The Zang-Fu organs combine with the Hand and Foot Three Yin and Three Yang meridians to form the Twelve Meridians, each having its specific governance, thus they are called the "Twelve Officials." The Heart is the Official of the Sovereign, from whom Shenming (Spiritual Consciousness) arises; the Lung is the Official of the Chancellor, from whom Zhijie (Governance and Regulation) arises; the Liver is the Official of the General, from whom Moulv (Strategizing) arises; the Spleen is the Official of Remonstrance, from whom Gongzheng (Impartiality) arises; the Kidney is the Official of Strength, from whom Jiqiao (Skill and Craftsmanship) arises; the Gallbladder is the Official of Integrity, from whom Jueduan (Decision-making) arises; the Danzhong (Chest Center/Pericardium) is the Official of Envoy, from whom Xile (Joy and Pleasure) arises; the Small Intestine is the Official of Reception, from whom Huawa (Transformation of substances) arises; the Large Intestine is the Official of Transmission, from whom Bianhua (Changes) arise; the Stomach is the Official of Granaries, from whom Wuwei (Five Flavors) arise; the Sanjiao (Triple Burner) is the Official of Ditches, from whom Shuidao (Water passages) arise; the Bladder is the Official of the Prefecture, where Jin Ye (Body Fluids) are stored, and only through Qihua (Qi transformation) can they be excreted. Therefore, the Five Zang organs belong to Yin, and the Six Fu organs belong to Yang. The functions of these Twelve Officials must not fail each other; this is precisely due to the waxing and waning of Yin and Yang. One should nourish them according to the four seasons, avoiding excessive dominance of any one aspect. If there is excessive dominance, it leads to compensatory reversal; if there is compensatory reversal, it leads to partial harm. Through winning and overcoming transformations, true disease arises. The concepts of Yin-Xu (Deficiency) and Yang-Shi (Excess) refer to the mutual winning and reversing among Zang-Fu organs. If there is a mother-son relationship, Mother deficiency causes Son deficiency, and Son excess causes Mother excess. The Classic states: For excess conditions, drain the Mother; for deficiency conditions, tonify the Son. For example, if the Liver is in excess, drain the Kidney; if the Liver is deficient, tonify the Heart. Just as when the people are sufficient, how could the ruler be insufficient? This is the original intent of the Classic. The Nan Jing offers the opposite view, but observing the discussions in the Jin Gui Yao Lue, the correct aspects are numerous. For Liver deficiency, use sour flavors to tonify, assist with scorched bitter flavors, and benefit with sweet flavors. Sour enters the Liver, scorched bitter enters the Heart, and sweet enters the Spleen. The Spleen can control the Kidney; if Kidney Qi is weak, water does not flow; if water does not flow, Heart Fire becomes abundant; if Heart Fire is abundant, Lung Metal is controlled, allowing Liver Qi to relax. When Liver Qi relaxes, Liver disease heals itself. This is the meaning of tonifying the Son. This method is used for Liver deficiency, whereas for Liver excess, it is reversed. The Qian Jin Fang also states: For Liver deficiency, tonify the Heart; when Heart is prosperous, it influences the Liver. All such cases follow this pattern. This addresses diseases arising from the cold, heat, excess, and deficiency of the Twelve Officials of the respective Zang organs, which is different from external pathogenic influences or deliberate violations of principles. However, internal causes belong solely to the interplay of the Seven Emotions, where love and aversion compete, leading to disease. By deducing and clarifying this, the theory remains concise and not excessive; students should pay close attention.
