The Symbol and Significance of Gossip

When it comes to the Book of Changes, everyone will think of Fuxi's eight diagrams. What exactly is a hexagram?

Gua, hang also. It is a phenomenon hanging in front of our eyes, so it is called hexagrams.

Divination mentioned in the Book of Changes is a phenomenon in the universe, which we can see with the naked eye. There are eight basic phenomena in the universe, and everything in the universe changes according to these eight phenomena, which is the origin of the law of gossip.

Isn't it superhuman wisdom to be able to observe the phenomena of the universe and divide them into eight categories and draw them as gossip? Therefore, gossip is the knowledge of wisdom. We saw Kongming in Beijing Opera. He wore a robe of yin and yang gossip, which showed that he was very intelligent and represented by gossip.

Draw hexagrams and hexagrams

Gua is a common phenomenon, and it is necessary to draw to record this image, so Gua is drawn, not written.

Gua is an abstract representative, which can also be said to be a symbol of pattern, and gossip is also a symbol of logic.

The composition of hexagrams is "stubbornness".

What is stubbornness? The straight line is called the positive line, and the middle partition of the straight line is also called the negative line.

Divination consists of yin and yang.

Let's look at the word "stubbornness" again, which is composed of two oblique crosses.

According to the interpretation of geophysics, the earth's magnetic field is oblique to longitude and latitude. These two oblique lines represent a form of the universe, and everything is interlaced.

And these two crisscross, just become two crosses, and Yan word is also the representative of two crosses.

Whether our ancestor Fu really painted hexagrams like this may still be a question, but the origin of China characters began with hieroglyphics, that is to say, painting phenomena is just like painting hexagrams.

How to draw hexagrams

Writing is mostly from top to bottom, while drawing hexagrams is from bottom to top, that is, drawing hexagrams is from the inside out. This is a basic common sense of drawing hexagrams.

Although you can draw hexagrams from top to bottom and from outside to inside, the original method of drawing hexagrams is from inside to outside and from bottom to top, which has its important reasons.

We live on the earth, and the function of life on the earth is produced by the outward radiation of the center of the earth.

Taking people as a unit, the individual's behavioral ability is also from the inside out.

This is the basic idea of the Book of Changes, which is why hexagrams are drawn from the inside out and from the bottom up.

The following picture shows Fuxi's orientation map of innate gossip, but this eight diagrams map did not spread before the Tang Dynasty, and only appeared after the Tang and Song Dynasties. Whether Fu painted it or not, we won't verify it, so we won't discuss it here. Now let's look at the significance of innate gossip's painting.

Deviate from divination-divination is a point in a circle, representing the sun.

Kangua-it's cloudy up and down,

The picture in the middle symbolizes light and represents the moon.

Gong hexagrams-broken in front and below, representing the wind.

Divination-yang is below, broken on it,

Represents vibration, represents thunder.

Gengxu-there are prominent mountains on the ground, representing mountains.

Dugua-The gap above indicates lakes and oceans.

You may find it difficult to understand why they represent the sun, the moon, heaven and earth, mountains and rivers. However, we should know that the hexagrams originally drawn are not as straight and neat as those drawn today. The original painting method may be that Yin is just two points, and the so-called Yang is just a whole piece. Its shape is not necessarily neat, and the hexagrams are three-dimensional.

Therefore, the shape of divination is just a circle with a black dot in the middle to represent the sun. Other hexagrams also evolved in this way.

Phenomena represented by rumors

After seeing innate gossip, we clearly understand that gossip describes all the phenomena in the universe.

The eight phenomena in this universe are heaven, earth, sun, moon, wind, thunder, mountains and sunshine.

Apart from these eight phenomena, what else will there be? Gossip is really inducing.

Confucius said in the Book of Changes, Zhuan Zhuan:

"The orientation of heaven and earth", viewed from any direction, is the sky.

"Much thunder and little rain", atmospheric friction is lightning, and the shock wave of lightning becomes airflow.

The principle of "ventilation between mountains and rivers" is exactly the same as the application of acupuncture, which will be mentioned later.

