人身之有经络，犹地理之有界分。治病不知经络，犹捕盗不知界分，其能无诛伐无
过之咎乎？岐黄问答，以经络为主，惟经络一明，然后知症，见何经用何经之药以治之，
了然无谬。如古之善射御者，自有得心应手之妙焉。
陀云∶痈疽之作，其行也有处，其主也有归。如心之发于喉舌，肺之发于皮肤，脾
之发于肌肉，肝之发于筋肋，肾之发于骨髓是也。阴毒发于下，阳毒发于上，腑之发于
外，脏之发于内。发于下者得之缓，发于上者得之速，感于腑者易治，感于脏者难疗。故
内曰坏，外曰溃，上曰从，下曰逆。近骨者多冷，久而不愈，化血生虫，虫则多痒少疼，
或先痒后疼。近肤者多热，久而不愈，传气成漏，漏则多疼少痒，或不疼不痒。发于虚
处者多险，发于节而相应者不治。（应为内外通溃也。）

The meridians of the human body are like geographical boundaries. Treating diseases without understanding the meridians is like catching thieves without knowing their operational areas; how can one avoid the fault of punishing the innocent (damaging healthy Qi)? In the dialogues between Qibo and Huangdi, the meridians are central. Only by clarifying the meridians can one know which disease belongs to which meridian and use the herbs corresponding to that meridian for treatment, thereby achieving clarity and avoiding errors. This is akin to the ancient masters of archery and charioteering, who naturally achieved the wonder of ease and proficiency.
The Buddha said: The manifestation of carbuncles and sores has specific locations and meridian affiliations. For example, heart meridian disorders manifest in the throat and tongue; lung meridian disorders manifest in the skin; spleen meridian disorders manifest in the muscles; liver meridian disorders manifest in the tendons and ribs; kidney meridian disorders manifest in the bones and marrow. Yin toxic manifestations occur in the lower part, while Yang toxic manifestations occur in the upper part; fu-organ disorders manifest externally, and zang-organ disorders manifest internally. Manifestations in the lower part develop slowly, while those in the upper part develop rapidly; infections of the fu organs are easy to treat, whereas infections of the zang organs are difficult to cure. Therefore, internal involvement is termed "ruin," external involvement is termed "ulceration," upward progression is termed "compliant" (favorable), and downward regression is termed "rebellious" (unfavorable). Lesions near the bone often present with coldness; if prolonged and unhealed, they may transform blood into parasites, causing itching more than pain, or itching followed by pain. Lesions near the skin often present with heat; if prolonged and unhealed, they may transmit qi to form fistulas, which cause pain more than itching, or neither pain nor itching. Manifestations in deficient areas are generally perilous, while manifestations at joints that correspond bilaterally are typically incurable. (Note: The original text suggests this should be interpreted as mutual ulceration inside and out.)
