Meridians and Acupuncture (2-3) Overview of the Twelve Meridians

(Dr. Chen Yi Kui)

Turning to the hand on page 15, the representative of the hand means that this meridian is in your hand, don’t run to your feet. Chinese medicine thought it was metaphysics before everyone had studied it. In fact, it is not. It is a very real materialism. In the study, it talks about hands. It is not a virtual hand. It is a real hand. Then, let’s talk about the Taiyin of the hands. In the hexagram, the Taiyin is a multiplicative noun in the hexagram of yin and yang and the five elements. Therefore, if it uses acupuncture and moxibustion, there are three Yin, Taiyin, Shaoyin, and Jueyin, and the feet are also three Yin, and the same is true for Taiyin, Shaoyin, and Jueyin. Therefore, there are three yin in the feet, three yin in the hands, three yang in the feet and three yang in the hands. Every hour is governed by a warp, exactly one cycle. The earth is a rotating ball, and a rotating ball is opposite to human beings. We people express our attitudes with the sun every day. We have to make the standard from there at noon, and the sun makes the standard. In the middle of noon, our time is set by the sun. Where is the sun? In the sky, it is Taoism. Because humans are on the earth, then you humans need to coexist with the earth. It takes the time of the earth. The earth makes a full circle, twelve hours, which corresponds to the twelve hours of human beings. So why do many people think that they should sit cross-legged when cultivating the Tao, and after sitting cross-legged, they should be straight, their tongue should be on top of the palate, and the two channels should be governed by both sides. So why is it like this? Because the basic idea of ​​Taoism is that the earth and the earth follow the sky. What is the sky? Sun. The law of heaven and the sun has its view of the universe and the law of nature. They are all together, you must understand this together, what exactly is your meridian in the together.

Let's look at the lung meridian of the hand Taiyin, but it is not the lung, it is the lung meridian and not the lung, so the lung meridian is a term for this meridian. This noun is substituted for the noun in our internal organs. So you have to rub your lungs to rub your lungs meridian to reach its lungs, it is very difficult. This is a lot of foreigners who have just begun to think that Chinese medicine is inexplicable. It is clear that the lungs are there, but it is not the lungs.

It is written here that the scripture is replaced by Xin in the ten stems, which belong to Qi, and heavenly stems belong to Qi. The five elements are yin and metal, starting from the ZhongFu ending up with less ShaoShang, more qi and less blood, injecting qi and blood into this at Yin hour (3~5 a.m. local standard time). Note that this is an old saying. When everyone talks about Yin hour, the qi and blood ran there, then the note means flow. Our language is not, qi and blood are injected into this, Yin's energy. What is meant by such Yin, Qi and blood like Yin, such energy, functional energy. So some people read ancient prose, you can’t express it in the tone of the ancient times. I’m talking about the very important tone of ancient prose. In the Zhou dynasty, note that this was the Zhou dynasty. There was spring and autumn in the Zhou dynasty. Yes, in the Warring States Period, Chu State had a tone. Until now, many people seldom call "xi". What does that mean? Sign with an exclamation, come back “xi”! Come back! This is an exclamation. We have no way to describe it, nor is it a catch phrase. In the end, we can't talk about it. It's not a conjunction. The connection is still there! The meaning of exclamation is close to despair, Li Sao written by Qu Yuan. When I come to the priest again, when I recite the sacrificial texts, I will be sorrowful at the end, and when I come to Shang-xiang, the food is to eat! Look at the gods, buddhas, and people. They must be eaten at the end. The last word in the sacrificial text for the deceased must be eat, and to eat is to eat. How to eat? The sacrificial text is ready for you to eat.

Continuing to talk about it, here we will talk about qi, heart, and blood. Blood is quality Yin. Its metal is qi, and qi is convergence. Yin is very important. In the time classification on the earth, the energy combined with yin is armoured Jia Bing, and Wu, its Qi is Xin, so the lung has a function. In addition to our Chinese theory, in addition to giving you a perfect circulatory system, the basic energy represented by this circulatory system is diffusion, upward and circulation action. The interaction effect is very consistent with the explanation of the lungs. If we don’t have oxygen, no material in our body can be oxidized or burned, and cannot produce energy. This is the most important basis of Bing, Bing is fire. You must burn. Without Bing you can't do it. How many words are there in the earthly branch that has Bing? There are only two words with Bing, and there are Yin and Si. The Bing of Yin supplies the energy of oxygen, and the Bing of Si supplies the energy of sugar. This energy supplies Bung, the energy of sugar, insulin (Insulin), all the sugar we eat does not have Bing,it can’t burn, so Chinese culture is represented by a symbol, but this symbol stands there, and its function is different. One is the real oxygen entering the lungs, but when it comes to the pancreas, it is the insulin of Bung (Insulin) is a hormone that allows our blood sugar to be used, and then releases a lot of energy. The lungs have such a good function.

