Huangdi Neijing Bai Jing Dialect (1)
The first article about ancient naivety
Once upon a time, Huang Di was born smart. He was good at talking when he was very young. When he was young, he grasped the things around him quickly. When he grew up, he was honest and diligent, and became the son of heaven as an adult. He asked Qi Bo: I heard that people in ancient times were over 100 years old and showed no signs of aging; Now people are only half a century old, but their movements are very weak. Is this caused by different times, or is it because people nowadays can't keep in good health?
Qi Bo replied: People who knew the way of keeping in good health in ancient times were able to adapt to the natural changes of Yin and Yang in heaven and earth and reconcile the method of keeping in good health to the correct standard. Eat moderately, work and rest regularly, do not act rashly, and avoid excessive sexual intercourse. So they can live in harmony and unity, live to the natural age of talent, and die in their 100 s; People nowadays are not like this. They treat wine as water slurry and drink too much, making abnormal life a habit. They were drunk and had sex. Because of their wanton indulgence, the yin essence was exhausted, and because of their hobbies, the true qi dissipated. They are not good at controlling the mind, but only interested in the temporary agility of the mind, which is contrary to the fun of life and the routine of daily life. Therefore, they will age in half a century.
In ancient times, when teaching ordinary people, people who knew the way of keeping in good health always talked about avoiding evil spirits such as deficiency, evil, thieves and wind in time, eliminating distractions and delusions, keeping the qi flowing smoothly and keeping the spirit inside, so that diseases would not happen. Therefore, people can feel at ease, have little desire, be emotionally stable and not anxious, and be not tired of physical labor, and adjust their true qi so that everyone can get what they want. Everything people eat is sweet, and they are satisfied with everything they wear. Everyone loves their own customs and lives happily, and they don't admire each other regardless of their social status, so these people can be called unpretentious. Therefore, any improper lust will not attract their attention, and anything immoral or improper will not confuse their minds. No matter stupid, smart, capable or weak, they will not be tempted and anxious because of changes in external things, so they are in line with the way of health preservation. The reason why they can not age over 100 years old is precisely because they understand and master the method of self-cultivation and are not disturbed and hurt by internal and external evils.
The yellow emperor said: people are old and can't have children. Is it because of exhaustion of energy, or is it limited by natural laws?
Qi Bo said: At the age of seven, the woman was full of kidney qi, her deciduous teeth changed and her hair began to flourish. At the age of fourteen, Tiangui was born, and her pulse was smooth and strong, and her menstruation came on time, so she had the ability to have children. Twenty-one-year-old, full of kidney qi, born with real teeth and full teeth. Twenty-eight years old, strong bones and muscles, hair grows to the most lush stage. The body is strongest at this time. At the age of thirty-five, Yang Ming's meridian qi and blood gradually weakened, his face began to haggard and his hair began to fall off. At the age of forty-two, the Sanyang meridian was weak in qi and blood, with a haggard face and hair turning white. Forty-nine years old, ren pulse qi and blood are weak, and too impulsive qi and blood are also weak. Sunflower dries up, menstruation is cut off, the body is aging, and fertility is lost. At the age of eight, the kidney is full, the hair begins to flourish, and the deciduous teeth have been replaced. Sixteen-year-old kidney qi is strong, natural qi overflows, can be diarrhea, and can have children after sexual intercourse. Twenty-four years old, full of kidney qi, strong bones and muscles, full of real teeth. Thirty-two years old, plump and strong. At the age of forty, kidney qi declined, hair began to fall off and teeth began to wither. At the age of forty-eight, the sun was fading, his face was gaunt and dull, and his hair was gray at the temples. At the age of 56, the liver qi was weak and the activities of tendons and veins were inflexible. At the age of sixty-four, Tiangui was exhausted, with little essence, renal failure, tooth loss and physical fatigue. The kidney controls water and collects the essence of other viscera, so the function of the five zang-organs declines, and the muscles and bones are slack and tired. Therefore, the hair and temples are white, the body is heavy, the pace is unstable, and children cannot be born.
The Yellow Emperor said: Some people can still live when they are old. What is the truth?
