Yin and Yang, well-known but invisible, can only be embodied by depending on specific things or phenomena. According to the corresponding principle between man and heaven and earth, the Yin and Yang of nature and the Yin and Yang of human body correspond to each other, so it is called Yin and Yang correspond to each other. As Ma Shisi said: "with the Yin and Yang of heaven and earth, the Yin and Yang of all things, combined with the Yin and Yang of human body, its image is corresponding." This chapter mainly discusses the basic concepts and contents of yin and Yang in Neijing, and enumerates the application of the theory of yin and Yang and five elements in traditional Chinese medicine.
[original]
Yellow Emperor said: Yin and Yang, the way of heaven and earth (1), the discipline of all things (2), the parents of change (3), the origin of life and death (4), the house of gods (5), the treatment of disease must be based on this (6).
Therefore, the accumulation of Yang is heaven and the accumulation of Yin is earth (7). Yin static Yang manic (8), Yang Sheng Yin long, Yang kill Yin ZANG (9). Yang Hua Qi, Yin shaped (10). Cold generates heat, and heat generates cold (II); cold generates turbidity, and hot generates clear (12); when the clear Qi is in the lower part, it will generate nourishment and discharge; when the turbid Qi is in the upper part, it will generate meningeal brain stem occupying the position of venereal disease (13), which is the reaction of yin and Yang (14), and the reverse of disease is from (15). Therefore, the clear Yang is the sky and the turbid Yin is the earth. Cloud on the earth's atmosphere, rain under the weather; rain out of the earth's atmosphere, cloud out of the weather (15). Therefore, Qing Yang goes out of the upper orifices, and turbid Yin goes out of the lower orifices (17); Qing Yang is hairy, and turbid Yin goes through five Zang (18); Qing Yang has four branches, and turbid Yin goes to six Fu (19). (plain question, yin and Yang should be alike)
(1) Yin and Yang, the way of heaven and earth: Yin and yang are the laws and rules of nature. Heaven and earth, generally speaking, refers to natural Joe. Tao, law, law.
(2) The discipline of all things: Yin and yang are the guiding principles to induce things. Compendium is a program. "Shuowen Jiezi note note note:" the general hold for the class, divided into disciplines, such as nets, rope its class, mesh its discipline
(3) Parents of change: Yin and yang are the root of things. Parents are the original and fundamental meaning.
(4) The origin of life and death: Yin and Yang is the origin of the emergence and extinction of things. To live, to be born; to kill, to die. The beginning is the origin and the starting point.
(5) The house of gods: Yin and Yang is the place where the internal power of the movement and change of all things in nature is generated. A place where people live and hide things. Zhang jiebin's note: "gods come from Yin and Yang, so Yin and yang are the house of gods."
(6) This refers to Yin and Yang. Wu note: "all things in heaven and earth, those who change life and death but are gods, are all based on Yin and Yang, so Yin and yang are the root of disease. Therefore, to cure a disease, we must seek its origin; either from Yin, or from Yang, we must seek its origin to cure it. "
(7) The accumulation of Yang is the sky and the accumulation of Yin is the earth: the light and clear matter rises upward and accumulates into the sky; the heavy and turbid matter subsides downward and condenses into the earth. Product, convergence. Yin and Yang refer to the material state of light Qing and heavy turbidity.
(8) Yin is quiet and Yang is manic: the Yin is soft and the Lord is quiet, the masculine is just and the Lord is manic.
(9) Yangsheng Yin Chang, Yangsha Yin Zang; intertextuality. Yin and yang are not only the basis of life and death, but also the basis of long Tibet. Yang can produce and kill everything; Yin can grow and store everything.
(10) Yang changes Qi, Yin takes shape: Zhang jiebin notes: "Yang moves and disperses, so it changes Qi; Yin is static and coagulates, so it takes shape."
(11) Cold generates heat, hot generates cold: This is an example of the mutual transformation of cold and heat, which shows the mutual transformation of yin and Yang under certain conditions.
