Introduction to the application of Gua and meridians (1)

(Dr. Chen Yi Kui) 

Introduction

Arranged the entire hexagram, then inserted the hexagram into the human body, separated from the middle of the human body, from the head to the feet, and in the hands there are the large intestine meridian, lung meridian, heart meridian, small intestine meridian, pericardial collateral meridian, and triple-burn meridian. The other half is the Ren channel, which is connected to the foot. This classification is a natural classification. I often tell people that because they have not read the Yijing, they have not read the hexagrams, they always think that the Yijing is in predicting the future, including fortune-telling, that is wrong.

The Book of Changes does not know fortune-telling. It is a kind of record. Then the record can infer the future. How can we infer the future? The weather report said that if the humidity is high, the temperature is high, and the air pressure is low, it will rain. This is the record. The same is true for the hexagram. In the whole principle, when you encounter this hexagram, you will experience something. This is a record.

In the past, people used the record of the hexagram as a symbol, a tool, and the meridian of the human body. Why would this meridian be recorded? It is a way to help people be healthy and live happily. When such steps will be completely recorded, the completion time is very long, because the word "thing" in the treatment of the human body takes a long time to be fully assembled, but in this long-term process, It is not comprehensive, but tribal. When a certain tribe finds it like this, it is only passed on to this tribe, because when it is passed out, it is finished. Why is it finished? He himself has no food to eat. This human being has walked this way since history.

There are many types of culture, spiritual culture, life culture, and survival culture. Qian Dui Li Zhen Xun Kan Gen Kun put it on the entire meridian of our body, this is the culture of survival. The survival culture is very broad. You can survive by eating a bowl of rice and noodles, you can survive by eating a sweet potato, you can survive by eating a chicken, you can survive by eating half a duck, and you can survive by eating a piece of pork belly. Which determines your social status. Therefore, the social status of the former witch doctor is second only to the emperor. He is not a nobleman. He is another sideline. He has a lofty position and enjoys quite perfect and intact, but he does not have a high status. In the end, these people have been developing and developing. After the Song Dynasty, he was called the Warlock of Jianghu. Why? Because when intellectuals join such a realm, everyone will know your symbol record, so I know what tricks you do. Then you can only use tricks. You know these theories and intellectuals. It's just a technique, not necessarily rational. Reason is not the same as technique. Some people know the technique but don't know the technique. Some people know the reason but don't know the technique. If the technique and the reason are combined, you are very tall.

By the time of the Zhou Dynasty, the true meridian theory, each tribe talked about differently, the most famous one was the Qimai, which talked about the Qijing and Eight Channels in the whole hexagram. Our use of Du, Ren, YangCiao, YinCiao, YangWei, YinWei, Chong, and Dai channels is the earliest. Between Shang and Zhou, the hexagrams were placed in this place, and the two channels of Ren and Du were the universe. Where are the parts, the pulses are on the feet, the Wei pulses are on the hands, and the chong pulses are between the hands and feet. It brought a very important theoretical message, and finally got a quite perfect thing. The Zhou Dynasty had a lot of thoughts. The thoughts used in this way are applied to martial arts thought. For boxing and Shaolin boxing, you must use the odd meridian eight channels, and Taijiquan. All boxing uses this theory of Qijing Eight Meridians.

Zhang Sanfeng used the theory of the eight meridians of the odd meridian and the theory of the unity of man and nature. What is the unity of man and nature, that is, Tai Chi. In fact, we probably all speak the other way around. It is called Taijiquan, because it is trigrams, and it uses the whole theory of trigram. Martial arts is to defend oneself. In this way of defending oneself, the whole movement of the meridians of the eight trigrams, the whole movement of the eight pulses, the law of movement should be yin and yang, left and right, front and back, up and down. This is what Zhang Sanfeng said. Tai Chi.

When we use "things” to get the two meridians, Ren Du, and twelve meridians, it is called the path of medicine. So the Book of Changes itself runs to the end, and there is also a Taoist way of heaven. Taoism is natural! However, the law of the earth, the law of the earth, the law of the sky, and the law of nature are called the law of heaven, many people are complaining that the way of heaven is not manifested. In fact, how could the way of heaven be manifested or not, because people don’t understand the way of heaven, and the way of heaven is manifested, but you don’t know, so people must understand the way of heaven. Then I Ching probably follows these three paths.

The word of martial arts is to control the position, and the way of medicine is that when you are weak, someone protects you and calls you a doctor. The way of heaven becomes your thoughts, concepts, and laws of nature. For example, Ye Mingzhu needs to receive the essence of day and night. You need to bask in the sun at noon during the day and shine the moon on it at night. If you become a god, you need to understand it. If you don't understand, then how can you apply it?

The odd meridians and eight meridians must resonate from the inside. What we call generating gong, gathering qi and exhaling and accepting, can operate in this way, so that Tai Chi can fight well. The internal organs include all the meridians, that is, the eight meridians of the odd meridians are in The resonance inside, only then can it be right with others. So why is martial arts so important in the past, because there was no law before, and people with big fists would win, or people with a lot of food in the family would win, and he could raise a lot of people to fight.

Everything has a speciality. If you use the Bagua system, you teach martial arts, you use the two meridians and the two meridians, and the twelve meridians are used to teach medicine. Gossip talks about Nantianmen. It's called Nantian Gate, so it becomes the Way of Heaven. All politics need to make a way of heaven. The Ming Dynasty did a good job of making heaven. Zhu Di built a Forbidden City. He applied the theory of heaven. Therefore, the gate of the place where the emperor lived was the Southern Gate, called the Meridian Gate. In the compass, it must be south at noon, it is Qian. The president took office on May 20th. The winter solstice is full of yang. On May 20th, there are exactly six yangs, and the six yangs will work for the sky. On that day, he will be the emperor. Because the festival is on May 21, and the day before the festival is pure Yang, all these come from the Book of Changes, the Book of Changes of Heaven. There is a coincidence, this coincidence is really very coincidental. It rained in Nanjing on the day of Chiang Kai-shek’s inauguration on May 20, 1949. After that, in December 1981, the whole country was lost.

Chinese people attach great importance to the three Taoisms. China used to be in martial arts, medicine, and heaven. Heaven chooses the day, chooses the day for marriage, the day for killing pigs, the day for thanking God, and the day for burying the dead. All of them use the theory of Heaven. On that day, you will worship God. One day to invite God, the other day to send God, all use the theory of Heavenly Dao, these are all tied to the Book of Changes. The prerequisite is to discuss the five elements of yin and yang, and use yin and yang to discuss the five elements, then the theory of yin and yang must have a subject, divided into yin and yang, and the collective name of this subject is called Tai Chi. Tai Chi itself is not abstract, it is a pronoun. To study your eyes, the eyes must be classified into categories. The eye is a tai chi, and a tai chi is divided into two yis. The place where the black eyeball is and the place where the white eyeball is. It needs a pupil, which is all relative, so a big universe is Tai Chi, and a person is a Tai Chi, which produces two rituals. The two rituals are there. The internal organs and the body are so divided.

To be healthy is to have enough knowledge. In fact, martial arts are as knowledgeable as they are now. What I want to do, I have enough knowledge to be able to defeat the opponent, how I use it, or my financial resources, this belongs to martial arts. within.