"Fire and water don't shoot each other." If there is more fire, the water will dry up, and if there is more water, the fire will go out. It is extremely difficult to achieve a balance.

As for the body parts represented by gossip, this is the concept of Dandao School:

Dry head 1

Kun-belly eight

Off-eye 3

Kaner 6

Earthquake-Dantian (Life Energy) 4

Smoked nose 5

Seventh generation

Buckle 2

The problem of gossip "number"

We saw the figures on the gossip (Figure 3), which is really interesting. One, two, three, four turn left, five, six, seven, eight turn right.

This is the basic principle of the Book of Changes: "Turn left in Heaven and turn right in Tunnel."

If we look at these figures again, they all add up to nine, so although there is no nine in innate gossip, there is indeed nine in it, which is nine of them!

Western calculus is said to have been invented under the inspiration of Yi.

The concept of "number" in the Book of Changes holds that there is only one number between heaven and earth, and that is "one". This is a mathematical concept in the Book of Changes. This so-called mathematics is not necessarily the mathematical meaning today, so don't confuse it.

This "one", plus one equals two, plus one equals three, up to nine, plus one.

This way of thinking is inductive logic, which is completely different from western analytical logic.

Among these numbers, 13579, from nine to nine, is the highest number, nine represents Yang, and the number of Yang's energy to nine is the peak. 24680 is a negative number, and six is in the middle, representing yin.

Orientation, climate and medical care in innate gossip

Right, it is located in the southeast on the gossip, so it can be said that there is more water in the southeast. At present, Taiwan Province Province is in the position of divination in innate gossip, which is in the ocean.

If the hexagrams are located in the southwest and the hexagrams are located in the wind, the southwest is a windy area. The wind is strongest in Xiaguan, Yunnan. When a truck passes by, you can turn off the throttle and let the wind blow. You can imagine the wind. Some people say: Xun is the wind.

Due to the different climate and geographical environment, medical care is also different. For example, there are many typhoid fever in the north, so Treatise on Febrile Diseases can only be applied to the south; Taiwan Province belongs to the marine subtropical climate, and its medication method is completely different from that of mainland China. Therefore, it is absolutely incorrect to apply the same medicine and the same method to all parts of the world, ignoring climate factors.

Speaking of which, I remembered something 20 years ago. A friend got jaundice and was treated by another Chinese medicine friend. In his prescription, he used six yuan of ephedra. I was shocked at that time, because I was very cautious in using ephedra in mainland China and never dared to use so much. The patient took one or two doses of medicine and it didn't work. This Chinese medicine friend added one or two ephedra. I really couldn't help asking him at that time. He explained that the quality of medicines in Taiwan Province Province was poor and the ingredients were problematic. Coupled with climate factors, one or two is equal to two yuan on the mainland. According to his prescription, I'm afraid it will get better soon, which proves that Chinese medicine attaches the most importance to climate.

People in Taoist concept

As we said before, gossip represents eight phenomena in the universe, and people will suspect that we humans in the universe are not among them!

In this respect, the Taoist concept is the most interesting. They think that the earth is a living body, and we humans are just parasites on the earth.

More like parasites. In fact, Taoism calls human beings "bugs", that is, naked bugs, born naked and naked.

Can we say that the metaphor of home is nonsense? Try to look at the population problem on the earth! The population is growing. According to Taoist inference, the population will still increase. It is said that once worms are born in apples, they will grow bigger and bigger until the apples are completely eroded and eaten. At that time, insects will be finished.

They have been developing so-called science since the unfortunate growth of insects-humans on the earth. Digging mines and drilling oil at the bottom of the sea, material civilization became more and more developed and destructive, until we worms destroyed the earth.

Taoist study of the universe.

When astronauts landed on the moon, American friends said that the sovereignty of the moon should belong to the United States, but I told a joke that the sovereignty of the moon should belong to China, because China's "Chang 'e" had already flown to the moon thousands of years ago. Although this is a joke, it does have some practical significance, because our Taoism has long been studying the moon and the sun. There is already a Taoist book named "The Sun and Moon Running Phosphorus" in the Taoist collection, and it is envisaged to land on the moon and the sun.