Qi Bo said: This is because his natural energy exceeds that of ordinary people, his qi and blood meridians remain unblocked, and his kidney qi is more than enough. Although such people have fertility, men are generally not over 64 years old and women are generally not over 49 years old, and their essence has been exhausted.
The yellow emperor said: people who master the way of keeping in good health can live to 100 years old, and can they still have children?
Qi Bo said: People who master the way of keeping in good health can protect themselves from old age. Although old, you can have children. It is said that there was a man named Zhenren in ancient times who mastered the law of the change of Yin and Yang in heaven and earth, and was able to adjust breathing, absorb pure breath, get rid of solitude, hide his spirit in it, and exercise, so as to achieve a high degree of coordination between bones and muscles and the whole body. Therefore, his life span is as endless as that of heaven and earth, which is the result of his cultivation. In the Middle Ages, there was a man named "Shi Ren", who had a mellow morality and could master the way of keeping in good health in an all-round way, adapt to the changes of Yin and Yang, leave the interference of secular social life, accumulate the essence, concentrate his energy, keep him away from the vast world and nature, and keep his visual and auditory attention away from all directions. This is the way for him to prolong his life and strengthen his body. This kind of person can also belong to the ranks of real people. Secondly, there are people called saints, who can live in the natural normal environment of heaven and earth, abide by the law of eight winds, make their appetite correspond to the secular society, have no anger and resentment, do not leave the universal norms of the secular world, wear clothes decorated with ordinary patterns, and do not show off their behavior in the secular world. Outside, he is not physically exhausted by things, including, without any ideological burden, with quiet and happy as the purpose and carefree as the satisfaction. Secondly, there are people called sages, who can follow the changes of heaven and earth, the ups and downs of the sun and the moon, obey the ups and downs of yin and yang, adapt to the changes of the four seasons, and make their lives conform to the way of keeping in good health. Such people can also increase their life span, but sometimes they will end.
Huangdi Neijing Vernacular (II)
On the Great Theory of "Four Qi Capturing the Spirit" (Ⅱ)
The three months of spring are called the birth of the old, which is a season of bringing forth the new and budding life. Heaven and earth are natural and full of vitality, and everything seems to be thriving. At this time, people should go to bed at night, get up early, let their hair loose, unbutton their clothes, relax, walk in the courtyard, make their spirits happy, keep their minds open and keep the vitality of everything. Don't kill indiscriminately, give more and take less, reward more and punish less. This is a way to adapt to spring and keep your hair growing. If it violates the qi of spring, it will damage the liver, make the supply conditions of qi of summer Chang insufficient, and cold lesions will appear in summer.
The three months in summer are called "anti-show", which is the season when everything in nature is lush and beautiful. At this time, the weather drops, the earth's atmosphere rises, the heavens and the earth intersect, and plants bloom and grow vigorously. People should go to bed at night, get up early, don't hate the long day, keep happy and don't get angry. We should adapt Huaying's spirit to the summer atmosphere, make it beautiful, make it fluent, vent freely, be extroverted and have a strong interest in foreign things. This is a way to adapt to the summer climate and protect long-term cultivation. If it violates the qi of summer, it will damage the heart and make the conditions provided to the Lord of autumn harvest insufficient, and it is easy to have malaria in autumn and get sick in winter.
The three months of autumn are called tolerance, and the natural scene is calm and convergent because of the maturity of everything. At this time, the sky is high and the wind is urgent, and the atmosphere is clear. People should go to bed early and get up early, which is similar to the activity time of chickens, so as to maintain peace of mind and slow down the impact of cold air on the human body in autumn. Convergence mentality adapts to the characteristics of autumn tolerance, does not distract the mind, and maintains the clearing function of lung qi. This is the way to adapt to the characteristics of autumn tolerance and maintain the convergence of human body. If the qi of autumn harvest is violated, the lungs will be injured, and the conditions for storing qi and replenishing qi in winter are insufficient, and diarrhea will occur in winter.
