Huangdi Neijing is called Neijing for short. Faced with such a wonderful book, we can't help asking, whose handwriting is Huangdi Neijing? Why is it named after the Yellow Emperor? Did the Yellow Emperor do it? Or did people learn about the sensational effect of celebrities thousands of years ago, and then became the "Yellow Emperor"? We know that the "Yellow Emperor" is not an "emperor". According to legend, the Yellow Emperor's surname is Gongsun, who lives in the hill of Xuanyuan, hence the name Xuanyuan. Later, the country was established and Tude was king.
The soil is yellow, so it is called the Yellow Emperor. Yellow is the central color, and the Yellow Emperor dominates the territory of all directions. It is a symbol of a solid foundation, which is equivalent to the vitality in the human body and dominates the viscera of the body. Therefore, after the Yellow Emperor destroyed Chiyou and unified the whole country, Huangdi Neijing came out with a spirit of imperial power. The appearance of Huangdi Neijing made a considerable number of medical books gradually retire. It is in this sense that Huangdi Neijing has once again unified the medical field.
Then, what kind of classic is this Huangdi Neijing, which has been precipitated over the years? Is it inferred from our past understanding of "Jing"? For such a "Huangdi Neijing", many people think that it is about the law of life inside the human body. Some people simply think that Huangdi Neijing is a book about internal medicine combined with modern medicine. Perhaps looking at such a passage from different sides will produce some understanding of "the distance is different." If the "internal" in Huangdi Neijing is determined at a certain point, it is tantamount to the blind touching the elephant. The "inner" here is more corresponding to the "inner pursuit" of the foreign minister, the "inner" of the surface and the essence of the appearance.
From the content, the original work of Huangdi Neijing is 18. Among them, 9 volumes are called "Su Wen"; The other nine volumes have no titles. They were called nine volumes or needle sutras in the Han and Jin Dynasties, and were called Lingshu after the Tang Dynasty. Huangdi Neijing was not written by one person at a time, and its main part was formed from the Warring States to the Eastern Han Dynasty. Su Wen and Ling Shu each have 8 1 article * * * 162. Su Wen mainly discusses the changing law of nature and the relationship between man and nature. The core content of Lingshu is the theory of zang-fu organs and meridians. After the Song Dynasty, Su Wen and Ling Shu became two major parts of Huangdi Neijing.
As a medical masterpiece to study human life. The book covers physiology, pathology, diagnostics, therapeutic principles and pharmacology, and theoretically establishes the theories of Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Pulse, Zangxiang, Meridian, Etiology, Pathogenesis, Syndrome, Diagnosis, Health Preservation and Luck. However, it is such a classic with hundreds of thousands of words, and only 13 pieces are collected. It can be said that these once again confirm the fundamental characteristics of "seeking from within" in Huangdi Neijing.
How do we do this by teaching people "Vipassana"? We know that western medicine can understand the operation of internal organs through dissection, with the help of modern technologies such as X-rays, and Huangdi Neijing can grasp the inside of human body from macro to micro without opening the body, and even understand the state of qi and blood in the body, all of which depends on an image, because the celestial body is a big universe, the human body is a small universe, and there is an image between the big and small universes.
So how do people identify this "elephant"? It is a regular understanding of the internal and external relations covered by the "image" in the way of correspondence between man and nature, so as to observe our internal organs and observe our blood flow, and then advocate a pattern of smooth qi and blood, harmonious coexistence of meridians and viscera, and achieve the purpose of health and longevity. Therefore, when people don't understand it, they often think it is a kind of metaphysics.
Huangdi Neijing is also a medical monograph that integrates the methods and techniques of health preservation. It is not only guided by the principle of harmony between man and nature, but also has clear instructions on diet, behavior and even psychology. For example, "save your strength and stay away from diseases" is a good proof and the cornerstone of Chinese medicine culture. What is particularly valuable is that this ancient book vividly reproduces the fruitful results of the way of keeping in good health in the form of "representative". It not only provides a practical method for a correct understanding of life, but also provides a basis for disease prevention and treatment through introspection, understanding and intuition.
In the long history of the Chinese nation for nearly two thousand years, its leading role and contribution in medicine are indispensable, and the "Chinese-style health preservation" guided by Neijing has always benefited people.
