Conclusion
In conclusion, with his personality the therapist brings
the spring to the patient who lives in a frozen land.
The core of the supreme therapist is the spring which
is named compassion( í±Ýè) in Buddhism, Jen (ìÒ) in Confucianism,
God¡¯s grace in Christianity.
The Taopsychotherapy is the fusion of the Tao and western
psychotherapy. By sorting out ¡°pure gold¡± among both.
One can restore, rejuvenate or activate both psychotherapy
and Tao practice (meditation) and give them the right
direction. Many Asian psychiatrists maintained that
the western psychoanalytic theory and technique cannot
be applied to Asian patients. However Taopsychotherapy
proves the ¡°pure gold¡± of western psychotherapy and
the Tao practice is essentially the same and can be
applied both in East and West, all over the world.
The late professor Edwin Reischauer predicted early
1970¡¯s that in the 21th century there will emerge new
civilization in the North East Asia for the first time
in 5000 years of human history. This civilization is
the fusion of the North East Asian tradition and Western
science. Although the western psychotherapy cannot be
said as science, this fusion of western psychotherapy
and the Tao which is the essence of North East Asian
tradition could be the forerunner of this new civilization
predicted by Reischauer.
