Hu Xiju’s view of the six meridians of discernment

Hu Xiju’s view of the six meridians of evidence identification I. What is a meridian prescription The so-called meridian prescription, as the name implies, is also a prescription of experience. It refers to the prescriptions in the Treatise on Typhoid and Miscellaneous Diseases written by Zhang Zhongjing in the Han Dynasty. 2. Zhang Zhongjing is a distinguished heir of classic prescriptions. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhang Zhongjing “diligently sought ancient training and collected many prescriptions” and wrote “Treatise on Typhoid Miscellaneous Diseases”, which creatively integrated theory, method, prescription and medicine into a single furnace and preserved the scripture prescriptions in the lost books. Therefore, later generations respected this book as “the ancestor of prescription books” and praised scripture prescriptions as “true prescriptions for diseases”. Thus, it laid the foundation for the formation and development of prescription science. The guiding theory for the use of prescriptions is evidence-based treatment. In order to use prescriptions correctly, we must master the evidence-based treatment of Chinese medicine. What is evidence-based treatment? Zhang Zhongjing’s “Treatise on Typhoid Miscellaneous Diseases” (i.e. “The Fall of Typhoid” and “The Essential Formula of the Golden Horoscope”) is a model of evidence-based treatment. The “Treatise on Typhoid Fever” is not only about treating typhoid fever, but also about using the treatment of typhoid fever to show the general method of treating all diseases with evidence. Therefore, in the “Treatise on Typhoid Fever”, there are both general rules for the identification and treatment of diseases, as well as specific methods for the implementation of the identification and treatment of diseases. The Treatise on Typhoid Fever is divided into six meridians, such as “Discerning the Pulses and Evidence of Sun Diseases and Treating the Upper Part”, “Discerning the Pulses and Evidence of Sun Diseases and Treating the Middle Part”, “Discerning the Pulses and Evidence of Sun Diseases and Treating the Lower Part “Identifying the pulse evidence of Yang Ming diseases and treating them together”, “Identifying the pulse evidence of Shao Yang diseases and treating them together”, “Identifying the pulse evidence of Tai Yin diseases and treating them together”, “Identifying the pulse evidence of Shao Yin diseases and treating them together”, “Identifying the pulse evidence of Shao Yin diseases and treating them together”. “Identify and treat the pulse and evidence of Shaoyin disease”, “Identify and treat the pulse and evidence of Conjunctive Yin disease”, etc. And the provisions of the eight syllabuses of the debate, such as the theory of Article 7 (the number of articles are based on the Song version of the treatise on typhoid. (The same below). “The disease with fever and vicious chills, issued in Yang; no heat and vicious chills, issued in Yin also ……” is the identification of Yin and Yang, Article 70 “after sweating vicious chills, deficiency; not vicious chills but heat, the real also ……” is the identification of deficiency and reality; Article 91 “typhoid fever, the doctor under the, continued to get down the clear valley more than, body pain, urgent to save the inside; after the body pain, clear stool from the regulator, urgent to save the table …… “The patient’s pulse is numbered, numbered as heat, when the elimination of grain to induce food, and vomiting, this sweating, so that Yang Qi micro, diaphragm gas deficiency, the pulse is also numbered. Number for the guest heat, can not eliminate the grain, to the stomach cold, so vomiting.” It is the identification of cold and heat. And so on. This shows that the six meridians and the eight syllabuses are a law of discriminating evidence. What are the eight syllogisms? The eight syllogisms refer to the surface, the interior, the yin, the yang, the cold, the heat, the deficiency and the reality. In fact, in the middle of the table and the lane, there is a half table and half lane, which, according to the number, should be nine syllabuses. Since the term “table and ly” is used, and the half table and half ly are included in it, it is still customary to refer to them as the eight syllabuses. Table and lid and half table and half lid: Table refers to the body surface, i.e. the external shell made up of skin, muscles, tendons and bones. If the disease is concentrated in this part of the body, it is called superficial evidence. The inner part refers to the inside of the body, i.e. the digestive tract consisting of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine and large intestine. If the disease is concentrated in this part of the body, it is called the internal sign. Half of