The purpose of this study was to understand the patient loss consciousness from the point of Taoistic view especially Lao-tzu.
Is it possible the nursing care without knowing the patient loss consciousness. Nowadays we need to establish nursing concept on the basis of our traditional thought and life philosophy. Taoism is our deep-rooted traditional religion.
One of the Taoist, Lao-tzu wrote Tao Te Ching composed of 81 verses. Tao and Te are the essence of Taoism. Tao is the higher unity of all things and the inner reality of all things and limitless. Te is practical norm and creative intelligence. According to the Taoists, our daily life gains its significance by being rooted in a deep underlying harmony or ultimate reality. Lao-tau said, "To obtain Tao means to lose everyday". Through losing one beings to approach the realm of quietness and enter the realm of nonbeing. To enter the realm of nonbeing is to have reached the ground of the great sympathy.
Every patient experienced loss consciousness in any situation. Loss means another beginning. The patient experienced losing of physical, psychosocial aspects begins to approach the realm of health. Through the understanding of Lao-tzu´s great emptyness, the patient takes the positive feeling. peace, stability, hope, joy instead of the negative feeling, anxiety, anger, frustration, depression, shame etc. This is the symbolic meaningful paradigm shift.
