Differences between Zhouyi and the Fifth Edition of Traditional Chinese Medicine

The Book of Changes is the head of the group classics, and the Book of Changes has three ancient names. "One is Lianshan, the other is ghost hiding, and the third is Zhouyi. Some people call Lianshan the first divination. The first divination in Gui Zang is Kun, and the Book of Changes is based on the three talents of heaven and earth, so Zhou is suitable for everything. The Book of Changes has profound thoughts and scientific classification framework, and later developed into an important work for a hundred schools of thought to contend.

The Book of Changes is simple, extensive and profound, as simple as the interaction of yin and yang, far from being poor, extensive and profound, endless, and one yin and one anode is healthy. Yin and Yang give birth to two instruments, two instruments give birth to four images, and four images give birth to eight diagrams, all of which are science and technology, medicine, personnel, society, family, art of war, divination, health preservation, Chinese medicine and calligraphy.

Mountain, medicine, physiognomy, life and divination are called the five techniques of metaphysics. Yi-ology occupies an extremely important position in the cultural history of China and has a far-reaching influence on the development of traditional Chinese medicine. The famous doctors in China attach great importance to the study of Yi-ology. Sun Simiao said in the Tang Dynasty that "I don't know the easy, so I don't cure too much". Zhang Jingyue in the Ming Dynasty put forward more systematically: "The way of heaven and earth, with Yin and Yang to support a hundred skeletons. Easy, easy, with the wonderful movement of yin and yang; Doctor, meaning is also in harmony with yin and yang. Although Yin and Yang have been recorded in Neijing, the changes are not much different from those in Zhouyi.

It's easy to learn medicine, and it's one-sided. People who are not easy to study medicine are often narrow-minded and unable to grasp the essence and law of human life from the avenue of the universe; Those who only know how to do it is easy, but don't know how to do it, are easy to be satisfied with empty talk about metaphysics and can't solve specific problems. Because they can't have physical evidence, they don't have a thorough and comprehensive grasp of Tiandi Avenue. Only by unifying the two can we learn from each other.

I ching-yun said, "A thousand things can be done, and a great deal will unify the sky. Everything is born, but it is a matter of passing the sky. " Neijing also said: "Space Gallery, Zhao Ji Huayuan, Wan Liaosheng, five innings have passed, what a coincidence, president Kun Yuan." The Book of Changes said, "One yin and one yang are the Tao, and the husband is easy to accomplish, and the world is prosperous. His name is father and Kun is mother. " Neijing also said: "Yin and Yang are the way of heaven and earth, the discipline of all things, the changing parents, the foundation of life and death, and the home of all gods."

Deciphering the magical Yi Tu along the trunk of Yi Dao will eventually arouse great interest in the wonderful relationship between Yi-ology and TCM. Yi-ology and traditional Chinese medicine are so different, but the internal relationship between them is wonderfully presented to people. Doctors can communicate easily.

In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the human body also follows the theory of yin-yang and five elements. That is, the five philosophical categories of wood, fire, earth, gold and water are used to summarize the attributes of different things in the objective world, and the five-element dynamic model is used to explain the laws of mutual connection and transformation between things. In the theory of five elements, five internal organs are matched with five elements, namely, liver and wood, heart and fire, spleen and soil, gold and lung, water and kidney.

The five internal organs and elements should be relatively balanced, stable and harmonious. If the five internal organs and five elements are out of balance, it will also lead to the occurrence of diseases, which provides sufficient basis for inferring the improvement and malignant transformation of diseases and treatment methods. Traditional Chinese medicine mainly uses the theory of five elements to explain the functional relationship between five zang-organs and the mechanism of diseases when zang-fu organs are out of balance, and also to guide the treatment of zang-fu organs diseases.

In traditional Chinese medicine, the five elements reflect the relationship between the five systems of the human body and these five attributes. The five symbols of wood, fire, earth, gold and water respectively represent the five systems led by liver, heart, spleen, lung and kidney. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) does not study the theory of how microscopic viruses and bacteria act on the human body, but the relationship between various systems of the whole human body. Through TCM, massage, acupuncture and even psychological effects, the balance between various systems is adjusted to maintain good health.

Through the observation of contradictory phenomena, people gradually raise the concept of contradiction to the category of yin and yang, and explain the movement and change of things with the rise and fall of yin and yang. Yin-yang theory holds that the world is material, and matter is made up of Yin and Yang. Everything that is energetic, outgoing, warm and bright belongs to Yang. Relatively static, defensive, healthy, cold and gloomy are all cloudy.

Therefore, there are two opposites, Yin and Yang. Under the influence of the ups and downs of Yin and Yang and the unity of opposites, they breed, restrict and change each other and form everything in the world. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) uses the concept of the unity of opposites of Yin and Yang to explain the complex relationship between up and down, inside and outside the human body, and the external relationship between human life and nature and society. The relative balance of the unity of opposites of Yin and Yang is the basis for maintaining and ensuring normal human activities. The imbalance and destruction of the unity of opposites of Yin and Yang will lead to the occurrence of human diseases and affect the normal activities of life.

The ancients once said that "doctors don't leave home", and there are more advanced Chinese medicine. You can analyze a person's health just by listening to his name. It can be said that a good TCM doctor is also a good Yi-ology scholar and numerologist.