The three months of winter, the so-called hiding, is the season when vitality lurks and everything hides. On this festival, Shui Han is frozen and the earth is cracked. People should go to bed early and get up late, and get up as soon as the sun shines. Don't disturb the spirit of the sun easily, work hard. Keep your thoughts deep in your heart, keep quiet, as if you have personal secrets, keep them strictly, and hide them as you want. Stay away from the cold, seek warmth, and don't let the skin open and lose, so that the yang will continue to lose. This is a way to adapt to the winter climate and maintain the function of human artifacts. If you violate the closed qi in winter, it will damage your kidneys, make the conditions for providing qi in spring life insufficient, and paralyzed diseases will occur in spring.
The weather is clean and bright, with its virtues and endless running. Because the sky does not expose its bright virtue, it will always maintain its inherent strength and will not leak. If the weather is gloomy, the sun and the moon are dim, the haze and evil spirits invade the mountains and rivers, the sun is blocked, the earth is hazy, the clouds are filled and the sun is dim, and the corresponding rain and dew will not fall. The qi of heaven and earth does not match, and the life of all things cannot last long. Life can't last long, and the trees in nature will die. When bad weather broke out, the rain and dew fell instead of falling, the vegetation was not moistened, the vitality was stagnant, the lush seedlings withered and lost face. Thieves come frequently, and heavy rain comes from time to time. The change of the four seasons of heaven and earth is disorderly, which violates the normal law and leads to the premature death of everything before its half life. Only saints can adapt to the changes of nature and pay attention to the way of health preservation, so they will not be seriously ill and their vitality will not be exhausted because they do not deviate from the development law of all things in nature.
If the qi in spring is violated, shaoyang will not grow, leading to stagnation of liver qi and pathological changes. If you violate the qi of Xia Chang, the sun will be weak and your heart will be weak. If the qi of autumn harvest is violated, the sun will not converge, and the lung heat leaves will be full. If you violate the gas stored in winter, you can't hide it without yin, leading to kidney gas failure, diarrhea and other diseases.
The change of yin and yang in the four seasons is the foundation of all life, so saints raise yang in spring and summer to meet the needs of growth, and raise yin in autumn and winter to meet the needs of collection, obeying the fundamental law of life development, so they can move and develop in the life process of birth, growth, hiding and hiding, just like everything else. If you violate this law, you will destroy the vitality and the true spirit. Therefore, the four seasons of yin and yang are the end of all things and the root of ups and downs. If you go against it, you will have a disaster. If you follow it, you won't get seriously ill, so you can know the way to keep fit.
For the way of keeping in good health, saints can practice it, but fools often violate it.
Obey the ups and downs of yin and yang, you can survive, and if you disobey, you will die. Obey it, and it will be normal; if you don't obey it, it will be chaotic. On the contrary, if you run in the opposite direction, your body will reject the natural environment. Therefore, the sage does not wait for the disease to happen, but treats it before it happens, just as he does not wait for the chaos to happen, but treats it before it happens. If the disease has occurred, it must be treated, and the disorder has already formed, it must be treated. It's like digging a well in the face of thirst, and it's too late to make weapons after the war.
Huangdi Neijing Bai Jing Dialect (III)
The third part is the theory of wrath.
The yellow emperor said: since ancient times, it has been based on communication with the weather, which is nothing more than the yin and yang of heaven. Between heaven and earth, within Liuhe, as far as Kyushu, as small as the nine orifices, five internal organs and twelve knots of human beings, it is all related to the weather. The weather comes from the five elements, and the qi of yin and yang is divided into three according to the ups and downs. If you often violate the changing law of Yin-Yang and Five Elements, evil spirits will do harm to human body. Therefore, adapting to this law is the foundation of prolonging life.
When the air in the sky is clean, people's spirits will be adjusted accordingly. If they adapt to the changes in the weather, their yang will be solid and dense. Although there are thieves and evil spirits, they can't harm people. This is the result of adapting to the change of yin and yang in time series. Therefore, saints can concentrate on adapting to the weather and understanding the changes of yin and yang. If you violate the principle of adapting to the weather, you will know nothing about the internal cause, block the external cause, and weaken the defensive spirit. This is because people can't adapt to natural changes, which is called self-injury, and the yang will weaken.
