What is the "Perception" in "Medicine Is Perception"?：A Dialogue with Heidegger's Ontology
Abstrak
This paper aims to transcend traditional semantic interpretations of the phrase "medicine is perception" by engaging in a philosophical dialogue with Heidegger's ontology. It re-examines the essence of perception through the lens of existential thought. The emergence of "medicine is perception" is rooted in "Dao" of medicine, mediated through the manifestations of illness, and materialized in therapeutic expressions. The reflection on perception in medicine and the poetic meditation on being share a common pursuit of fundamental questioning. While poetic thinking seeks being through a process of subtraction, the emergence of medical perception, as a form of spiritual thinking, requires both sensory and rational cognition. Ultimately, both perception in medicine and poetic thinking on being presuppose the dissolution of the subject-object dichotomy, challenging the positivist logic of current evidence-based medicine.
