This question is so typical, and I think the traditional thinking of Chinese people is reflected behind this question.

The same word is rich in two meanings, and is reflected in the fact that much of Chinese medicine has both sides of the meaning as well.

The key point is the "degree", which needs to be grasped by clinical experience and is literally understood in two different ways.

But this one is right on both counts.

You can "taste" it carefully, take your time.

yin pulse, yin evidence are poor for reversal, yang evidence is good.

So the yin chakra is all bad? Not really.

Are all yang chakras good? Not really.

Depends on the circumstances.

For example, the same floating pulse has both superficial and deficiency symptoms

Similarly with the sunken pulse, there is both internal and deficiency evidence.

In a word, the internal evidence and the deficiency evidence are not good

Everyone savor it.

Since the same words actually have two aspects behind them, people who like to take the bull by the horns find it difficult to learn Chinese medicine and learn it well.

There are many more such questions, for example: five flavors enter the five organs, five flavors tonify the five organs, and, at the same time, five flavors injure the five organs.

If the people of Slate would ask, didn't you mean to mend? How come it hurts again?

The thinking behind it is that which comes from the I Ching, all considered in change.

It has a twofold connotation.

In Yang disease, if you see Yin pulse, you will die, such as fever, irritability, etc., but if you see Yin pulse, such as dull, stringy, astringent, late, weak, etc., it suggests that the positive energy is weak and the evil has entered the viscera, which is difficult to be treated. Yin disease, such as Shaoyin and Taiyin disease, is characterized by deficiency and cold, but when the Yang pulse is seen to be floating, large and slippery, on the one hand, it suggests that the positive qi is coming back, and on the other hand, it suggests that the positive qi is still alive and sufficient to fight against the evil.

Yin disease see yang pulse life, is that ah, the patient manifested a piece of cold phase, such as cold, face green, body cold, etc., but the pulse is really string solid slippery, such a patient to determine the prognosis, at least not dead. On the other hand, Yang disease see Yin pulse death, if the patient manifested as fever face red irritability, but the pulse is weak and slow, press the powerless, such patients to determine the prognosis is very dangerous, it is likely that mishandling the words will soon be dead.

Why does it look like this?

This begins with the relationship between the inner and outer positions of yin and yang.

The Nei Jing says that yang is outside and yin is inside, and yin is inside and yang is guarded. It seems that yang is outside and yin is inside, and this is correct, right? However, Laozi said in the Tao Te Ching that all things carry yin and embrace yang, yang is embraced inside and yin is carried outside, yang is inside and yin is outside, and all things are like this, so which of these two statements is right?

Actually, both statements are true, except that one is expressed as a body and the other as a use.

The concept of yang qi is the fundamental substance that constitutes everything in the world with the basic properties of warmth, movement, outward movement, and dispersion, while the concept of yin qi is the fundamental substance that constitutes everything in the world with the basic properties of coldness, inward movement, and astringency. The difference between the two, as can be seen from the comparison of the concepts, is that the basic properties are completely opposite.

Together, the two make up anything in the world, and nothing can be made up of just one of them. Why? Let's make a hypothesis. Suppose there is such a thing composed of only one of them and not the other, what will happen? It is very simple, only by the yang qi composition of things, because the yang qi non-stop movement dispersion, well, it will immediately scattered loss, and thus does not exist, and only by the yin qi composition of it, because the yin qi non-stop astringent contraction, it will immediately non-stop inward astringent to the limit so that it can not be found can not be used, but also the same as non-existent, which is the "lone yin does not live alone yang does not grow! This is the reasoning behind "solitary yin cannot be born, solitary yang cannot grow".

So everything should be composed of both Yin and Yang, so who should be inside and who should be outside?

Assuming that yang qi is outside and yin qi is inside, well, due to the different nature of yin and yang qi and their different tendencies, then the different contraction of yin qi inside without limit, and the non-stop dispersion of yang qi outside without limit, the two do not exist as mutual constraints but are in the state of separation from each other, then what goes outward goes outward and what goes inward goes inward and very soon, this thing also ceases to exist.

On the other hand, what if yang is inside and yin is outside? Within the yang qi kept dispersing, but by the outside of the yin qi convergence and can not be lost, the outside of the yin qi kept converging inward, but also by the inside of the yang qi blocked and can not be contracted, the two because of the mutual struggle, and thus can not be separated from each other, and thus the things can be long-lasting existence.

In other words, Lao Tzu seems to be right when he says that yang is inside while yin is outside.

However, because the two are constantly fighting each other, there is always a small part of the yang to the outside, there is always a small part of the yin to the inside, things can develop and change rely on the yang to the outside, and it can retain the yang not to quickly dissipate, but also rely on the yin in the inside, which is "yang in the outside of the yin to make the yin within the yang of the guard" of the This is the meaning of "yang in the outer yin to make yin in yang's guard".