The yang of human body is as important as the sun in the sky. If Yang loses its normal position and cannot play its important role, people will lose their life span or die young, and their life function will be weak and insufficient. Therefore, the normal operation of celestial bodies is revealed by the bright sunshine of the sun, and the yang of the human body should also be outside, which plays a role in protecting the body and resisting external evils.
Because of the cold, Yang's body actually runs in the door mortar like a door shaft. If you are in a hurry and disturb Yang, it is easy for you to see it. Because it's hot in summer, sweating is more irritating, drinking and wheezing, and I talk a lot when I'm quiet. If the body has a high fever, it will burn like a charcoal fire. Once you sweat, the heat will dissipate. Because it is wet, the head is as heavy as being wrapped in something. If damp heat cannot be eliminated, it will damage the bones and muscles, resulting in contraction or relaxation, thus causing contracture weakness. It can cause edema because of the wind. The above four pathogens persist and hurt each other, which will exhaust the yang.
When the human body is overworked, the yang will spread vigorously, which is the gradual failure of yin essence. Repeated many times, the more prosperous the yang is, the more deficient the yin is. When it is hot every day in summer, it is easy to cause people to faint. When they have an attack, their eyes are blurred, they can't see anything, their ears are blocked and they can't hear. When they are in chaos, they are like the collapse of capital and the rushing torrent.
People's yang will go up and down when they are angry, and blood will accumulate in the body with qi, which will be separated from other parts of the body and make people faint. If the tendon is injured, it will relax, not voluntary movement. Sweating often can turn into hemiplegia. When sweating, it is easy to get small boils and prickly heat when encountering damp evil. Eating fat and polished rice often tastes strong enough to cause boils. It's easy to get sick, just like collecting things in an empty container. When sweating at work, when encountering the evil of wind and cold, they are forced to gather on the skin to form acne, which turns heat into sores.
Men's Yang Can not only nourishes the soul and makes the spirit bright, but also nourishes the bones and muscles and makes them flexible. If the opening and closing adjustment of sweat pores is abnormal, sweat will damage the yang, make the muscles lose support and bend the body. Cold is deep in the pulse, stuck between the flesh and stomach, qi and blood are blocked, stagnant, and long-term ulcers and fistulas. When the cold invades the acupoints to the five internal organs and damages the mind, there will be symptoms of fear and terror. Due to the stagnation of cold air, Qi Ying does not run smoothly, and carbuncle will appear if it gets stuck between muscles. When sweating, the body and yang will be weakened to some extent. If the wind and cold attack and Shu point is blocked, wind malaria will occur.
Wind is the initial cause of various diseases, and as long as the human body maintains the principle of mental stability and moderate rest and health preservation, then the muscle joints will be closed and have the ability to resist external evils. Although there is strong wind poisoning, it can't hurt people, which is the result of maintaining vitality according to the law of time series change.
If the disease persists for a long time and the pathogenic factors remain in the body, it will spread inward and further evolve. When the upper and lower levels are blocked and yin and yang are separated, there is nothing to be done, although there are good doctors. Therefore, the accumulation of yang qi and stagnation of qi will also cause death. For this yang accumulation, the method of catharsis should be adopted. If it is not treated quickly and correctly, if it is misdiagnosed by a careless doctor, it will lead to death. The sun's yang dominates the body surface in a day: in the morning, the sun's yang becomes active and tends to go outward. At noon, the sun's yang reaches its peak. When the sun sets in the west, the sun's yang on the body surface gradually decreases, and sweat pores begin to close. So at night, the sun be the spirit convergence, refused to stay inside. At this time, don't disturb your bones and muscles, and don't go near the fog and dew. If you violate the law of yang activity these three times in a day, your body will be exhausted by evil spirits.
Qi Bo said: Yin is good at hiding and supporting Yang; Yang protects the outer body and makes the body surface solid and dense. If yin is stronger than yang and yang is stronger than yang, blood flow will be forced. If heated again, the yang will be stronger, leading to madness. If the yang is too strong and the yin is too strong, the qi of the five internal organs will not be adjusted, so that the nine are ignorant. Therefore, the sage balances yin and yang and is invincible, so as to achieve harmony of tendons and veins, firm bone marrow and smooth blood gas. In this way, the internal and external harmony, the evil spirits are inviolable, the eyes and ears are smart, and the qi machine operates normally.
