TCM academic: four channels and collaterals theory research direction

Wang hua Hubei university of Chinese medicine

Meridian theory is one of the important field of Chinese medicine acupuncture research. Nearly half a century, but results do not show a lot of research work. Practice tells us that if you don't sort out the train of thought, not clear the research object, not the right research methods, channels and collaterals theory research is hard to avoid in a blind situation, it is difficult to a breakthrough. The author provides several opinions here.

Ancient books, mining the ancient theory of channels and collaterals

Meridian theory founded in ancient China. Must study the theory of main and collateral channels, traceability, poor flow. Return to the classics, from rich ancient literature for channels and collaterals theory of traditional Chinese medicine research train of thought, it is necessary and beneficial. First take a look at is how to put forward the concept of channels and collaterals? Reasoning from classical literature or from epistemology, formerly "pulse" of the concept of channels and collaterals. From the classic medical books literature view, mawangdui silk unearthed in the 11 foot arm vein jiu jing and the Yin and Yang 11 pulse acupuncture the two books, (compared with a book in neijing, s early), is the understanding of "pulse"; From the ancient practice, whether it is original "eat birds and animals raw" of life, or in the daily work surface injury bleeding, can cause people to the understanding of the blood, and blood. The content of blood and blood are tangible, easy to observe and easy to form a consistent understanding. Observation of the bullishness and main and collateral channels is not easy, especially a bullishness and meridian theory is harder. That ancient physicians understanding meridian has experienced a long process, and its basic understanding path from the blood of tangible to intangible qi, from the vein of tangible to intangible. Here is an important way to realize the cross on this knowledge, is the transitional concept is put forward, the bridge of understanding. Between the "blood" and "gas", puts forward the concept of "natural" in between "blood" and "meridians" puts forward the concept of "meridians". Neijing "meridians, so flesh and camp" Yin and Yang is the typical expression of the know. It is the understanding of the "natural" and "meridians", to form the bullishness of and concept of channels and collaterals. The ancient way of thinking and methods of the acknowledgement is gradual, not overthrow. This is the modern need inheritance of channels and collaterals theory research.

Establish meridians and blood system

In ancient medical practice, people recognize the blood, thus realized the meridian. Treatment of blood, however, the traditional Chinese medicine theory is out of the system. Neijing has "the mansion of the pulse and blood" and "indicates gas halt the camp, make no, is for the pulse" understanding of the pulse to surprise the inner parts of constant class. Pulse is blood line channel, have spirit in the blood. Pulse of this concept is clear and correct. Problem is that if the meridians and blood have run the function of qi and blood, qi and blood is running, so the difference between different between how? Ancient understanding of "pulse" although have, but tend to "pulse" and "after", failed to create a separate blood system, failing to build more perfect veins theory system. Are two different systems of meridians and blood. Neijing "meridians", not only the understanding of the "meridians", and puts forward the concept of "the bullishness of", and focus on the understanding of the "gas". "The true qi, bullishness also" (" element asked, clutch is really evil on paper "); "Mr. Gas in the stomach, qi" (" pivot, the fever "); "Being bullishness of have to, don't miss" (" element asked, treasure life all form theory "); And so on. The bullishness of the spirit of channels and its functional activities. Acupuncture clinical emphasis gas to, gas, gas, gas, gas, gas, etc., are gas, but it does not directly say blood. Obviously, the meridians is closely related to the bullishness. "In nei jing arteries and veins, the inner parts of the blood", "heart blood" Lord, "lung toward lotaustralin" records, such as blood and blood closely linked. Can think, meridians with bullishness, blood and blood coexist. Whether from the characteristics of the meridian system structure analysis, or from the ancient and modern problems of channels and collaterals theory research, separate meridians and blood, it is necessary to construct a system of meridians and blood. This is not only the channels and collaterals theory academic problem, is also a way of channels and collaterals theory research problems.