In other words, Lao Tzu is talking about the fundamental truth of the existence of things, which is the body, while the Nei Jing is talking about dynamic changes, which is the use.

If you have a certain understanding of the I Ching, both Ji Gua and Wei Ji Gua said that this is the truth, water and fire of the signs of yin and yang, Wei Ji Gua is the fire on the top and the water on the bottom, the fire goes up and the water goes down, the two are separated from each other, so the Wei Ji on behalf of the prediction of the failure to go smoothly, or death, and Wei Ji Gua is the water on the top and the fire in the bottom, the fire in the lower and the upper, the water in the upper and the lower, the two are mingled with each other, on behalf of predicting the smooth or life! The two are intertwined, representing the prediction of smoothness or birth.

Okay, having understood the position of Yin and Yang in relation to each other, let's go back to your question.

Yin disease see yang pulse, that is, the symptoms of the disease for the outside, manifested as the phase of yin and cold, while the pulse manifested as the yang pulse, as the pulse is from the inside out on behalf of the inside, what is it at this time? The patient's external yin and internal yang, compounded by the Laozi negative yin and hold yang, that is, the state of the I Ching Qi Ji Gua, the external yin and cold wrapped around the patient's internal yang, yang can not be dispersed, this time the patient may be very difficult to bear, but not so much that the life will be lost, this internal and external manifestations of the prognosis of the birth of a newborn.

On the contrary, the patient's external manifestation of a faction of Yang heat, but on behalf of the internal pulse manifestation of Yin cold, which represents the patient is in the state of yang outside and yin inside, which happens to be contrary to the Laozi yang within the yin outside of the reasoning, that is, the state of the I Ching Wei Ji Gua, there are two possibilities, the first, the patient's yin qi is very weak, can not be restrained yang, and conversely yang will be scattered right away, and the second, the patient's yin qi is very real, more than the yang, and thus the yin qi report group to reject the yang to force the yang to run out of this time will also be scattered away. The second is that the patient's yin qi is very solid, exceeding the yang qi, so that the yin qi report group rejects the yang qi, forcing the yang qi to run out, and at this time the yang qi will also be dissipated, regardless of which, the yang qi is dissipated, the only yin is not long, the patient is enough to definitely be death.

I've never seen a professional question of this kind asked in a headline, so I'll elaborate and hopefully help you out.

Yin disease is characterized by the birth of the yang pulse, while yang disease is characterized by the death of the yin pulse. Yin disease refers to internal injuries and deficiency disease, deficiency disease pulse must be weak, after treatment by the doctor pulse (weak pulse) gradually from weak to flat pulse or for the Yang pulse for the smooth, meaning that the disease is slowly recovering, and Yang disease see Yin pulse with the death of two cases, one, for the disease for the Yang, and the pulse for the virtual (Yin') refers to the disease of the pulse does not fu, the second is the disease and the disease were all Yang disease, and by the doctor's misuse or failure to gradually become Yin disease, the pulse also became weak. The pulse also becomes deficient. If there is a surface evidence, the pulse should be floating, but now we see that the pulse is sinking and slow, so we know that the cure is also. This sentence is to say that the surface symptoms see floating large, for the pulse and symptoms of the smooth, after the doctor's treatment of the surface of the evidence is not, the pulse from the floating large for the sinking late for the disease, the sinking of the late is compared with the surface evidence of the floating large pulse and the argument.

First, there are yin and yang pulses. Yang pulse refers to the pulse is more than flat pulse (such as large, floating, counting, moving, slippery), Yin pulse refers to the pulse is more than flat pulse less than (such as sunken, astringent, weak, stringy, micro).

Yang disease refers to the Yang evidence of the Eight Syllabi or to the three Yang diseases, and Yin disease refers to the Yin evidence of the Eight Syllabi or to the three Yin diseases.

Any Yin disease, such as Li, deficiency, cold evidence or Taiyin, Shaoyin, or Syncope Yin disease, and see Yang pulse, is the positive victory over the evil, the prognosis is better, so see 'Sheng'; such as "Typhoid Fever Treatise" Article 290 Shaoyin stroke ..., Article 361 Shallow profits, number of pulses... now since healed ..., Article 367 Shallow profits, number of pulses and thirst, now Self-healing...etc. Yang disease, such as surface, heat, solid evidence or sun, yangming, shaoyang disease, and see yin pulse, is the positive does not overcome the image of evil, the prognosis is poor, so that 'death', such as the "Typhoid Fever Treatise" article 214, yangming disease ....... pulse against the micro astringent, the internal deficiency, for difficult to treat.

That is why the Suwen said: 'If the pulse is from yin and yang, the disease is easy; if the pulse is against yin and yang, the disease is difficult'.

