Res: Lungs - Vessels?

[Guest guest]

Dear Dr. Holmes

 

LU – 9( By Peter Deadman )

 

Shu-Stream, Yuan-Source and Earth point

of the Lung channel

Hui-Meeting point of the Vessels

 

 

....................................

According to the Classic of Difficulties21 “the vessels

gather at Taiyuan LU-9”, whilst the Classic of Categories

states “The flow of the channels [must] follow the qi, the

qi is dominated by the Lung, therefore it is the meeting of

the hundred vessels”. These statements refer to the important

relationship between the qi ood”,

and the further statement in the Classic of Categories that

“The vessels are the pathways of the blood qi; the circulation

of the vessels is dependent on qi”. In other words, the

blood moves through the blood vessels by virtue of the

movement of qi, and in the chest and Heart region especially,

the circulation of the blood is dependent on the

gathering qi [formed from the combination of air inhaled

by the Lung and the grain qi of food and drink]. Taiyuan

LU-9, the hui-meeting point of the vessels, is therefore an

important point to harmonise the relationship between

the gathering qi and the blood. When the gathering qi is

deficient and fails to circulate the blood, it will pool and

stagnate in the chest and Heart, giving rise to oppression

and fullness, agitation, Heart pain with a choppy pulse,

and in severe cases manic raving. Taiyuan LU-9 is further

indicated for disorders of the blood vessels in general

such as vomiting, spitting or coughing blood and pulseless

syndrome...........................

LU 9 tones Metal, if that's what you mean.

Rest sounds biochemical to me and therefore alien.
