Relationship between mingmen,original qi and kidney
Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)believes that mingmen,original qi and kidney are related to the origin and reproduction of life,and they all have very importent position in the TCM theory.With the continuous deepening and collision of the theoretical TCM research by doctors of different generations,the functions and relations of the three are also gradually improved with the development of the times,and new theoretical cognition had emerged.In the process of consulting the medical literature of the past dynasties,the author found that the doctors of each generation either discussed one of them,or explained the relationship between the two,but there was no very clear statement about the function,position and relationship between the three.Therefore,the author summarized the medical works of the past dynasties,and summarized the relationship between the three:mingmen and the kidney are the root of water and fire in the human body,kidney and mingmen are the root of original qi;mingmen hides the kidney essence,which is driven by the original qi and runs through the triple energizer to complete the physiological activities of the human body.The functional connection of the three can better promote the pace of TCM theory guiding practice.Kidney is a tangible viscera,but mingmen and original qi are both intangible.The essence of kidney needs to pass through mingmen and rely on original qi to play its important role.The relationship between the three better explains the thought of'tangible change to intangible,intangible change to tangible'in TCM,thus explaining the origin of life and its physiological and pathological basis.