In Taoist literature "Taoist Collection", besides the study of the moon, there is an extremely complicated picture called "The True Map of Five Mountains", which draws the underground of five mountains with China as the center, and thinks that all underground tunnels are connected. According to Taoist legend, there is a cave under the Huangdi Mausoleum in Shaanxi Province. It walked along the tunnel in the cave and came out three months later.

Chinese mainland is listed as viscera in Taoist scriptures, while the ground lung is in Shaanxi.

In predecessors' notes, it is recorded that there is a cave at the northern foot of Tianshan Mountain. Every time I go to Tomb-Sweeping Day, this cave gives off the atmosphere, saying it is the breath of the earth. When it vented, people in the desert smelled its voice, and people and animals had already fled, so as not to be blown away by the air. After 24 hours, I can hear the sound of inhaling again. Ji Xiaolan's notes mentioned that he had been to this place.

In the desert, lakes can move by themselves under the influence of the atmosphere. They moved to another place like ice cubes and then stopped. Some Mongolian friends also said that they had experienced such a scene.

What are these phenomena? They are Shanze ventilation in the Book of Changes.

Shanze ventilation and qi regulation

Taoism regards heaven and earth as a big universe and the human body on the earth as a small universe.

The first thing that Taoism pays attention to is the qi of the human body when practicing Dan Dao.

In the eyes of Taoism, the earth is not only alive, but also "qi", which is why the principle of "mountain wind" in the Book of Changes has always been applied by Taoism.

What is qi? "Qi" in Taoism is a very mysterious problem, and so is "Qi" in TCM.

The root of gossip is mountain. If the root is missing, it is divination, that is, the ocean, which means that the mountain is the sea and the sea is the mountain.

The bottom of this mountain is connected with the sea floor.

But why does Yamazawa need ventilation?

The military science of Taoism is a secret, but it is not handed down. Now speaking of "mountain wind", let's first look at the military science of ancient Taoism on the Great Wall.

In the society of China thousands of years ago, leading thousands of cadres' troops out of the fortress, there was neither current communication equipment nor supplies, and the problem of water source alone was a great event.

However, Taoism has a way. When marching, carry a large number of Peng Ai to the northwest plateau or desert. First, it dug a pit about ten feet square and burned Peng Ai in the pit. At this time, pay attention to the surroundings in the distance, and you will soon see smoke coming out from other places. If you dig a well from a place with steam, you will get water.

This is the application and proof of "Yamazawa ventilation".

But why use Cao Wen?

According to the research of Taoism and pharmacology in China, wormwood is ventilated, which should be left to plant experts and scientists for further study.

However, it is this kind of wormwood that is used for acupuncture.

The function of hexagrams and Taoist philosophy

We have briefly talked about the relationship between congenital divination and China medicine. Next time, we can introduce the divination of King Wen the day after tomorrow. After the Tang and Song Dynasties, there has been a clear distinction between the aspect and the use of Yi.

Congenital hexagrams represent noumenon and are the laws of the universe.

The acquired divination represents application, which is applied to everything according to the laws of the universe.

In the basic concept of the Book of Changes, there is a truth that yin and yang rise and fall, that is, the cathode is positive and the anode is negative.

From this perspective, China's culture is basically based on Yi-ology. For example, taking the Book of Changes as an example, there is a saying that "on the world's major events, long-term separation must be combined, and long-term integration must be combined", which is based on the principle of the rise and fall of Yin and Yang.

Cathode is positive and anode is negative, which is the basic philosophy of Taoism.

chapter two

Last time we talked about innate gossip in Fuxi, now we will introduce Wang Wen's gossip the day after tomorrow.

Because of the time, I can only briefly introduce the Book of Changes. Please pay attention to and remember the "number" of divination the day after tomorrow, because it is closely related to acupuncture.

We watched the acquired divination and found that its "image" and "number" are different from the innate divination.

