The theory of five zang-organs chapter 11

original text

The Yellow Emperor asked: I heard that alchemists regard brain marrow as dirty, stomach as dirty, or fu organs. On the contrary, if I dare to ask, I call myself right, I don't know the way, and I am willing to listen. Zeebe said to her: "Brain, bone, pulse, gallbladder and daughter cells are all born in qi, hidden in yin and shaped like the ground, so they are hidden without diarrhea, so they are called the house of wonders." ".The husband's stomach, large intestine, small intestine and triple energizer bladder were all born in the weather and were not hidden because of the weather. This is the so-called family line, because the five internal organs are turbid, and it is impossible to keep diarrhea patients for a long time. The gate of hell is also an envoy of five zang-organs, and Shui Gu can't hide for long. The so-called five internal organs store essence without diarrhea, so they are full but not real. Those with six internal organs pass on chemicals without hiding them, so they cannot be full. Therefore, when Shui Gu enters, the stomach is solid and the intestine is weak; The intestine is firm and the stomach is weak when eating. So it is really dissatisfied, but it is full of unreality. The emperor said: Why is the airport the sole master of the five internal organs? Qi Bo said: The stomach is the sea of water valley, the source of the internal organs. Five flavors are stored in the stomach to nourish the five internal organs, and the outlet is also too cloudy. So the smell of the five internal organs comes from the stomach and changes to the vent. Therefore, the five qi enter the nose and hide in the heart and lungs, and the heart and lungs are sick and the nose is unfavorable. Anyone who treats a disease must observe its potential conditions, suit its pulse and observe its will, not its disease. People who are confined to ghosts and gods should not be virtuous. Those who hate the needle stone should not talk glibly. If the disease is not treated, it will be cured, and it will be useless.

The Yellow Emperor asked, I heard from some people who know medical prescriptions that some people treat brain marrow as dirty, some people treat intestines and stomach as dirty, and some people treat intestines and stomach as viscera. Their views are completely opposite, but they all think they are right. I don't know which of them is right I hope you can talk about this problem. Qi Bo replied that the brain, marrow, bone, pulse, gallbladder and uterus are all born of the earth's qi, and their functional characteristics are to store yin and essence, just like everything on the earth, so they should be stored without diarrhea, which is called "Qi Fu Heng Zi". Stomach, large intestine, small intestine, triple energizer and bladder, these five organs are all born of natural qi, and their functional characteristics are constantly running like celestial bodies, so they only transport diarrhea without storing it. They pass on the essence of Shui Gu to the five internal organs, which is the so-called "transmission viscera". Food and drinks can't stay here for a long time. After the change, the essence is absorbed, the dregs are excreted, and the anus is also used by the five internal organs, so that eating and drinking can not be hidden here for a long time. The five internal organs we are talking about are characterized by storing essence without diarrhea, so they only contain essence, not water. The function of the six zang-fu organs we are talking about is to transmit changing things, not to store them, so they can only enrich Shui Gu, not its essence. This is because after food and drink enter the stomach from the mouth, the stomach is full and the intestine is empty; When the diet changes from stomach to intestine, the stomach is empty and the intestine is full, so the six fu-organs are "solid but not solid" and the five internal organs are "full but not solid". The yellow emperor asked, why can you feel the pulse inch mouth to diagnose the diseases of the whole body viscera? Qi Bo replied that the stomach is the intersection of human body and Shui Gu, and it is also the biggest source of internal organs. The five flavors of diet are hidden in the stomach, producing subtle substances and nourishing the five internal organs. Cunkou belongs to the Taiyin lung meridian, and the Taiyin lung meridian of the hand starts from the stomach. Because of this, the essence of the five internal organs comes from the stomach and is manifested in the mouth. Smell, smell, smell and rot enter the nose and hide in the heart and lungs. If the heart and lungs are sick, the nostrils are useless. When treating diseases, we must ask patients about their defecation, identify the changes of pulse, and observe patients' mental consciousness and other diseases. People who cling to ghosts and gods cannot tell him profound medical theories; People who are afraid of acupuncture and needles are afraid to discuss the skills of treating diseases with him; Patients who are unwilling to receive treatment do not need forced treatment, and forced treatment will not achieve good therapeutic results.
