Guest guest Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Hi. Once upon a time in that forever oneness quiet, before time or stars, or even the existence of a gravity, the lover and giver of all things had a dream. In the no space/ all space, the lover wanted to laugh. And it felt noble to him, to crown silence with joy. And his joy became his mate, and they played endlessly that sweet forever night, even to complete exhaustion. He fell in love with joy so much that he wanted to give her something perfect, something joy would know always, whenever she looked at it, how real and pure and enthusiastic he felt toward her. So he made her a place, an unlimited studio, where she might make and do whatever she wanted. She liked this. First she made light, little points burning furiously with heat. Softly lighting the forever, so she could see her lover, and so he could see her too, in all her wild beauty. She made him rock, mist, heat and perspective. Joy felt his desire for her grow in her with these gifts, so she made for the lover; worlds, beings, streams of self perpetuating life. They walked and he squeezed her hand, and they made love everywhere that day. The works Joy made, created thier own heavens, endless lives, pure worlds, sweet dreams from the dark quiet night. And her creations danced their own dance, like children of the sky. And as long as there was light and dark, night and day, she knew they would be together, just as they were in the beginning, with just the silence, with rain sounds. --- On Sun, 2/22/09, mystir <ykcul_ritsym wrote: mystir <ykcul_ritsym RE: Re: Acupuncture Channels Chinese Medicine Sunday, February 22, 2009, 11:30 PM Mr. Kim Bongham's pre 1990's studies were controversial. If I have the person right. I am not someone who is averse to controversy, believe me, I swim in it, but the seperate chi pathways with tubules, etc, envisioned and described by him were given at a time of want for channel verification, on a level of tissue verification. Now we more understand all the very subtle energies operating in the living body, the variations of chi, not just another organ. All organs, mind, exist because of it, because it is pervasive, and infinite in the ways it nourishes. All our diagnostic skills, aim at seeing qi in its abundance or decline. I'm not saying he wasn't brilliant, our didn't see, or that maybe his work was misinterpreted. But I reviewed it, and the exact anotomical structures he pointed to were vague. Nonetheless, his work was a great stimulus to channel medicine, he challenged artfully, the premises of basic physiology. In just that respect, he was a great. --- On Sun, 2/22/09, mike Bowser <naturaldoc1@ hotmail.com> wrote: mike Bowser <naturaldoc1@ hotmail.com> RE: Re: Acupuncture Channels traditional_ chinese_medicine Sunday, February 22, 2009, 9:38 PM Curious if Mr. Kendall considered or had access to the physiological research of Dr. Kim Bonghan or more recent studies by Dr. Soh. Dr. Soh and others have had many studies of a microtubular system published in various peer-reviewed journals. As these structures appear to flow inside and along blood vessels, lymph vessels, follow the traditional pathways and attach directly to organs, makes some sense as to the interconnectedness of the network and yet their size makes them elusive. There are some interesting compounds that have been identified inside. Michael W.

Mo yuan and cou li as dynamic, lots to say. --- On Sun, 2/22/09, kncherman (AT) pacbell (DOT) net <kncherman (AT) pacbell (DOT) net> wrote: kncherman (AT) pacbell (DOT) net <kncherman (AT) pacbell (DOT) net> Re: Acupuncture Channels Sunday, February 22, 2009, 7:12 PM D.E Kendalls book- The Dao of Chinese medicine has a different take on meridians ( which he says is a totaly incorrect term, he prefers vessels) He makes a case for acupuncture channels corresponding to physiological blood, lymph and nerve pathways. An example is the radial artery path along the " lung vessel " . He does not believe in an engergetic invisible energy that is not based on physiology. He translates chi as vital breath and links it a lot with oxygen. (there are many differnt types of CHi) He was a teacher of mine years ago and he spent a lot of time researching the physiology of needleing. He also reads chinese and his book his basically his translation of the chinese texts. I happen to agree with Z'ev that Wang Ju Yi's book is definitive. I think we owe it to the medicine to become as well versed and educated as possible in all areas of information related to our system of medicine. It is a daunting job, but I think we all know what the results are. - In Traditional_ Chinese_Medicine , <zrosenbe@.. .> wrote: > > Yes, Wang Ju-yi's book on acupuncture channels with Jason Robertson is > far and away the best thing in English on this subject. . .it is > definitive. > > > > On Feb 21, 2009, at 2:31 PM, Hugo Ramiro wrote: > >> Hi all, another quotation for all of you to drool over: >> >> " Acupuncture channels are not ancient models of nerve, lymph, or >> blood vessel pathways but are instead something entirely different.