When a number is added to the opposite number, it becomes ten, that is, when combined with the opposite number, it becomes ten. This reminds us that the magical meaning of Buddhism, if applied to medicine, seems to show the importance of maintaining balance, and maintaining balance is health.

China's teaching method, often the boring academic theory, into rhyming poems, in order to recite, the day after tomorrow divination is:

Count the hurdles, count the Kun, and count the points of three earthquakes and four auspicious.

Five posts are sent to the official, six posts are made, seven posts are paid for eight posts, and nine posts are left.

Easy function

The Book of Changes seems too difficult to understand. After reading many books that are easy to learn, we are all confused.

Now as long as we pay attention to the gossip of nature and nurture, we can get a general outline.

Innate gossip talked about the physical laws when the universe did not form a material world.

The gossip about the day after tomorrow is about the physical laws of the solar system after the formation of the material world.

Nature is talking about the body.

The day after tomorrow is about use.

The function of the Book of Changes was developed after the Han, Wei, Southern and Northern Dynasties. In Taoist philosophy, the cathode is positive and the anode is negative, which is also the reason for mutual utilization.

Knowing the different functions, we will naturally understand that many different gossip in geomantic numerology is just to move the "image" of congenital divination to the "number" of acquired divination to become another gossip, or to move the "number" of congenital divination to the "image" of acquired divination to become another gossip. They moved around for different reasons, but because the principle was not clear, the knowledge of the Book of Changes became more mysterious and difficult to understand.

Sancun and Lai Zhide

Confucius said, "You get what you play" refers to the method of learning the Book of Changes.

To learn the Book of Changes, you have to play hexagrams repeatedly to gain experience. Some people who have studied the Book of Changes all their lives may not reach the highest level. This is an interesting and all-encompassing knowledge. I advise you not to study at night, because you will find that the east is white if you are not careful.

Why are so many books easy to learn, but so difficult to understand? It was originally related to the scholars of Sancun.

Admirably, these three rural scholars spent their whole lives studying Yi-ology in the ancient environment. Unfortunately, they are ignorant and haven't seen what their predecessors have learned for a long time. They are still immersed in their research alone.

A famous master of Yi-ology in Ming Dynasty lived in seclusion for 20 years, specializing in Yi-ology. It is true that Lion is very famous, and he does have valuable insights and play. But he wasted a lot of time because he didn't read the sage's book about Yi. These are admirable and regrettable enough for us to learn from.

The use of acquired divination

"The emperor frightened, close to ji, meet and leave, serve it. He said that he opposed the dollar, and he struggled and worked hard.

Talk about it, and get into the words. "

This is in Shuogua Zhuan, according to which Han Yi explained the laws of the material world in the order of numbers. It is said that it was written by Confucius. This law of order is of course expressed by the divination of the day after tomorrow. It should also be said that the divination of the day after tomorrow is drawn according to this law.

These words of Confucius can be simply explained as follows:

The sun rises in the east, and the earthquake is in the east, not in spring, but at the beginning of a year and a day (the emperor was shocked).

It soon showed its ability to influence everything. Everything grows, and the manure is handled in the southeast, between spring and summer, and in the morning (almost).

From the south, the sun is right in the middle, and it is summer, and everything is fully developed (see each other).

At sunset, or in late summer and early autumn, vigorous elephants in nature have been collected, and Kun is the earth.

At sunset, it is the Mid-Autumn Festival of the year. It's already cloudy at this time, and everything is beginning to enter a cloudy state.

In the evening, also in late autumn, Yang Neng's divination entered the territory of Yin, and Yin and Yang fought.

Midnight, Meng Dong is in the middle of the night, and everything returns. Extremely yin realm, one yang is in it. This is a new turning point. The hurdles are full.

When the night went to winter, everything in the universe began to sprout secretly, and the new yang energy began to rise again.

If this law is used to explain everything in the world, there is nothing that does not conform to this law. Therefore, it is absolutely accurate and scientific to infer the size of the world according to Yi Gua.

Three Essentials of Yi

I ching has three basic points:

1. Change: The cosmic things described in Yi are bound to change, that is, everything in the world is unchanged. But this change is gradual, not sudden, and it is easy to deny the sudden change, because all the sudden changes, in fact, internal changes have long existed.

