Acupuncture Treating Heart Disease Based on Eight Palaces or Eight Veins <br/>—Mathematical Reasoning of Treatment Principle Based on Yin Yang Wu Xing Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (IV)

Theory of eight palaces (八宫) or eight veins (八脉) is useful in understanding the basic sick subsystems that may be to fall ills as the root-cause. By using mathematical reasoning based on Yin Yang Wu Xing Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this paper demonstrates the treatment principle: “Even if all changed, it is hard to change one’s nature” (江山易改, 本性难移). The eight palaces or eight veins can be used to diagnose basic sick subsystems that may be to fall ills as the root-cause. The first or second transfer law of human body energies of the eight palaces or eight veins according to the different blood pH values of a human body whether in the normal range or not, respectively, assuming that the range of blood pH value is divided into four parts from small to large. Both second and third are for a healthy human body. Both the root-cause and symptoms come from the first transfer law of human body energies. And both first and fourth are for an unhealthy human body. Both the root-cause and symptoms come from the second transfer law of human body energies. A disease treatment should protect and maintain the balance of two incompatibility relations: the loving relationship and the killing relationship. As an application, acupuncture is used to treat atrial premature beats as a congenital heart disease.

Acupuncture Treating Heart Diseases Based on Sixty JiaZi and Eight Palaces <br/>—Mathematical Reasoning of Treatment Principle Based on Yin Yang Wu Xing Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (V)

Theory of Sixty JiaZi (60 甲子) is useful in understanding a human body disease. By using mathematical reasoning based on Yin Yang Wu Xing Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this paper demonstrates the treatment principle: “seize the momentum of development, hasten lucky avoids disaster” (顺势而为, 趋吉避凶). Sixty JiaZi is hidden behind eight palaces. The first or second transfer law of human body energies of Sixty JiaZi changes according to the different blood pH values of a human body whether in the normal range or not, respectively, assuming that the range of blood pH values of a human body is divided into four parts from small to large. Both second and third are for a healthy human body. Both the root-cause and symptoms come from the first transfer law of human body energies. And both first and fourth are for an unhealthy human body. Both the root-cause and symptoms come from the second transfer law of human body energies. The treating disease of a human body should protect and maintain the balance of two incompatibility relations: the loving relationship and the killing relationship. As an application, acupuncture is used to treat atrial premature beats as congenital heart disease.

Image Mathematics—Mathematical Intervening Principle Based on “Yin Yang Wu Xing” Theory in Traditional Chinese Mathematics (I)

By using mathematical reasoning, this paper demonstrates the mathematical intervening principle: “Virtual disease is to fill his mother but real disease is to rush down his son” (虚则补其母, 实则泄其子) and “Strong inhibition of the same time, support the weak” (抑强扶弱) based on “Yin Yang Wu Xing” Theory in image mathematics of Traditional Chinese Mathematics (TCMath). We defined generalized relations and generalized reasoning, introduced the concept of steady multilateral systems with two non-compatibility relations, and discussed its energy properties. Later based on the intervention principle in image mathematics of TCMath and treated the research object of the image mathematics as a steady multilateral system, it has been proved that the mathematical intervening principle is true. The kernel of this paper is the existence and reasoning of the non-compatibility relations in steady multilateral systems, and it accords with the oriental thinking model.

Mathematical Reasoning of Treatment Principle Based on “Yin Yang Wu Xing” Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine

By using mathematical reasoning, this paper demonstrates the treatment principle: “Virtual disease is to fill his mother but real disease is to rush down his son” and “Strong inhibition of the same time, support the weak” based on “Yin Yang Wu Xing” Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). We defined two kinds of opposite relations and one kind of equivalence relation, introduced the concept of steady multilateral systems with two non-compatibility relations, and discussed its energy properties. Later based on the treatment of TCM and treated the healthy body as a steady multilateral system, it has been proved that the treatment principle is true. The kernel of this paper is the existence and reasoning of the non-compatibility relations in steady multilateral systems, and it accords with the oriental thinking model.

