[Being a matter of fact, disease is not diversified in Chinese medicine and Western medicine].
Being a matter of fact, disease itself is not diversified in Chinese and Western medicine, the only discrepancy between them lies on the different understandings. The implacable different cognitions of the two medicines on an identical fact just demonstrate some deviations from the truth. Since the thing researched is the same one, the diverge must be lessened when the cognition is pushing near the truth, hereby, the recognition for communicating is get ready. Besides, communication with other medicines is the objective requirement for Chinese medicine itself due to the insufficient auto-renewing in a long time, and interchanging with Western medicine is one of the very important ways beyond question. So, the problem needed to be taken into consideration is how to make it actual, but not whether it is the requisite.