Second, it is not easy: in all inevitable changes, there is an absolutely unchangeable ontology, which is metaphysical truth. In western religions, it is called God, in Buddhism, it is called Buddha, in Laozi, it is called Tao, but it is nameless, and some people call it "a mass of darkness". No matter what its name is, it represents an unchanging ontology.

3. Simplicity: Yi is a kind of induction, which boils down the phenomena and personnel in the universe to a very simple and inevitable principle called simplicity.

Sixty-four hexagrams and six hexagrams

In the innate Fuxi gossip, three hexagrams are one hexagram, but later, two hexagrams are added together, and six hexagrams become one hexagram.

Of the six hexagrams, the bottom three hexagrams are inner hexagrams, also called lower hexagrams, and the top three hexagrams are outer hexagrams, also called upper hexagrams.

Six is a strange number. I think the sixth place is the highest. It is said that in terms of natural science figures, six is also considered as the apex.

The three hexagrams seen in the gossip are eight directions, and now they are combined into two hexagrams. As a result, each hexagram has eight hexagrams.

So the total number of gossip is sixty-four hexagrams.

Now let's take a look at the melon and its changes:

Work for the sky.

According to Yi's inevitable principle, the wind changes inward from the bottom, as if there is a strong wind in the universe, that is, it becomes (the queen).

Dolphin in Tianshan Mountain, born in Yin, mixed with Yang before retreating.

Without heaven and earth, after the formation of heaven and earth, there are many things in the world, with or without them, which means that there will be people in heaven and earth, and there will be no peace from now on. It can also be called Yi's humor, and the next one will become:

From the inside out, the concept of terroir is considerable, and it can also be said that it is the truth of holding the surplus and protecting Thailand, and once again it becomes:

Mountain peeling, not protecting Thailand is peeling, like a human body, not caring is peeling.

This is the seventh change, which is an inversion of the original divination. It's called wandering divination, which means that although people are not dead, they wander among the ruins and visit the cemetery.

This is the eighth change. The whole inner divination is reductive, also called reductive divination. However, the return of this soul symbolizes the continuation of life, but it is not the recovery of one's own life, but the continuation of future generations. So nothing in the world can be absolutely restored. The so-called reduction is just a change, similar to the previous form.

What I mentioned above is the Gangua itself and its changes. One * * * is gossip, and other hexagrams, such as Kangua, Gengua, Zhengua, Haigua, Ligua, Kungua and Dugua, all have their own changes, and their laws are the same. * * * is sixty-four hexagrams, so I won't explain them one by one here. You can refer to any book of the Book of Changes for study.

Complex changes

Can it be said that the sixty-four hexagrams clearly show all the changes in the world?

Don't! Things are still very complicated!

Let's take divination as an example. Its first change was the queen's divination.

A sudden gust of wind (Queen).

Summary: If the map of the six-pointed star (queen) is reversed 180 degrees, it becomes:

Ai Zetian, this is the opposite divination of (Empress) divination, also called comprehensive divination.

Wrong: If you change the five yang and one yin of the Six Empresses into five yin and one yang, it will become:

My complex, this is the opposite of the six-pointed star (queen).

When people are sick, they are stripping hexagrams, and the opposite of stripping hexagrams is to restore hexagrams. Isn't it just the recovery of the sick body?

Among the sixty-four hexagrams, there are eight diagrams without comprehensive hexagrams. These eight hexagrams are: Gan, Kun, Kan, Li, Da, Xiao, Yi and Zhong Fu.

Gan, Kun, Kan and Li in gossip are common phenomena in the world, the sun and the moon. From any point of view, the sky is definitely the sky, the earth is definitely the earth, and the sun and the moon are still the sun and the moon.

The last four hexagrams, big ratio, small ratio, Yi and Zhongfu, all belong to personnel, but they have the same nature, so there is no comprehensive hexagrams.

The wrong hexagrams and comprehensive hexagrams we see belong to external changes. Now let's look at the complex changes inside things!

