China's traditional Chinese medicine to

        Master of science zhu said: "ask canal that clearly, so much for its source." Any a brilliant knowledge has its theory ideological basis, understand the essence of traditional Chinese medicine is not to deny abandoned its metaphysical theory primed and empiricism. Also is not to distort chainsaw, or abandoned its metaphysical theory on the basis of scientific thought only. And should be widely understand TCM theory thought system produce of the historical cultural background, a deep understanding of guiding TCM theory system construction thought the formation of the universe philosophical connotation, an accurate grasp of the traditional Chinese medicine is a series of physiological and pathological point of view and construct the formation process.

        So have what kind of cultural background knowledge, such as we will be able to understand profoundly viscera theory, triple warmer mingmen theory, meridian theory, typhoid six-channel theory, qi-blood and body fluids theory, as well as the traditional Chinese medicine theory system of constructing life on the formation of SAP Yin and Yang five elements six gas theory ideological content? Huangdi's answer is: "husband speakers, top know astronomy, bottom know geography, the knowledge personnel."

        Traditional Chinese medicine and astronomy geography and meteorological calendar closer relationship between the law

        Astronomy is to observe and study all the time and space distribution of the cosmos, the motion state, the structure and function, and the evolution process of the origin of a basic natural science. In the Chinese traditional culture history, astronomy, the main purpose of the study is to calendar when law and discipline. Geography is the study of the earth all kinds of natural phenomenon, cultural phenomenon, and their relationships, and the relationship between the subject. In the Chinese traditional culture history, geography, the purpose of the research in addition to summarize the nature mountains and ling valley style products, but a more important task is to summarize the different geographical environment climate life all the time evolution law of the change. Personnel refer to the human life happen surviving process mechanism and social activities order law science.

        As to the prevention and control of psychosomatic disease, and protect life and health for the purpose of medical culture, need to understand the knowledge of all kinds of personnel, in the present seems to be easy to understand. But why traditional Chinese medicine with meteorological calendar law as the basic goal of the astronomical geography knowledge in medical culture the necessary position, even than personnel also important position? Traced back, because traditional Chinese medicine theory thought and clinical practice system, root YuTianWen geography and meteorological calendar legal culture of the soil.

        A medical culture knowledge system always consists of three aspects of contents: one is the etiology system, the main research pathogenic factor and its pathogenic characteristics, The second is biotics system, mainly studies the origin of life structure, physiology and pathology rule and its formation mechanism occurred; The third is clinical practice system, the main research disease prevention and control technology. Traditional Chinese medicine and the three aspects of content, investigate its practice ideological basis, all cannot leave the astronomical geography and meteorological calendar law cultural background. So we must deeply understand TCM theory system of practice, not only need to "know the personnel", more need to "top know astronomy," "bottom know geography".

        First of all, SAP Yin and Yang five elements of the doctrine of six gas ideological theory is based on practice astronomical geography and meteorological calendar law. Such as the book · copulative "said:" easy to tai chi, tai chi born two meter, two meter born four like, four like health nosy ", the "tai chi" ontology is qualitative the same spirit, "two meter" refers to tai chi SAP metaplastic heaven and earth and the Yin and Yang, "four like" refers to the Yin and Yang at the five elements, the eight trigrams philosophical ontology is heaven and earth at six gas. The book · copulative "said:" as the method of great flexibility of heaven and earth, the great at ", "easy to tai chi, tai chi born two meter, two meter born four like, four like health nosy" interpretation spirit Yin and Yang five elements six gas theories are ancient sages through the "astronomical phenomena, then look to the geography, view of birds and animals text, and the appropriate, nearly take in body, far take foreign object" astronomical geography and meteorological calendar law cognitive approach to construct the form.

        Second, viscera theory is based on the theory of the five elements at the formation of Yin and Yang. "Element asked · six day state of internal organs theory" said: "liver is extremely" the soul in its China, also in the jaw, and its filling in the bar, this is Yang of the shaoyang, pass in ChunQi. Heart person, born of the god, the place, the China also in surface, the imitation in the blood, for the male of the sun, pass in the summer air. Lung person, gas, the spirit of the place, the China in the hair, the imitation in the skin, as the Yin of the little cloudy, pass in the autumn air. Kidney is main stung, seal the hidden, fine place also, its China in the hair, the imitation in bone, as the Yin of the lunar, pass in the winter air. The spleen and stomach intestine large intestine triple warmer bladder person, the granary, the abode of the camp, also called device, can turn dross, turn to taste and into the lender, the China also in lip four white, the imitation in the muscle, this to Yin and so on, through to the rustic." "Spirit pivot bin Tibetan" said: "the person, so great, pair of Yin and Yang, and even the elements, change five section are", the position of the zang-fu organs view, and function view and the view, number like view on only station based on astronomical geography and meteorological calendar fundamentals of science of law of Yin and Yang at the five elements based on philosophy can get reasonable explanation.

