The skill of Huang Qi, also known as Huang Qi's medical skill, comes from Huangdi Neijing.
definition
Refers to Xuanyuan Huangdi, and Qi is his courtier Qi Bo. According to legend, the Yellow Emperor often sat down with courtiers such as Qi Bo and Lei Gong to discuss medical problems, and asked questions and answers about the causes, diagnosis and treatment of diseases, many of which were recorded in the medical book Huangdi Neijing.
Later generations, out of respect for Huangdi and Qi Baishi, called Huang Qi's medical skills TCM, and thought Huangdi Neijing was the origin of TCM theory and the most authoritative classic of TCM. To this day, anyone engaged in the work of traditional Chinese medicine still says that it is necessary to quote the words in Huangdi Neijing.
Basic introduction
Why is this classic medical book called Neijing? Because the ancients often called books with certain rules that must be learned and mastered as "classics", such as the Confucian Six Classics, Laozi's Tao Te Ching, Sanzi Classic and so on for enlightenment education. As for "inside", it is a relative name with "outside". It was also recorded in the ancient Huangdi Neijing, but it was later lost. This has nothing to do with the "inner chapter" of Han Shi Zhuan, Han Shi Zhuan and Zhuangzi.
The naming meaning of "crooked film" is the same, and it has no deep meaning. The addition of Huangdi's name in Neijing also means tracing back to the source, aiming at explaining that China's medical culture originated very early, not really referring to the works left by Huangdi or the works existing in Huangdi's time. In fact, Huangdi Neijing is a work after the Warring States Period, written in Qin and Han Dynasties, and it was not written by one person, but by a group.
Huangdi Neijing includes Su Wen and Ling Shu, and each part is introduced. Su Wen means to study the physiological and pathological problems of people as a material body. The main content of Lingshu is the study of acupuncture, so it is also called Acupuncture Meridian. Spirit is effective, and pivot means confidential and pivotal. The main meaning of "spiritual fulcrum" is that you must master the basic points of acupuncture to be effective.
Huangdi Neijing, as a classic medical work, comprehensively constructed the theoretical system of TCM and laid the foundation for the development of TCM. Its content is profound and magnificent. However, it is not easy to grasp the key points when reading, because it can't be done by one person at a time, so later doctors sorted and classified the original text of Huangdi Neijing, so that each kind of content discussed the same problems, allowing readers to grasp the key points and grasp the pearls.
There are many doctors engaged in this sorting work, among which Zhang Jingyue's book Jing Lei in the Ming Dynasty is the most commendable. He re-edited the original text of Huangdi Neijing, and classified it as 12 according to different contents, which played an important role in outlining and facilitating reference.
According to Zhang Jingyue's classification, Huangdi Neijing includes the following 12 categories, namely, the theory of taking life, the theory of yin and yang and five elements, the theory of zang-xiang, the theory of meridians, the theory of essence, blood and body fluid, the theory of etiology and pathogenesis, the theory of disease and syndrome, the theory of diagnosis, the theory of academic research, the theory of acupuncture at Shu points and the theory of five movements and six qi.
The content of Huangdi Neijing involves not only medicine, but also philosophy, astronomy, phenology, calendar and many other fields, and demonstrates the medical theory of traditional Chinese medicine with these theories. Therefore, the ancients called the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic "poor in heaven and discipline, low in geography, far away from things and close to the body, and even more difficult to ask." It means to discuss medical problems related to human physiology and pathology in combination with various things between heaven and earth. This is the guiding ideology of "the unity of heaven and man" and "the whole constant movement" in Huangdi Neijing.
It can be seen that the fundamental difference between Huangdi Neijing and many other medical books in the world is that it is not a simple medical work. However, only from the medical point of view, its theoretical essence and brilliant achievements not only nurtured doctors of past dynasties and guided clinical practice, but also had a positive impact on the development of world medicine.
For example, its discussion of human body surface anatomy, especially the measurement of digestive tract length, is very close to the data of western medicine; It first put forward the concept of blood circulation and realized the difference between systemic circulation and small circulation. These are too numerous to mention. Therefore, physicians in past dynasties attached great importance to Huangdi Neijing, regarded it as the "Sect of Physicians" and became a necessary classic medical book for learning Chinese medicine.
The characters in Huangdi Neijing belong to the ancient prose of Qin and Han Dynasties, which is equivalent to the genre of Fu in style. Therefore, it had a great influence on the traditional Chinese culture in the history of China, and it was a part of the traditional culture of China. Because of this, such a classic medical book is difficult to read in words, so doctors in past dynasties have different detailed annotations. For beginners, you can first choose textbooks such as Selected Reading of Neijing and gradually improve them.