The common cold invades the human body, impairs the yang, gradually invades the five internal organs, and the yin essence gradually dies out, which is caused by pathogenic factors hurting the liver. Eating too much will hinder the elevator and cause diseases such as muscle relaxation, intestinal carbuncle and scabies. Drinking too much will lead to the rise and fall of qi. Excessive exertion will damage kidney qi and lumbar spine.
The density of Yang is the most important key of Yin and Yang. Yang dense means yin can persist. Yin and Yang are not harmonious, just like in a year, there is only spring without autumn, only winter without summer. Therefore, the coordination of Yin and Yang is the highest standard to maintain normal physiological state. Therefore, if the yang is strong and cannot be consolidated, the yin will be consumed. Yin Qi is peaceful, Yang Qi is dense, and people's spirits will be normal. If yin and yang are separated, people's essence will be exhausted.
Due to the invasion of fog and dew, there will be cold and heat. Spring is hurt by common cold, but it will suddenly diarrhea if you wait for it. Summer is destroyed by summer evil, and malaria will occur in autumn. In autumn, when dampness is injured, it will cause cough and may develop into flaccid syncope. Winter is hurt by cold, and next spring, there will be fever. The evil spirits of the four seasons alternately harm people's five internal organs.
Yin essence comes from five flavors of diet. The five internal organs that store yin essence will also be injured by five flavors. Overeating and sour taste will make liver qi overflow, leading to temper failure; Overeating and salty taste can cause bone damage, muscle shortening and depression; If you eat too much sweetness, you will feel stuffy, angry, black face and kidney imbalance; Overeating and bitter taste will make the temper too dry and moist, thus making the stomach stagnate; Eating too much spicy taste will damage the tendons, causing relaxation and mental damage. Therefore, carefully harmonizing the five flavors will make the bones strong, the tendons soft, the qi and blood smooth and the texture dense. So that the bones will be thin and strong. Therefore, paying attention to the way of health preservation and implementing it in the right way can maintain the vitality of talents for a long time.
Huangdi Neijing Bai Jing Dialect (IV)
The fourth part "synopsis of the golden chamber"
Huangdi asked: There are eight winds in nature and five winds in human meridian diseases. What is this? Qi Bo replied: The eight winds in nature are the evil of external evils, which invade the meridians and produce wind diseases in the meridians. The common cold will continue to attack the five internal organs and make them pathological. The four seasons of a year are interrelated. For example, spring wins long summer, long summer wins winter, winter wins summer, summer wins autumn, and winter wins spring. A season has seasonal climate constraints. This is the so-called constant victory in four seasons.
Dongfeng was born in spring, and it is often sick in the liver, and the qi in the meridians of the liver enters the neck. The south wind is born in summer, mostly in the heart, and the qi of the meridians of the heart is infused in the chest and hypochondrium. The west wind was born in autumn, and the disease mostly occurred in the lungs, and the qi of the meridians of the lungs was perfused in the shoulders and back. The north wind was born in winter, and the disease mostly occurred in the kidney, and the meridian qi of the kidney was perfused in the waist and thighs. In the long summer season, the central position belongs to the soil, and the disease mostly occurs in the spleen, and the spleen's meridian gas enters the spine. Therefore, in spring, evil spirits hurt people and make them sick. In summer, evil spirits hurt people and make them sick. In autumn, evil spirits hurt people and their shoulders are sickly; In winter, evil spirits hurt people and their limbs are sickly. Acacia is more common in spring, hypochondriac diseases are more common in summer, cold syndrome such as diarrhea in winter and long summer, malaria in autumn and joint pain in winter. If we don't carry out activities to disturb the sun in winter, there will be no neck and neck diseases next spring, chest and hypochondriac diseases in summer, internal cold diseases such as acupoint drainage in long summer, wind malaria in autumn and numbness, diarrhea and hyperhidrosis in winter. Essence is the foundation of the human body, so the yin essence is hidden in it and will not be released in vain, so you won't get fever in spring. There is plenty of sunshine in summer, and if you can't sweat and dissipate heat, it will lead to malaria in autumn. This is the general rule of diagnosing the four seasons diseases of ordinary people.