You can also see the meaning from the image of the font.

Take the queen as an example, the top and bottom are the same, as long as the four inside are mutual.

As shown in the figure:

Hey ——————————→ Hey.

The complexity of hexagrams is dry hexagrams, which seems to be exactly the same as things and people in the world.

Dialectics and calculus

This paper analyzes the formation and evolution of the Eight Diagrams, and then studies its intricate hexagrams. It can be clearly seen that it is subtle, reasonable and objective to observe personnel from the standpoint of the Eight Diagrams in the Book of Changes. If we only look at the problem from one angle, mistakes are absolutely inevitable. The basic spirit of Confucius' doctrine of loyalty and forgiveness is that everything should be considered from the standpoint of others because of different views.

The most interesting thing is that someone found the Book of Changes, a truth about things, and said, "It's like western dialectics!" " !

Hearing this opinion, it not only reminds me of a story: a man knew a child, and one day he suddenly met the grandfather of the child, so he smiled and said, you see how the grandfather looks like a child!

This is really interesting. The Book of Changes has a history of 5,000 years, and dialectics is only the product of18th century. I don't know if it's the fault of our culture or if some people in China walk backwards.

Don't bemoan our descendants of Fuxi Huangdi! Look at the inventor of western calculus!

He studied the Book of Changes and got a lot of enlightenment from the law of "number" in the Book of Changes. The sixty-four hexagrams in the Book of Changes have square and round diagrams, but he made a mistake about Fiona Fang's diagram. Although he invented calculus, he was very sorry that he was not from China and didn't study the Yi-ology thoroughly. Otherwise, there may be more achievements.

Actually, I'm happy for him. I'm glad that this gentleman is not from China, because if he were from China, he would have learned the Book of Changes and wouldn't have invented calculus. At most, he will be a diviner.

Because people who study the book of changes only pay attention to the part of "reason" and don't pay attention to "number" What a pity!

Map and climate of Fiona Fang

Look at the square map of gossip (see next page). From the dry divination in the lower right, a diagonal line to the Kun divination in the upper left corner, a * * is the dry divination, exchange, fire, thunder, wind, water, gen and Kun in the eight diagrams.

Their numbers are one, two, three, four, five, six, seven and eight.

From this picture, we can see the number of each of the 64 hexagrams. A square graph represents space and a circle graph represents time.

So how are the pie charts arranged?

Starting from Kun hexagrams, starting from the top row of the square diagram, the humble hexagrams on the left side of the second row are connected with the incense sticks on the right side of the first row, and so on, forming a circular diagram.

Draw a line from dried melon to Kungua on the center of the circle, which seems to be the position of the celestial galaxy, and this circle not only represents time, but also 24 solar terms and 12 months in a year, all of which are caused by.

In the circle chart, besides Li Kan, it represents the sky, the earth, the sun and the moon, not the solar terms, and there are more than 60 hexagrams.

Each hexagram represents-six days, * * * 360 days, that is, one year.

Five days is the first class, the third class is a breath, and the sixth class is a section.

So there are twelve months, twenty-four solar terms and seventy-two cycles in a year.

This is based on the inevitable law of the solar system, using hexagrams to explain the climate change and predict how the weather will be produced! Meteorological changes have a profound impact on everything of human beings, and the relationship between medicine and meteorology is the closest.

Basic books of traditional Chinese medicine and others

Pay attention, we can find that after today's earthquake, our spirit is particularly good, which is the influence of meteorological changes and also shows the relationship between meteorological changes and medicine. Of course, sometimes after the earthquake, the influence of the weather makes our spirit particularly bad.

Now let's talk about three books first, so as to understand the history of Chinese medicine. In fact, these three books are the history of medical development in China.

1. Neijing: It includes two parts: coffin and Su Wen, which is the original medical theory, among which acupuncture is the most important. However, Neijing is not only a book of medical theory, but also a knowledge of self-cultivation. Speaking of it, it should be a must-read with equal emphasis on the four books. The result is confined to the scope of medicine, which is really incorrect.

