Chapter 7 What is Qi?
Go back to the ward, see if it's still early, and get ready to find something to see and pass the time. Luckily, I don't know who left it, or if it's from the hospital, and I found some old magazines in the bedside cabinet. I flipped it over, but I didn't see anything to see, and I didn't even have this story.
In the end, I turned to a medical magazine, and the others were some medical care and other introductions, as well as advertisements, but there was an article that attracted Ma Guocai's attention. The title is "On the Relationship between Qi and the Human Body." ”
At the beginning of the above paragraph, it is written: "The momentum constitutes the basic substance of the human body, and the movement and change of qi constitute the life activities of the human body." In the ancient "Jingyue Quanshu", it is mentioned that "the life of a person depends on this qi", and it is also mentioned in the "Medical Law" that "qi is formed when it gathers, and it is formed when it disperses". The ancient family Wen Tianxiang's righteous qi song begins with words: "Heaven and earth have righteousness, and miscellaneous manifolds are endowed with manifolds." The lower part is the river mountain, and the upper part is the sun star. ”
What exactly is qi? In the Taoist book "Hug Puzi", there is also such a description: "The lady is in the qi, and the qi is in the people." From heaven and earth to all things, there is no need for anger to live, and those who do good deeds are to maintain health inside, and to eliminate evil outside. However, the people do not know what to do with it. ”
People don't know that there are many words and phrases about qi in our lives, including air, weather, oxygen, fire, heat, cold, anger, temper, blood, backbone, etc... It's all angry!
There seems to be some truth, Ma Guocai became interested in this article, I have always heard people say qigong qigong, what is qi, have been passed on by people to be divine, I don't understand what qi is, and even rose to the height of aura?
Ma Guocai couldn't help but start savoring this article!
In the human body, qi is explained by modern science, human cells are tens of thousands of biological factories, people want to move, they need to extract energy from it, and the energy generated, we probably call it qi, which contains biological energy, heat energy, electrical energy and so on. It is transported through the body's meridians, and without this energy, the cells will lack vitality.
In traditional Chinese medicine, there is a saying that "qi is the handsome of blood, blood is the mother of qi, and qi is bloody", which also shows the importance of qi to the human body.
The formation of the meridian theory may have been based on blood vessels at first, guided by the five behaviors of yin and yang, and then abstractly summarized. Most of the meridians are connected to certain acupuncture points, and acupuncture points can be said to be special parts of the meridian qi and blood reaching the body surface, from the clinical process of acupuncture, the action point is the acupuncture point, through the stimulation of the acupuncture point, it plays the role of dredging qi and blood, adjusting the function of the viscera, and producing phenomena such as meridian transmission.
Qi is the handsome of blood, which refers to the role of qi in promoting, controlling and metaplasiaizing blood. Qi is yang is the driving force, and blood is yin is the foundation. Qi and blood are also good, qi deficiency and blood are also deficient, qi stagnation and blood are also stagnant, spleen qi deficiency is blood loss and overflow, and qi and fire are forced to blood and vent in vain.
Blood is the mother of qi, and it is said that blood can carry qi and nourish qi. Blood is the carrier of qi, which exists in the blood, and is attached to the blood so that it will not be scattered, and then follows the blood to carry it to the whole body. Blood can also continuously provide nutrients for the operation of qi, achieving the effect of nourishing qi.
Reading this article carefully, if I have a clear understanding in my heart, the word qigong suddenly lifts its mystery, and there is no ethereal and incomprehensible taste that I imagined before.
Ma Guocai couldn't help but think of a scene he once saw in a martial arts movie, about star sucking ** or similar evil skills, people who have been sucked into power or yang energy have become skin and bones, and their faces are pale, it turns out that this is really a bit of a theoretical basis! If this person is gone, won't it become like this?
Read on, and the following is about breathing!
In ancient times, man was compared to a small universe, believing that man was born from the qi of heaven and earth, chewing grains and grains to nourish his body, and the earth was born by eating the qi of yin and yang. The eyes and ears are the sun and the moon, and the flesh is the wind and rain. The sky has nine layers, people have nine holes, the sky has 24 solar terms, people have 24 ribs, the sky has four seasons, people have limbs, the four seasons have five elements, people have five senses, five organs, five sounds, five fingers...... If we continue to list, this kind of correspondence and comparison can be said to abound.
"Pipes: Water and Land" says: "The water is the blood and qi of the earth, like the flow of the tendons and veins", which means that the water is compared to the same tendons and veins. In addition to comparing rivers to veins, other things in nature also correspond to the human body one-to-one - mountains are bones, soil is muscles, plants are hair, oil is bone marrow, and holes in mountains and rivers are the nine orifices of the human body. The nine orifices are two ears, two eyes, two noses, one mouth, one front yin, and one back yin. The holes in the mountains and rivers are used to exchange earth qi and play a metabolic function, and the human body also has this function.