(12) Cold generates turbidity, hot generates clear: Zhang jiebin notes: "cold stagnates, so generates turbid Yin; hot rises and dissipates, so generates clear Yang."
(13) Distention: This refers to fullness of the chest and diaphragm.
(14) Reaction: that is, abnormality. Yang should rise above and vice versa, and Yin should fall below and vice versa, which is the opposite of regulating yin and Yang.
(15) Inverse from: a compound word with partial meaning, that is, the meaning of inverse. It refers to the retrograde of yin and Yang.
(16) Cloud on the earth atmosphere, rain under the weather, rain out of the earth atmosphere, cloud out of the weather: the transpiration of the earth atmosphere by the heat of the sun rises to the cloud, the weather is cold and the condensation falls to the rain, and the cloud becomes the weather, the rain becomes the earth atmosphere. It can be seen that the weather cloud comes from the water of the earth atmosphere, and the water of the earth atmosphere comes from the weather cloud. Through the natural phenomenon of the mutual change of clouds and rain, this paper explains the principles of the mutual use and transformation of yin and Yang, the rise and fall of yin and Yang, the interaction of yin and Yang, and the transformation of all things.
(17) Qingyang goes out of the upper orifices and turbid Yin goes out of the lower orifices: the natural gas inhaled by the human body and the vaporization of the food and water valley generate Qingyang from the head orifices, producing sound, smell, sight, hearing and other functions. The turbid Yin is changed into feces and urine, which are discharged from the front and back of the body. Upper orifices refer to the ears, eyes, mouth, nose and other head and face orifices; lower orifices refer to the front and back Yin.
(18) Clear Yang hair, turbid Yin go five Zang: the Qi of clear Yang emanates from the skin, viscera space to warm and nourish. The Qi of turbid Yin tends to be stored in the five internal organs. Qingyang mainly refers to Wei Qi. Turbid Yin refers to blood essence and body fluid. "Qi" refers to the gap between the skin, muscles and viscera. Send, diverge, disperse; walk, run, belong.
(19) There are four branches of Yang in the Qing Dynasty, and the turbid Yin belongs to the six prefectures: Zhang Zhicong notes: "the four branches are the foundation of the Yang, and the six prefectures pass on the chemicals without storing them. In this way, the pure Yang of diet is enriched in four branches, and the turbid one belongs to the six prefectures. "
[introduction]
This paragraph mainly discusses the following issues:
1. Expound the basic concept of yin and Yang and the important significance of inducing medicine. It points out that all things in the world are constantly moving, changing, newborn and dying. The reason why things can move, develop and change lies in the fact that there are opposites and unity of yin and Yang in things. It is pointed out that the two sides of yin and Yang, in the process of their movement and change, are not only antagonistic, but also interdependent and mutually useful. Under certain conditions, they can transform each other. It reflects the theory of yin and Yang, which is a simple materialist dialectics philosophy in ancient China. It also points out that "Yin and Yang" is of great significance in the field of medicine and the guiding ideology of clinical treatment is "treatment must be based on the root".
2. The natural phenomena such as heaven and earth, calm and impetuous, cold and hot, cloud and rain are used to explain the attribute characteristics of yin and Yang and the relationship between their opposites, interdependencies and transformations, and to clarify the basic content of the theory of yin and Yang.
3. To explain the physiological and pathological phenomena of human body by the ascending and descending movement of yin and Yang, and to put forward the physiological view of ascending and descending of turbidity. The view that the Qi of Qing Yang rises upward and outward, and the Qi of turbid Yin sinks downward and inward provides a theoretical basis for various therapeutic methods in later therapeutics. Such as the treatment of deafness, such as the method of Invigorating Qi and promoting Qi, the method of promoting lung and dispersing lung, the method of Warming Yang, the method of attacking stomach and intestines stagnation, and the method of promoting water and chasing water to treat edema, all developed under the inspiration of this theory.
