Under the teachings of the ancient saints, they are also called false and evil thief wind (generally referring to all abnormal climate changes and unhealthy qi that infringe on the human body), avoiding them sometimes; idyllic nothingness (tranquility and indifference, no greed and delusion), true qi from it; spiritual introspection, illness and security. It is to be idle and have less desire, peace of mind without fear, form and fatigue, obedience to qi, and obedience to each desire, and all get what they want. Therefore, it is beautiful to eat, to let (dress casually) its clothes, to enjoy its customs, to be high and low is not to be admired, and its people are known as simple. It is because lust (shì yù, a special habit) cannot be bothered, lust cannot deceive his heart, foolishness is not good, and he is not afraid of things, so he is in harmony with the Tao. Therefore, those who can live a hundred years old every year, and the action is not weak, with its virtue (fully mastering and practicing the way of health) is not dangerous.
Vernacular paraphrasing: Qi Bo went on to say that the saints of the "Three Emperors" era who knew how to maintain health often taught people that in order to maintain physical and mental health, they must cultivate both inside and outside.
First, take precautions against the outside world, and avoid all evil qi that infringe on the human body, such as wind, cold, dryness, wetness, heat, fire, etc., in a timely manner;
The second is to be content in the heart, maintain a quiet and indifferent mentality, eliminate the obstacles of greed and delusion, and let the true qi in the body follow the thoughts, so as to achieve spiritual introspection, so that diseases and evils cannot invade.
A person who cultivates to such a state is often at ease of mind and has little greed, a stable mind without suffering from gains and losses, diligent in labor without being tired and tired, a very smooth heart, a very reasonable desire, and can be satisfied, as desired. Whatever you eat, you feel sweet; you feel comfortable when you wear it; and you are happy to follow all kinds of customs. It doesn't matter if the status is higher or lower, the high status does not bully the low status, and the low status does not envy the high status. People in such a state really live a simple, simple and happy life.
Those improper hobbies cannot disturb their hearing and hearing at all; those obscene and evil tendencies cannot confuse their hearts at all. The whole society, whether it is qualified and intelligent, or foolish, whether it is virtuous or ordinary, is not afraid of the erosion of external evils, and can make its life conform to the laws of nature. It is precisely because they have fully mastered and practiced the way of health and not given the opportunity for evil qi to infringe on themselves, so most of them have lived past 100 years and still have no signs of aging.
In Qi Bo's exquisite analysis, there is a word of "avoidance" that we must taste repeatedly, because this word tells the basic tips of Chinese medicine to cure diseases and maintain health. "False evil and thief wind, avoiding it sometimes" precisely reflects the outstanding characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine health care, which is in stark contrast with the "resistance" of modern Western medicine. Qi Bo told us that we must avoid the wind, cold, heat, wetness, dryness, and fire from the outside world, and do not stand up to it.
Living and living, dressing and eating, should change according to the changes in the natural environment, do not go shirtless in the cold winter months, do not wear cotton jackets in the hot summer, do not eat on an empty stomach in the morning, do not break the belly at night, and so on.
As for the treatment of diseases, Chinese medicine pays more attention to a "avoidance" word. The evil qi of the virus invaded the body, as if a young and strong thief had entered the old man's house. The western medicine line of thought tells you to hurry up and close the door, stand up against the evil thief, and be sure to kill him. The result is likely to be that the old man was killed by the thief, and even if he was lucky enough to win the confrontation, he killed and injured the thief and consumed himself. The idea of Chinese medicine tells you not to fight directly, quickly open the doors and windows, and use clever methods to either coax the thief out and scare it out, or use medicine to clean up the thief, try to avoid fighting hard and damaging your own life essence.
For another example, when a mass epidemic breaks out, the first strategy that should be adopted is to "thirty-six counts, avoid the upper plan", and quickly implement isolation measures, including not going out, wearing masks, wearing protective clothing, etc., to avoid the spread of the evil gas virus to a wider range, rather than facing each other and waiting for what "antibodies" to be formed.
The number of knots in the lives of men and women
Emperor Yue: A person who is old and childless, has all the strength (energy) of the evil, and the number of days (the number of lifespan defined by the natural law of the development of life) is also true. Qi Bo Yue: The woman is seven years old with strong kidneys and longer teeth. Twenty-seven and heavenly decay (estrogen) to, Ren pulse, tai chong pulse sheng, menstruation (menstruation) to the present, so there are children (fertility). The kidney qi is average, so the true teeth (wisdom teeth) are born and grow poles. Four or seven strong bones, long hair, strong body. Five seven yang ming pulse decline, the face begins to scorch, the beginning of the fall; six seven three yang pulse declines in the upper, the face is scorched, the beginning is white; the seven seven ren pulse is weak, the tai chong pulse is weak, the heavens are exhausted, the tunnel is not clear (menstruation stops), so the shape is bad and childless. The husband is eight years old and has strong kidneys and longer teeth. Twenty-eight kidney qi, heavenly decay, essence overflow, yin and yang, so can have children. Thirty-eight kidney qi is average, strong muscles and bones, so the real teeth are born and grow poles. Four or eight muscles and bones are full of muscles. Five or eight kidneys are weak, and the teeth are fallen. Liuba Yang Qi failed on the top, his face was scorched, and his sideburns were white. Seven or eight liver qi failure, tendons can not move, heavenly exhaustion, less refined, kidney hidden decline, the shape is extreme. Eight or eight teeth are sent away. The main water of the kidneys is hidden by the essence of the five Tibetans (heart, liver, lungs, spleen, kidneys) and the six houses (gallbladder, stomach, large intestine, small intestine, bladder, and sanjiao), so the five viscera are full of energy and can write (diarrhea). Now the five Tibetans are in decline, the bones and muscles are dissolved, and the heavens are exhausted, so they have white sideburns, heavy bodies, improper steps, and no ears.
