Original text.
Once upon a time, among the Yellow Emperor, he was born as a god, weak and eloquent, young and unbiased, long and sensitive, and achieved great success. I asked Shi Tian: I heard that ancient people were 100 years old in the Spring and Autumn Period, but their mobility did not decrease; Today's people, who are over half a century old, fail in sports, which is different from the times. People get lost. Qi Bo said to him, "Those who know the Dharma in ancient times are based on Yin and Yang, and they are based on several tricks. They eat and drink regularly, live regularly and don't work rashly, so they can live in harmony with God, and they live to 100 years old. " .
Today's people, on the other hand, take wine as their pulp, act recklessly, get drunk at home, exhaust their essence, dissipate their truth, don't know how to hold their full, always keep their gods, speed up their hearts, go against the joy of life, and be unrestrained, so they will fail at half a hundred. Under the guidance of ancient sages, my husband was called "the thief wind of virtual evil", sometimes avoiding it, being indifferent to virtual quietness, obeying the true qi, keeping the spirit inside and preventing illness.
It is based on leisure, less desire, peace of mind without fear, perseverance, obedience and desire, and each has his own place. Therefore, lust can not satisfy people's eyes, lust can not confuse people's hearts, ignorance, wisdom and virtue are not worthy, and they are not afraid of things, so they conform to the Tao. Days are also natural.
Translation.
In the past, the Yellow Emperor was spiritual when he was a child. Weak as he is, he is good at talking. As a teenager, he was quick-thinking, excellent in character and diligent in doing things. When I grow up, I have the virtue of being a gentleman and can take on the responsibility of governing the world. He asked Qi Bo: I heard that ancient people could live to be a hundred years old without aging; Nowadays, people will get old when they are over 50.
This is because times have changed. Or is it because people violate the way of keeping in good health? Qi Bo replied: Most people in ancient times knew how to keep in good health. Therefore, they can imitate the changing law of Yin and Yang in heaven and earth, and reconcile Yin and Yang by preserving essence. Eat moderately, live regularly, and don't work too hard, so that your body and mind can be coordinated to 100 years old.
People nowadays are not like this. They regard wine as a sweet spring and absurdity as a daily habit. They are often drunk and forced to indulge, so that they are exhausted and physically exhausted. They don't know how to keep their spirits full and don't pay attention to spiritual cultivation, so they are old when they are over half a year old. Ancient sages always told ordinary people to avoid evil spirits, keep their minds quiet and not be disturbed by other thoughts, so that the true qi can be natural and full of inner spirit, so that external evil spirits can not invade and make people healthy forever.
A person's spirit is comfortable, and there is no desire for distractions. Everyone can enjoy his own talented life as he pleases. Therefore, even hobbies and desires can not make his eyes tired, and evil thoughts can not shake his will. No matter whether he is stupid or smart, good or evil, he can't disturb his mind, so he is in line with the way of keeping in good health. This may be fate.
Notes.
1, "Once upon a time, among the Yellow Emperor, people were born as gods, weak but eloquent, young but unbiased, long and sensitive, and successful." This sentence is a compliment to the Yellow Emperor. It describes that he has the wisdom and talent of the gods since he was a child, and he can express it clearly in words. He was smart when he was a child, and he became more upright and smart when he grew up, and finally ascended the throne of the son of heaven.
2. "I asked Shi Tian: I heard that ancient people were 100 years old in the Spring and Autumn Period, and their mobility did not decrease; Today's people, who are over half a century old, fail in sports, which is different from the times. People will miss it. "This is the question that the Yellow Emperor asked Shi Tian, expressing his doubts about the longevity of the ancients and the premature aging of modern people.
3. "Qi Bo is the opposite: the ancient people, who knows, the combination of Yin and Yang, and the number of tricks. They live a regular life and don't work hard, so they can live in harmony with God. They will come to the end of their lives and spend a hundred years. " This is Qi Bo's answer to the question of the Yellow Emperor, and introduces the ancient ways of keeping in good health, such as following the balance of yin and yang, conforming to the laws of nature, eating moderately, living regularly, and not overworking, so as to live a long and healthy life.

People's daily life, diet, mood, etc. Will be affected by nature, so it is necessary to conform to the laws of nature for health preservation.
