A Study on the Application of the Meridian and Collateral System & Qi Transformation, and the Five Circuits & Six Qi’s

The meridian and collateral system, as the cyclic path of Qi and blood, is an important basis for diagnostics and treatment as it reflects the physiology and pathology of the human body. Huangdi Neijing emphasizes the importance of the meridian and collateral system by pointing out "the twelve meridians are means for humans to live, causes of the formation of diseases, means to treat patients and causes of the onset of diseases. Thus, a novice should begin with the meridian and collateral system, and even medical experts should be careful with it.“ One who studies medicine should first establish concepts because he or she can build logics, clarify meanings, and achieve unification of knowledge only by doing so. Oriental scholars have taken correct naming as the basis of philosophy because they believe that principles and practices correspond only with completion of correct naming as humans grasp, recognize, and judge things in terms of their names. The purpose ofthis study is to apply the theory of the meridian and collateral system & Qi transformation to clinical situations more easily and simply. As the names of meridians are combinations of their meanings and contents, one can not only understand the core contents of the meridian and collateral system & Qi transformation but also even operate them with the analysis of the names of the twelve meridians. The names of meridians consist of three components: the sites there the meridians flow, six Qi’s, and five phases, of which six Qi’s and five phases are the core theoretical system of oriental medicine. As a result of the exploration of the theory of the meridian and collateral system & Qi transformation with special reference to those three elements, this study has reached the following conclusions.
1. The view of the human body based on the "correspondence between nature and human" is the core philosophy of oriental medicine as the human body corresponds to Great Nature, changes, and is adjusted.
2. The meridian and collateral system & Qi transformationis realized by the body water ascending and fire descending with the reflection of the Five Phases of Yin and Yang and the Five Circuits & Six Qi’s.
3. The realization of the meridian and collateral system & Qi transformation by the body water ascending and fire descending is the result of the antagonism of the exterior and interior relations of six Qi’s including Greater Yin and Yang Brightness, Lesser Yin and Greater Yang, and Reverting Yin and Lesser Yang
4. We can tell that the characteristics of the Five Circuits & Six Qi’s are revealed at the five transport points of meridian vessels.