        Third, the gate of life the sanjiao theory connotation essence embodied in tai chi SAP of theory. Mingmen theory of triple warmer early in the difficult the "in the will has been formed, but the book just gate of life triple warmer principles of medical science thought this scattered contracted, and forming process of less than a bit, the result makes, qin and han dynasties, the important theory system has not been understanding by later generations. Until the Ming dynasty, because of the universe due to tai chi this root view theory enlightenment, and the theory of triple warmer gate of life essence connotation to to elucidate. Such as zhang jingyue said: "the gate of life in two of the kidney, i.e., the person of the tai chi, tai chi born by two meter, and fire and water with the number, regression system. So how to be born at the beginning of the life for this." So, should have a deep understanding of the theory of triple warmer gate of life essence connotation, we first need to deeply understand the tai chi SAP theory, and should have a profound understanding of tai chi SAP theory, the astronomical geography and meteorological calendar law cultural background is unable to avoid.

        Fourth, meridian theory is clinical practice experience and Yin and Yang theory of six gas product of the combination of each other. The meridian theory is undoubtedly cognitive basis based on clinical practice experience, but the later theorized and systematized is also based on Yin and Yang at six on the basis of the theory of gas. Such as "spirit pivot · five disorderly" said: "meridians ten both to should be December. December person, divided into four. 4 person, spring and autumn winter and summer, the air each different, camp guard at your feet, Yin and Yang, and has QingZhuo incoherent, so the smooth and governance". To be fully accurate understanding of meridian theory, understanding of the theory of Yin and Yang six gas thought connotation is undoubtedly very important, and to correctly understand the thought of Yin and Yang six gas theory connotation, its astronomical geography and meteorological legislation to learn cultural background must be the same.

        Fifth, typhoid six-channel theory formation of philosophy is based on astronomical geography at the basis of Yin and Yang six gas theory. Treatise on febrile disease treated with the theory of internal and external, lift ups and downs, chills and fever false or true, spatio-temporal transfar, triple warmer viscera and difference as constructing definition respectively treated disease the basis of learning. And guidance "treatise on febrile diseases" six-channel diseases learn construct formation theory, Yin and Yang is based on the theory of gas at six. Should have a deep understanding of treatise on febrile disease treated theory make a point of the thinking logic and the expression of the ideological connotation, grasps the astronomical geography at the basis of Yin and Yang six gas theory is a basic premise, so "treatise on febrile diseases" opens with the emphasized that say: "husband know to wait for disease at vital qi, timely line plague gas of law, all according to the bucket calendar accounted for when the."

        Sixth, pathogenic factor wind continual wet dry fire at six gas is Yin and Yang close and system change of the product. Six air pathogenic have their own characteristic and atmosphere easy to attack the body muscle table, the cou justified drain opening, for the performance of the sweat out evil disease of the wind, Cold that limit meridians nasty, clinical common twin acute pain and fever aversion to cold symptoms such as no sweat; Moisture easy detention of the zang-fu organs and meridians, block qi operation, form heavy, heavy, viscous and clinical symptoms. Dry gas much hurt body fluid, easy to make the skin hole orifices viscera are dry acerbity not free of disease; Internal heat forced yi jin leaked and damage human body gas Yin, appear high fever, body tired, lack of power, less gas and so on symptoms. The high fever heat hurt much god faint and big sweat wait for disease. "Element asked · Yin and Yang should be like the big theory" said: "day at five line, with growth collection, with birth continual dry wet wind", should have a deep understanding six gas pathogenic mechanism, Yin and Yang from four angles understand it happen the formation process and its attribute is very necessary.

        Seventh, the human body blood semen operation lose cloth state at by the impact of the changes that day and night. Qi and blood semen is nutrition human acquired the life essence the foundation, and the operation of qi and blood in human semen lose cloth state by day and night at the effects of climate change. Such as "element asked · ever-green thorn inverse from theory" said: "the spring, the weather initial open, geo-gas initial drain, frozen solution melt, water menses pass, old friend gas in pulse. Summer is, the full gas overflow, into SunLao by blood, skin enrich. Long summer person, main and collateral channels is put, the overflow muscle in autumn, the weather. The beginning accept, cou justified block, the skin lead urgent. Winter is cover hidden in the flesh, and in the bone marrow, pass in five hidden." The human body at night and day qi and blood semen of the operation mechanism of change law only in accurately at night and day climate characteristics and pathogenic rule based on mechanism can understand.