Breathing is a qi refining technique in qigong, and breathing is breathing, and breathing includes external breathing and internal breathing. External respiration refers to the exchange of gases between the outside air and blood in the lungs, also known as pulmonary exhalation. The so-called internal respiration is the exchange of gases between blood and tissue cells, also known as tissue respiration. Qigong breathing mainly adjusts the breathing of the lungs, so that it can reach the even, slow and deep degree described by the ancients as "exhaling only fine, accepting only continuous". This, in turn, has a good effect on internal respiration.
Ma Guocai put down the magazine and worked on it for a long time, and it turned out that qigong was like this.
Finally, the article also introduces that in ancient times, qigong was divided into four major levels, practicing refining qi (through small Zhoutian), refining qi and transforming gods (through great Zhoutian, out of yin gods), refining gods and transforming voids (yang gods), and refining voids and combining the Tao (immortals).
After reading the whole article, Ma Guocai couldn't help but think of the qigong books he had read before and had a deeper understanding, your sister, many of them are abridged versions! You think qigong is a forbidden h book, and it is also abridged, and the whole article is how to practice, how to practice, how to practice, and how to practice Mao! No wonder modern people regard this thing as a lie.
Having said that, Ma Guocai became interested in practicing qigong again, because he understood that qigong is not fictional, it really exists, and the human body itself has the existence of qi, which runs naturally in the body, just like blood and oxygen! If you don't understand what kind of existence qi is, and don't believe in the existence of qi, let alone qigong.
Although it is not as described in the novel, it does not matter the level possibilities mentioned later, and it does not matter whether it is true or false, but it is also good to have a good body, and after the big and small Zhou Tiantong is passed, he can basically avoid all diseases and have a healthy body. However, it is said that it can also increase the stamina of a certain area!
Ma Guocai had a new understanding of qigong and decided to pick up the sleep gong that had always been regarded as a sleep ** before! Lying on the bed, calming down his mood and breathing, there were still some thoughts popping up in his brain, but when he thought of some things that had happened recently, and what he had just seen and heard in the hospital, and when he thought of the newborn child, he had a deeper understanding of life in the depths of his heart! Human life is the foundation, and qi constitutes matter, and only by mastering qi can we master our own life.
Gradually, the mind became firmer, all the thoughts were gradually left behind, the previous impetuousness slowly disappeared, the mentality began to calm down, and the heart only understood the breath, read the dantian, and felt the expansion and contraction of qi and blood between breathing and breathing, what to think about, to feel the pulse of their own life.
I don't know when, he seems to have entered a state, he can still hear the sounds outside, but those sounds no longer seem to be able to fluctuate his heartstrings, occasionally there are still distracting thoughts, but it is like a wave in the water, his heart is like a rock, can no longer shake his mind, the whole person's mind only stays in the dantian, and the breathing becomes slow and long, as if it takes a long time to breathe.
I don't know how long it took to be in a trance, my body felt like lying on the clouds, this feeling of comfort, its wonderful feeling is really impossible to describe in words. It's like a thousand hands massaging your cells, or like the whole body is completely relaxed, and you get into a sense of weightlessness, which is really addictive.
I don't know how long it took him to wake up from this state, took the mobile phone on the bedside and looked at it, only to be surprised to find that it was almost five o'clock in the morning the next day.
He couldn't help but think of a sentence he once mentioned in his sleep exercise: "Hide its use, breathe deeply." The white clouds lie down, and the world is ignorant. That is to say, in the state just now, breathing deep and long, like lying on a white cloud, at ease, as if all the troubles of the world have disappeared.
When I got up from the hospital bed, I felt that my body was very relaxed, and the groggy feeling in my head before was not so obvious. Uhh
Although there is no sense of qi mentioned in the book, Ma Guocai firmly believes that as long as he insists on practicing, it will always appear. Because, in his heart, he firmly believes in the existence of qigong.
The first time he experienced the feeling of qigong, it really made him feel comfortable and a little excited! The whole life, the whole future, seemed to be full of passion again. Dreams for years, things that have been curious for years, today, finally have a breakthrough, a new, good start.
He is confident that in the future, he will definitely practice qi!
There is a faint goal in my heart, it is said that when qigong reaches the state of fetal breath, it can be rejuvenated. What a stinky fart at that time, I saw people who were about my age, all of them were full of wrinkles, their limbs were fat, and their bodies were out of shape. And my brother is still young, and when the time comes for the class reunion, wahaha...... He can say, "Brother, how old is your daughter, when will you introduce it to me!"
At the end of my heart, I can't help but feel a little contempt for my character, it's really a bad taste!
was in a good mood, and couldn't help humming this song Li Lifen's "Smug Smile".
"I smiled proudly, smiled proudly, and laughed at the immortality of Hongchen people......"