Mathematical Reasoning of Treatment Principle Based on “Yin Yang Wu Xing” Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (II)

By using mathematical reasoning, this paper demonstrates the treatment principle: “Do not treat a disease after it has occurred. But treat the disease before it will occur” (不治已病治未病) based on “Yin Yang Wu Xing” Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). We defined generalized relations and reasoning, introduced the concept of generalized steady multilateral systems, and discussed its energy properties. Later based on the treatment of TCM and treated the healthy body as a steady multilateral system, it has been proved that the treatment principle above is true. The kernel of this paper is the existence and reasoning of the non-compatibility relations in steady multilateral systems, and it accords with the oriental thinking model.

Acupuncture Treating Dystrophy Based on pH <br/>—Mathematical Reasoning of Treatment Principle Based on Yin Yang Wu Xing Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (III)

Theory of both Zangxiang (藏象) and Jingluo (经络) is useful in understanding disease. By using mathematical reasoning based on Yin Yang Wu Xing Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this paper demonstrates the treatment principle: “Searching for a root cause of disease in cure, treatment of both the root-cause and symptoms at the same time” (治病求本, 标本兼治). It means that for a human body, there is the mathematical structure of both Zangxiang and Jingluo as her/his second physiological system. It can be used to determine both the root-cause and symptoms of the sick organ by using both Zangxiang and Jingluo. In general, for the human blood pH value, the normal range of theory is [7.34539, 7.45461] nearly to [7.35, 7.45], and the center is 7.4. The first or second transfer law of a human body’s energies changes according to the different blood pH values whether in the normal range or not. Human disease treatment should protect and maintain the balance of two incompatibility relations: the loving relationship and the killing relationship. As an application, acupuncture is used to treat limb-girdle muscular dystrophy.

道教建筑的哲学理念初探

要达到神仙长生的目的、修炼成仙,就必须有一定的环境和空间。道教建筑自然就成为了实现这一目的的媒介。于是道教建筑被赋予更多的内涵,成为蕴含了道教哲学理念的宗教建筑,也成为了体现道教生命哲学、阴阳五行思想以及天人感应思想的物化载体。

从古代阴阳五行宇宙观看先秦至汉初五音与十二律生律法的思想根源

先秦至汉初关于五音与十二律的记载,有《管子》、《国语》、《吕氏春秋》、《放马滩秦简》、《礼记月令》、《淮南子》、《汉书》等文献,而其中有关三分损益法的最为典型的材料要数《管子》记载的五音与《吕氏春秋》记载的十二律。从上述系列文献中可见先秦至汉初五声、十二律的生律法与古代先民的阴阳五行宇宙观相联系,并有其系统、深厚的思想基础。本文将本着以"古人的思想研究古代"的宗旨,依据已有的古代哲学研究成果,探寻五声、十二律生律法的思想依据,为古代乐律文献的解读提供一个可以尝试的思维方法。

儒家伦理影响下的汉代民间信仰新变化

汉之前,民间信仰的对象主要是自然崇拜以及对某些有功于民的古圣先贤的信仰。西汉中期后,随着儒家"独尊"地位的确立,儒家伦理在多种因素的作用下,对基层民众的生活产生了日益重要的影响。民间信仰的变化,便是这种影响的突出表现:一方面是以儒出仕的官吏成为民间信仰的对象;另一方面是世俗忠孝传说故事和孝感动天信仰的流播。可以说,符合儒家忠孝伦理的神灵成为西汉中期以后民间信仰的新的对象,这是不同于以往民间信仰的新特点。

本原与气化——古希腊医学四元素说与中医五行思想

古希腊医学四元素说和中医五行思想在表面的相似之下蕴含着深刻的区别:四元素说用不变的本原解释变化的世界,而五行本身就是生生不息的气化过程。四元素是空间主导的思想,五行则根本上是时间的思想。所以,四元素必须借助本原之外的"爱恨"来作为推动力才能解释不变的本原如何形成变化的世界,五行则在自身中蕴含着生克化合的动力。通过五行气化,天地人和四时五方被纳入一个整体之中,而四元素说对世界的认识则是基于对不变世界的几何空间想象,并从而导致人与自然的对立结构。

