Needle to a depth of 0.7 cun, retain for seven respiratory cycles, moxa 3 cones. (The commentary on *Qifu* states: At the upper border of the temporal region at the curve of the zygomatic arch; if needled too deeply, it may cause deafness.)

Needle to a depth of 0.3 cun, moxa 3 cones. (The commentary on *Qifu* states: It is the intersection of the Foot-Yangming Stomach Meridian and the Yinwei Vessel. However, upon detailed examination, the Foot-Yangming Meridian does not reach this area, nor does the Yinwei Vessel intersect with the Foot-Yangming Meridian; thus, it is suspected that the commentary on *Suwen* is incorrect.)

(The commentary on *Qifulun* states it belongs to the Hand-Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian and suggests retaining for six respiratory cycles.)
Jingming (BL1), also known as Leikong, located at the inner canthus of the eye, is the intersection of the Hand-Taiyang Small Intestine Meridian, Foot-Taiyang Bladder Meridian, and Foot-Yangming Stomach Meridian. Needle to a depth of 0.6 cun, retain for six respiratory cycles, moxa 3 cones.
