AB - Ge-Hong(283-365) is an chinese eminent taoist scholar who systemized the thought of Shin-shun(Immortals) mainly centered on external alchemy. He was also interested in medicine. His thought can be regarded as an example that united taoist thought and chinese traditional medicine systematically. He had a positive view of destiny that we can develop our own destiny. This is similar to a standpoint of chinese traditional medicine. He accepted the theory of 'tao' of early philosophical taoism, and also made much of 'chi'. Based on this point of view, he presented a view human body and mind are equally important. This theoretical frame acts as a common bottom of taoist thought and chinese traditional medicine. His methods of nourishing life places priority to keep body and mind healthfully through many ways. The major premise of nourishing life is to control one's avarice and to manage moderate life observing the nature. Besides he stressed on meeting sickness rationally through medical healing. Especially he made much of external alchemy, and presented Shin-shun(Immortals) of as an ideal state of human being. This view has a mysterious aspect different from general standpoint of medicine. In the process of systematizing the thought of Shin-shun, he made use of medical products as an important basis. His medical products can be included in so called taoist medicine. He didn't only apply medical treatments to propagate Taoism but also accepted medical treatments as an important way in attaining 'Tao'. His writings are valued as an important part of the history of Chinese traditional medicine and had a great effect on developing taoist medicine.