Vernacular paraphrasing: Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, it flows from spring to summer, from summer to autumn. Looking at the flakes of yellow leaves that were falling, stroking his gradually graying beard, the Yellow Emperor suddenly developed a sad mood and asked Qi Bo: When the tree is old, it will not grow new leaves; when people are old, they will not be able to give birth to children. Is this the reason for their lack of energy? Or is it the reason governed by the universal laws governing the development of life?
Qiberius mused: The main reason is the law of nature. The general physiological process of men and women is generally limited by the two "knots" of "seven" and "eight". When a woman reaches the age of 7, her kidneys begin to fill, her teeth change, and her hair grows. By the age of 2714, the estrogen was sufficient, the body was mature, the ren pulse was unobstructed, the qi and blood of the tai chong pulse were more vigorous, and the menstruation came on time, and by this time, it had fertility. By the age of 37 21, the kidney qi is more abundant, the wisdom teeth have grown, and the body's qi and blood essence are more exuberant. By the age of 47 and 28, the muscles and bones were stronger and the hair was more dense. At this time, the physical strength has reached its best state. By the age of 57 and 35, the Yangming Gastric Meridian and the Large Intestine Meridian began to decline, the facial skin began to burn, and the hair began to fall out. By the age of 6742, the sun, Yangming, and Shaoyang meridians as a whole began to decline, the facial skin appeared more scorched, and the hair slowly turned white. By the age of 7749, the qi and blood in Ren's pulse slowly vanished, the TaiChong pulse was weakened, the estrogen was basically exhausted, and the menstruation was stopped. The body enters the so-called "menopause", naturally aging, basically infertile.
As for men, at the age of 8, the kidney qi begins to be full, the hair grows, and the teeth are replaced. By the age of 2816, the kidney qi was further enriched, the male hormones rose, the sperm in the body was also full of storage, and the phenomenon of sperm loss appeared. At this time, men and women have sex together, and they can get pregnant and have children. By the age of 38 and 24, the kidney qi is more abundant, the muscles and bones are strong, and the wisdom teeth grow. By the age of 48 and 32, the skeletal muscles were more developed, and the strength of the body reached its peak state. By the age of five or eight and 40, the kidney qi began to decay, the hair began to fall out, and the teeth also appeared loose; by the age of six or eight and 48, the yang qi was increasingly exhausted, the face became scorched, and the sideburns turned white. By the age of seven or eight, 56 years old, the liver qi has obviously declined, the tendons and veins have lost sufficient nourishment, the action is not good, the male hormones are slowly reduced, the essence and kidney qi are failing, and the body has also entered a "menopausal" state, appearing tired and aging. By the age of 88,64, teeth began to fall out and hair began to fall out.
The kidneys in the human body are in charge of water. When people are young and mature, the kidneys can store the essence and essence produced by the five internal organs, not only can they nourish the internal organs, meridians, blood vessels, fur, etc. in time, but also have a certain surplus for indulgence and excretion. However, in old age, the functions of the five internal organs have declined, the muscles and bones are no longer strong, and the hormones that maintain life vitality are gradually exhausted. By this time, the hair and beard are white, the body feels more and more heavy, and even the road is unstable, where is the ability to have children?
See enlightenment: This passage of Qi Bo can be regarded as revealing the "universal" law of old age, illness and death in life. From this law, we can understand that QiBo proposed an important concept, that is, the "number of life knots", with "seven" as the number of sections for women and "eight" for men. Through the law of the number of life nodes for men and women, we can determine our own health path:
Regardless of men and women, the essence energy of life is based on "four" as an important node, the woman's body is the most prosperous at the age of four or seven and 28, and the man's body is the most powerful at the age of four or eight and 32. Its physical energy is the ascending period before the "four" and the descending period after the "four".
Both men and women, if they want to raise themselves well and make themselves healthy and long-lived, they must do two things, that is, in the ascending period of the body, they must pay attention to saving, just like Old Master Kong said that "the abstinence is in color", and must not excessively squander their qi and blood essence; and in the decline period of the body, in addition to paying attention to saving, they must also appropriately nourish themselves with yin and yang, replenish qi and blood, and fill the essence, so that their spirit can maintain a continuous state of abundance.