Second: 'If the surface of the disease, the pulse should be floating large, now the pulse against sinking late, so I know that the healing is also', this article sinking late pulse is relative to the floating large, such as typhoid fever, stroke of the pulse floating tight and slow pulse, the pulse of the stroke is not a modern floating slow pulse, it should be relative to the floating tight pulse of the word, so this sinking late pulse is not a cold evidence of the sunken late pulse, but means that the pulse image has turned into a calm and the phenomenon of the positive to show that the return of the evil but the evil retreat, the disease has the opportunity to heal. The disease has a chance to heal.

I would be grateful for the advice of my colleagues.

• I read a few responses that were quite amusing, so I pretended to be a teacher to answer this question.
• First, note that the ancient text where the first is listed is the outline. You asked the first sentence is to identify the pulse method first, [Q said] pulse with yin and yang, what is also? [Answer] Where the pulse is large, floating,........., where the Yin disease see the Yang pulse is born, Yang disease see the Yin pulse is dead. Equivalent to say, the patient asked you to go to see a doctor, you always have to first look at the patient will not die, obviously know that difficult to cure will die, you still open the prescription? Therefore, do not take out of context, nonsense.

Second, the second sentence you asked is the second of the flat pulse method, which is about diseases that won't kill you, diseases that have a cure, specific diseases. The original is [asked] the upper work to look and know, the middle work to ask and know, the lower work pulse to know, I would like to hear it. [The teacher said] sick family members please Yun, the patient if fever, body pain, the patient lying down, the teacher to, diagnose its pulse, heavy and late, know the difference. How to know? If there is a disease on the surface, the pulse should be floating, but now the pulse is sunken and slow, so I know that the cure. This vernacular is very clear, right? That is to say, body pain and fever is his family called the doctor to diagnose said, not the patient's current situation, when the doctor went to the patient's home to see the diagnosis, the pulse changed, the pulse will not tell a lie, when the pulse, not based on the family mouth to say, is an example, in the work of the smell to know will be wrong, the lower work of the pulse to know the right instead.

Third, why do I answer this way? Because people deify the classics, thinking that they are learned by studying them to the point of interpreting them with the Scriptures, when in fact they can read and understand them as far as their knowledge of ancient texts in high school is concerned!

From the content of the book, the pulse method is probable that the work of Wang Shuhe, from the content, just elaboration is too absolute, typhoid fever theory in certain words can be seen as likely, the surface evidence of the pulse from floating to sinking, refers to the relative floating to say, suggesting that the condition is getting better. As for the opposite of disease and pulse is just an ancient way of understanding, Yin disease see Yang on behalf of the positive qi enough, Yang disease see Yin refers to the positive qi is not enough, the two sentences seem contradictory, in fact, shows that the pulse for the physiology and pathology of the dual significance of the guidance and short-term condition, long-term judgment of the body. It can be used as a reference.

When we learn Chinese medicine, of course, we can't not read the classic medical works, but nowadays, many people take the theory of qianhan to say something, which makes me feel the meaningless thinking of the modern people, nowadays, in the development of western medicine, people think that Chinese medicine is useless, which is really a deviation, and due to the knowledge of modern western medicine nowadays, they don't understand the concepts of Chinese medicine and its principles, and they feel helpless, and they will make inappropriate comparisons and then make inappropriate pronouncements, which is unnecessary, and again, I would like to talk about why the theory of qianhan has become one of the classic books for learning Chinese medicine. Speaking of qianhan theory why become one of the classic books to learn Chinese medicine, is in the ancient knowledge of warm diseases from generation to generation of popular and get experience cases and pass on, is the reference case of Chinese medicine, many soup formula also have clear success, so can conclude that learning Chinese medicine not to refer to the book is a lack of.

Yang disease and Yin disease, and Yang pulse and Yin pulse, mean different things. Yang disease refers to the prevalence of evil qi. Yin disease is a disease in which there is a deficiency of fluids. Yang pulse means that the body is full of positive energy, and yin pulse means that there is a deficiency of fluids in the body. When fluid deficiency is seen to be restored by Yang Qi, the disease is born. Evil qi is full of body fluid insufficient people die. Yin disease and Yang disease refers to the situation where the patient feels the disease. Yin pulse Yang pulse refers to the body's qi, blood and fluids are declining. The second better explanation is that the doctor went to the patient's home after the pulse diagnosis, his symptoms have gone, know that the cure does not mean that he is well, it means that do not use the method of treating the symptoms to cure its bitter fever and body pain.

In fact, it is easy to understand by comparing it to examples in life. When a yang disease dies in the presence of a yin chakra, the external forces are strong. When a yin disease sees a yang pulse, it is a bright future. The second sentence, which you will see later on, is that when yin and yang are in harmony with each other, they will be cured. This is the self-reconciliation of yin and yang.