2. Difficult classics: This is a book of regulating qi, focusing on the study of qi pulse, just like the principle of qi in Feng Shui. Besides looking at people's heads and telling the situation, we should also pay attention.

Treatise on Febrile Diseases: This is a book of practical medicine. In my opinion, it should be regarded as a book on southern medicine, because only the south has many cold diseases. Therefore, whether it is medical science or practical medicine, we should consider the relationship between man and the universe and the relationship between meteorology and man everywhere. If this treatise on febrile diseases is applied to the northwest, some medical methods will be problematic.

So what should be done to cure the diseases of northerners?

It is more appropriate to pay attention to the articles on febrile diseases in the north.

In the Tang Dynasty, Sun Simiao's medicine was pure Taoist medicine, and its two books "Thousand Golden Formulas" and "Thousand Golden Wings" should also be included in the compulsory reading of Chinese people, which involved the design of gardens and the cultivation of herbs, all of which were related to health care and medicine. It integrates medicine into daily life, which is really a wonderful work.

Lovely witch doctor

Traditional Chinese medicine originated from various families, including the application of magic.

When people hear the word charm, they will inevitably think of ghosts and gods and superstitious witch doctors.

In fact, the application of spells is indeed the work of witch doctors. Witch doctors are not only not terrible, but also the originator of psychotherapy!

In the ancient clan society, all doctors were surnamed Wu, which was the surname of a clan. The Wu family has produced a good doctor, and the witch doctor is an honorific title.

Famous doctor Wu, using magic to treat patients, is an authentic psychotherapy. Spelling spells is to use patients' confidence in doctors and patients' confidence in themselves to achieve the purpose of treating diseases.

Isn't the witch doctor amazing and cute? Where are the scary witches in western comics?

China's medical science, after Zhu Youke, emphasized: one medicine with two needles, three moxibustion and four soups. Speaking of taking medicine, it is the fourth step of medical treatment.

Taoist life theory

Speaking of Taoist medicine, how did Taoist medicine evolve? Let's look at the life change map of Taoism first!

Liver qi is the energy of yang and the beginning of life. The inner divination of the melon is pregnancy, and the outer divination represents from birth to sixteen (female fourteen). As can be seen from this table, men are sixteen, and women enter the life after they are fourteen.

According to Neijing, women began to live the day after tomorrow at the age of 27, that is, 14.

Since then, male 17 years old and female 15 years old, they have entered the queen (queen), and every eight years (female seven years), the yang has turned to another one, which is a dolphin, whether it is to watch it or to peel it.

At the end of divination, the man was fifty-six years old and the woman was forty-nine. At that time, men and women, although alive, were in a state of wandering souls. According to western physiology, it was menopause. According to Taoist theory, life is on the verge of the last sun be the spirit.

For example, when the sun is still burning, it can be said that while there are still some stars left in the fire in the furnace, you can practice hard while it is early, and you can turn around. Please look at another picture of Taoism, the sublimation of monasticism!

The practice of Taoism is to mix drugs according to the natural laws of the universe.

In Neijing and Huang Ting Neijing, three kinds of drugs are mentioned, which are the essence. Is to change your body with your own strength and get angry when you come back.

Continue to work hard, become two yang and four yin, then progress to three yang and three yin, and finally achieve dry divination, return to the body of pure yang, and become the original state of youth.

If you have reached the age of Kun gua, isn't it all over? Absolutely not. However, we really need to redouble our efforts to restore the situation of "one yang returning"

Ridiculous, picking yin and nourishing yang

There is a saying in the Taoist theory of self-cultivation: take the ridge and fill it.

The ridge is full from the middle, the middle of the ridge is yang, and the middle is yin.

If you change the yin in the hexagram to the yang in the hexagram, it will become that all three hexagrams are yang. The purpose of monasticism is to reverse the origin and return to the original divination, thus forming the saying of taking the ridge to fill the vacancy.

I'm afraid some people with a little knowledge regard the ridge as yin and the ridge as yang, so they fill the ridge, which is interpreted as taking yin to replenish yang.

Judging from the hexagrams in the Book of Changes,