the table and half of the inside refers to the inside of the table and outside of the inside, that is, between the two major cavities of the chest and abdomen, where the organs are located. If the disease is concentrated in this part of the body, then it is called the half-epidermal and half-liberal signs. The above three, namely, table, lid and half table and half lid, are the reactions of fixed disease locations. In other words, no matter what the disease is, the reaction of the disease location is either superficial, or internal, or half superficial and half internal. Although, sometimes both or all three appear at the same time, they will never go beyond the scope of these three. Yin and Yang: Yin means yin and Yang means yang. When the human body gets sick, it must affect the changes of the body’s functions. The first is the change of metabolic function. This change is either too much or too little than normal. If it is too much, then the body must also be correspondingly hyperactive, exuberant, excited …… too much of the signs of disease reflected, such too much of the signs of disease, known as Yang evidence. If it is not enough, then the body must also be corresponding to the decline, depression, inhibition of …… less than the signs reflected, this kind of less than the signs, then called Yin evidence. Cold and heat: cold is cold, heat is hot. If the body is reflected as a cold sign, it is called cold evidence. On the contrary, if the body is reflected as hot, it is called hot. Deficiency and reality: deficiency refers to the deficiency of the person, and reality refers to the reality of the disease. If the disease is not healed, but the person’s energy has been depleted, the disease body reflects an image of weakness, that is called deficiency. If the disease is developing, but the person’s energy is not declining, the disease reflects a full body of signs, then it is called real evidence. What are the six meridians? The six meridians refer to the three yang of sun, yangming and shaoyang, and the three yin of taiyin, shaoyin and sympathetic yin. The six meridians in the Treatise on Typhoid are called “they are illnesses”, but they are actually evidence, and they come from the eight syndromes. The three, namely superficial, internal and semi-superficial, are all reactions to the location of the disease, while the six, namely yin, yang, cold, heat, deficiency and actual, are all reactions to the condition. The Yang heat of the surface is the Sun, and the Yin cold deficiency of the surface is Shaoyin; the Yang heat of the lining is Yangming, and the Yin cold deficiency of the lining is Taiyin; the Yang heat of the half surface and half lining is Shaoyang, and the Yin cold deficiency of the half surface and half lining is Conjunctive Yin. The relationship between the six meridians and the eight syllabuses is as described above. The clinical application is: the disease is seen in the evidence, there must be a disease location, and then there are conditions, so the eight programs only abstract, while the six scriptures are with the actual type. Because of this, it is appropriate to start with the six meridians in clinical diagnosis. The Treatise on Typhoid is divided into six meridians, which is the reason. After the six meridians are identified, the surface and interior are distinguished (positioning), and yin and yang are judged (qualitative). Then, the analysis of cold, heat, deficiency and reality (further characterization) is carried out. Treatment guidelines: if the disease is on the surface, the treatment is based on sweating; if the disease is on the interior, the treatment is based on clearing, or lowering, or eliminating, or warming, or tonifying; if the disease is on the half surface and half interior, the treatment is based on harmonizing. ②Specific measures of evidence-based treatment: The specific measures of evidence-based treatment are reflected in the use of prescriptions. The prescription evidence, that is, the indications of the prescription, the indications of a certain formula, is called a certain formula evidence. In the treatise, there are Gui Zhi Tang evidence and Chai Hu Tang evidence, which are examples of the name of evidence by formula. Therefore, the identification of prescriptions is a specific application under the guidance of the general rule of identifying the six meridians and eight principles. The identification of prescriptions is also a continuation of the identification of the six meridians and eight syllabuses, which is both the concrete implementation and the basic function of the identification. There are a great number of prescriptions and evidence, all of which are found in the relevant articles of the Treatise on Typhoid Fever and the Golden Killing Formula, so if you play with them, you will get what you want.