So: among yin and yang, there are also yin and yang. The daytime belongs to the Yang, and it is the Yang in the Yang until noon. From noon to dusk, the yin in the yang is tied. Night belongs to yin, and night crying is yin in yin. The rooster crows the dawn until the dawn, which belongs to the yang in the yin. Night belongs to yin, and night crying is yin in yin. The rooster crows the dawn until the dawn, which belongs to the yang in the yin. The situation of people also corresponds to this. As far as yin and yang are concerned, the exterior belongs to yang and the interior belongs to yin. According to the body parts, it is divided into yin and yang, the back is yang and the abdomen is yin. According to the division of Yin and Yang of zang-fu organs, zang-fu organs belong to Yin, fu-fu organs belong to Yang, and liver, heart, spleen, lung and kidney all belong to Yin. Gallbladder, stomach, large intestine, small intestine and bladder are all yang. What is the reason to understand that yin and yang have yin and yang? This is the basis of analyzing the four seasons diseases of Yin and Yang as treatment, such as winter disease in Yin, summer disease in Yang, spring disease in Yin and autumn disease in Yang, so acupuncture and stone throwing therapy should be applied according to the disease site. In addition, the back is yang, the yang in the yang is the heart, and the yin in the yang is the lung. The abdomen is yin, the yin in yin is kidney, the yang in yin is liver, and the most yin in yin is spleen. All of the above are examples of the internal and external relationship between Yin and Yang. The internal and external males and females of the human body are interrelated and correspond to each other, so human beings and Yin and Yang in nature are corresponding.
Huangdi said: Apart from the correspondence between the five zang-organs and the four seasons, do they have anything similar to sum up? Qi Bo said: Yes. For example, the oriental cyan is connected with the liver, and the liver is enlightened, and the gas reservoir of meridians is in the liver. The onset is often manifested as terror. The five flavors are sour, similar to vegetation, Wudian chicken and whole grain wheat, corresponding to the summer in the four seasons, and the sun rises in spring, so its qi is at the top of the five tones, 8%, because the liver is the main reinforcement. Besides, smell is a shame. The south is red, which is connected with the heart, and the heart begins to hear clearly, and the heart is hidden by qi. Among the five flavors, it is bitter, similar to fire, among the five animals, it is a sheep, among the grains, it corresponds to the summer in the four seasons, and among the celestial bodies, it is a fluorescent star. Most of his diseases occur in veins and five internal organs, and the five tones are emblems, the number of which is seven. Besides, the smell is burnt. Yellow is in the center, communicating with the spleen, the spleen opens in the mouth, and the gas reservoir of meridians is in the spleen, which is sweet in five flavors, similar to earth, cattle of five animals and millet of five grains, corresponding to the long summer of four seasons and the revitalization of celestial bodies. His illness mostly occurs in the root of the tongue and muscles, and his birth number is five tones and five. In addition, the smell is fragrant. The west is white, communicating with the lung, which is enlightened by the nose, and the gas reservoir of meridians is in the lung. Among the five flavors, it is pungent, similar to gold, among the five animals, it is a horse, in the grain, it is rice, corresponding to the autumn in the four seasons, and in the celestial body, it is a white star. His illness mostly occurs in the back and fur, which is the quotient in the five tones, accounting for 9%. Besides, it smells fishy. The north is black, just like the kidney. The kidney began to understand that the gas reservoirs of Yin and Yang and meridians existed in the kidney. Five flavors are salty, similar to water, # five beasts, five grains and beans, corresponding to the winter of the four seasons, and the stars of the celestial bodies. Most of his diseases occurred in streams and bones, and there were six feathers in the pentatonic. Besides, its smell is rotten. Therefore, a doctor who is good at feeling the pulse can carefully observe the changes of the five internal organs, understand their compliance, sum up the correspondence and contact between yin and yang, exterior and interior, and men and women, and keep these profound truths in mind. These theories are very valuable. Don't teach those who don't really study and don't have certain conditions. This is the correct attitude to cherish and cherish this knowledge.
