A Theoretical Study On "Feng" In Chinese Medicine

The Feng,in Chinese language means wind.This is a concept which is widely used nearly in every aspect of Chinese Medical Sciences for its unique theory constructing method.There are 3 phases of the concept evolution in the history of Chinese Medicine.The first step tracing back into the history of early hieroglyph,which should be the very origin of Feng in the literature history.The sacred art of diving in early Yin Dynasty seems take "Feng" as something related with direction and seasons.It must be a long way of forming the really medicine sciences before Han Dynasty. finally declared the birth of Chinese Medicine theory.The masterpiece proved another step of the concept.Apparently it is a medical papers congregation of its time.For,as an instance,there are some different Feng theories in the very same book.Feng,the very simple concept now get the meaning of etiological factor,the pathological procedure,so on and so on.This book has influenced the another 1000 years.Song Dynasty is the beginning of the third phase.Theory and concept slightly changed during the long period of clinic practice.Some even more interesting ideas has been invented after the People's Republic,which was founded almost 60 years ago.The Qi-Hua theory means the transformation of the world and Shu-Shu is the very framework of the changing.There are 3 main theories concening about Feng in Chinese Medicine.The Ba-Feng theory is an application instance of I-Ching which you can find the detailed content in .This is the cosmology of I-Ching which centers on the ideas of the dynamic balance of opposites,the evolution of events as a process,and acceptance of the inevitability of change.Feng here stands for a really natural existence and a movement pattern.With the help of I-Ching,the comprehension of directions and its characteristic can be much clearer.Wind from different directions is always associated with the trigram property.Of course the human body is also believed to be constructed by the principle of I-Ching,which is why the wind is likely to invade some special part of the body.Eight kinds of Feng from eight directions and eight solar terms influence the eight parts of the human body. There is no doubt that Ba-Feng is the deduction of Eight Trigrams cosmology. Feng in such a system means wind and disease factor,or even the name of symptoms.The Wu-Xing theory tries to classify the world as five different while corresponding parts,it defines data on the basis of the inductive and synthetic mode of cognition.Chinese Medicine constructed its micro-world by this theory.Chinese medicine inherited the tradition of Shu-Shu which emphasized on the time rather than space.Yun-Qi theory tried explain the relation between human disease and the weather change,it always was simplified as the interaction between the outer Qi and inner Qi,The weather is just happened to link to the seasonal and yearly change.So,Yun-Qi found the smart solution to construct the framework.10 heavenly stems and 12 earthly branches have been re-classified,and each group was defined as a property of Wu Xing. Thus the 60 years,which are named after the combination of heavenly stems and earthly branches,got varied climate nature,and human diseases, general the epidemic is a natural response to the weather change.This is an instance of universal resonance.Chinese medicine also provide the varieties of treatment in the practice. This thesis have introduced the associating formulas and drugs for Feng diseases.