Chinese people use some symbols designed by themselves to be extremely frugal. Foreigners are not. When a foreign country discovers something new, there is a new term. So why is it that when a foreign country reads a certain profession, after three or five year it is executed again, why? When discovering something new, there are a lot of new nouns, but the dictionary can't find them. The Chinese fix those words. After you understand them, you can get them together very well. This is an amazing place for the Chinese. Chinese people probably use the things they already have to combine them into a very complete operation that you want to use. Western is not. When Western is when it has new symbols, and new things have new terms, so we say Western scholarship, Taiwan has many Ph.Ds. After returning to Taiwan, they work as assistant professors in universities. They have to go online every day to see other people publish new paper, otherwise you will not be able to keep up with them.

Next, here is the song of the acupoints of the Taiyin Lung Meridian, and the basic evolution of any method and technology in China is sung with songs. The earliest is spiritual, like our religious spirituality, the earliest poems of the Book of Songs, the Book of Songs includes: Guan Guan Suijiu, in the continent of the river, gentle ladies and gentlemen want to chase, it sings. It can be seen that Chinese acupuncture gradually formed after the Shang Dynasty, so even the acupuncture points can be sung very well. In both Christian and Catholic churches, chants are sung. In fact, they learned from the Chinese. The Chinese people first used the poems in the Book of Songs, and the songs sung by worshiping nature are quite good. The worst thing is that after the Chinese religion arrived in the Han Dynasty, its Taoism actually sang. Who should sing it for? They are sung to the dead more often, and the main words sung by the priest are more to the dead. It is a pity that this is the case. The songs sung in Western churches are for the living, and the songs in Chinese religions are for the dead. There is also very important acting. Westerners acted for churches and nobles. Therefore, there are noble opera houses in Western countries. Chinese acting is for gods. If you want to reward gods, there is a stage next to the temple. This is how rewarding gods come, and their ideology and culture are different.

My hand Taiyin lung meridian song is not from the master of acupuncture and moxibustion, it is in the acupuncture master book. The songs of the master of acupuncture and moxibustion are different. The song it sings is too thin, so it should be uttered in every inch.

Song of hand Taiyin lung meridian points,

(手太陰肺十一穴,中府雲門天府訣,俠白尺澤孔最存,列缺經渠太淵涉,魚際少商如韮葉)

Hand Taiyin Lung eleven points, Zhongfu Yunmen Tianfu Jue, Xia Baichi Zekong are the most preserved, LeiQue JingQu, TaiYunn She, YuJi ShaoShang are as small as leeks.

It’s like a place where the distance of a leek leaf is crooked. I will tell you how to memorize a key. Photocopy this section of the song and paste it under the meridian map. Don’t read these words when memorizing them. Look at the meridian acupuncture points. You will know where the acupuncture points are. This key has been studied for so many years, and I have been teaching for so many years. I used to have a hard time. There was no bronze figure at the time. There was no picture before. I followed the teacher every day. The teacher pressed there. It’s bad. If the teacher is hungry, press the acupuncture point a little and eat. Just press down a little bit when you're full.

Speaking of the same body size, no matter how long the elbow is, this place is divided into 12 equal parts called 12 inches. A child’s arm is 12 inches when he is just born, and his arm is 12 inches so short. This is an amazing part of Chinese medicine, because my trick is great. The only one who was selected in the Republic of China to be able to teach acupuncture at the Second Research Institute of the United States Navy was me. He asked, how many inches are yours? The section that uses your body is 12 inches. It depends on your body. Why do I always emphasize that Hegu is probably there? If you go down, you say that the place is Hegu then it is Hegu.

In the same size, all the textbooks have the clearest subject and the clearest drawing. You can easily understand where each acupuncture point is, Zhongfu, Yunmen, Tianfu, Xiabai, Chize, Kongzui, Lique, Jingqu, Taiyuan, Yuji, and Shaoshang all know about it.
