental and pivotal concepts. The purpose of this study was to make suggestions for the diagrammatic concept on Qi. Thorough review was made performed to elucidate pictorial concept of Qi with medical classics and textbooks on the human physiology based on the central theories including Yin-Yang, five phase, and correspondence between nature and human. Medical terminology and its taxonomy for the Qi were examined here. We proposed more clarified terminology and related metabolic pathways for the design of schematic illustration of Qi. This study would contribute to the development of introductive drawings and educational materials fit for the apprentice.

This study purposed to examine Korean people's white clothes custom historically and to explain the aesthetic consciousness latent in the custom. Korean people preferred white clothes, even up to foreigners called them White-clad folk. Not only as in old historical literatures, but also in Soo-suh, Shin-Dang-suh including Sam-Kuk-Ji in China, white clothes were a real symbol to Korean people, ranging chronically far back to the age of ancient tribal countries, Sam-Kuk Period through Koryo Dynasty and even to modern age near the end of Chosun Dynasty, wearing with pleasure regardless of age, sex or social position. Even King himself in Koryo Dynasty is said to have worn white clothes when he was out of official hours. During the Koryo and Chosun Dynasty, white clothes were sometimes prohibited for various reasons including conflicts with the theories of yin-yang and the five elements but such regulations were not effective. To Korean people, white clothes were ordinary people's everyday dress as well as noble people's plain suits, saints' uniforms with religious meanings, ceremonial costumes, funeral garments, etc. The various uses show that white clothes have been worn by many people. The unique custom that a People have worn white clothes consistently for such a long time may contain very deep symbolic meanings representing the people's sentiments and spirits. The present study understood that the meanings come from religious sacredness, magical wish for brightness, the pursuit of purity originating from the people's national traits, assimilation with nature and the will to attain whole ascetic personality. Aesthetic attitudes based on aesthetic values summed up as sacredness, brightness, purity, assimilation with nature, asceticism, etc. are the aesthetic consciousness pursued by Koreans through their white clothes. For Koreans, white color is the origin of their color sense coming from primitive religions such as worshipping the sun and the heaven. In this way, Korean people's preference for white clothes began with primitive religions, was mixed with various social, cultural and religious influences and finally was settled as their durable spirit, symbol and beauty.