论阴阳五行说对王逸《楚辞章句》的影响

王逸《楚辞章句》受阴阳五行说影响的一个方面是将四时、四方与阴阳五行相结合,认为国家的治理、个人的修养都要顺应阴阳五行的规律;另一方面是阴阳五行说以自然现象比附社会人事,为王逸阐释《楚辞》中的文学意象提供了一个特定的文化背景。

董仲舒对阴阳五行之学的整合

《春秋繁露》中,董仲舒通过阴阳、五行内在机制的运行、转换,第一次对"天之十端"进行了整合,具有非常重要的学术价值。五行之中,土为至尊,金、木、水、火之行,各以自身本性为本质,始终拥有自己的立场和位次,同时也接受、服从阴阳二端的遣动,五行与阴阳协调运作,共同发生效用。阴阳因金、木、水、火之行而兴起并分别对之予以帮助和辅佐。阴、阳,甚或阴阳的兼合,都不可能成为宇宙演进的唯一力量源泉,只有在阴阳、天、地3种因素共同作用的条件下才能有世界万物的发生和形成。经由阴阳的天人整合,既统一了天与人,又使天、人与阴阳之间实现了联体互动。董仲舒对天、地、人以及阴阳五行所做的整合与统一,给原先刻板、呆滞、僵死的阴阳机制注入了生机与活力,使阴阳五行周行运转的图景不再呈现单调、枯燥的色彩,儒学的人类主体情怀和人性价值被有机地渗透到阴阳五行的机制结构中,促使阴阳学整个系统能够喷发出人性的味道和日常生活的气息。

宏观经济中的“五行”规律初探

"阴阳五行"是一个道术兼收并蓄的哲学科学体系。"五行"中的"木、火、土、金、水"与宏观经济活动中的"大众消费、金融、市场投资、外贸出口、公共投资和消费"五个重要环节的内涵有着十分契合的对应关系;并且可以抽象归纳为五种类型的广义经济消费。这两者中的诸要素(环节)均遵循"相生相克、相乘相侮"的运行规律。在宏观经济的把控和驾驭过程中,只要充分理解并科学运用"生克制化、乘侮胜复"的"五行"规律,就能使其五个重要环节始终处于合理的平衡状态并健康发展。以"阴阳五行"理论观照并应用于宏观经济的研究和实践,应该可以为我国乃至世界经济发展作出贡献。

两汉政治巫术基本内核解析

政治巫术是基于两汉政治史的特质而提出的概念,指巫术在国家政治中的运用,即用超自然的神秘力量影响和改变政治事件的运行和政治局面的形成。政治巫术包括理论层面和实践层面。政治巫术理论是对国家政治事件发生顺序的规律的解释,对政治运行规律的把握主要基于"同类相动"和"果必同因"的思维律。两汉政治巫术理论的原理是围绕"阴阳"、"五行"、"天命"这几个基核展开的,这些观念与国家政治相联系形成完整的理论系统是一个逐渐发展的过程。

论董仲舒政治哲学的理论基础

天是董仲舒哲学的信念本体,天道学理论包括阴阳五行学说、感应说等,是一个有机组成系统,天、人都有性情,可以相互沟通,能够彼此感应,天道可向人道渗透。天道论、阴阳五行说、性情说、感应说奠定了董仲舒政治哲学的理论基础。

《齐诗》情性论新探

汉代儒家学者接续先秦学者对情性的关注,运用情性论《诗》,在汉代经学视野下对于文学内部规律进行了有益探讨。汉代四家诗中,《齐诗》学者的情性论颇有特色。同出一脉的匡衡与翼奉对此分别提出了自己的观点,其中翼奉以阴阳五行、天人感应说情性,体现出汉代阴阳五行思想对于诗学的渗透。作为同受儒家正统文艺思想牢笼的汉代各家诗学,不管"匡氏"学与"翼氏"学,还是《齐诗》学与《毛诗》学,其最终目的都是干预现实,经世致用。
