Commentary states: Harmonizing with the natural harmony of Heaven and consuming the virtue generated by Earth are both manifestations of Yin and Yang. However, Yang manifests as Qi (vital energy), while Yin manifests as Blood; Qi functions as Wei (defensive energy), and Blood functions as Ying (nutritive energy). Qi and Wei, Blood and Ying, penetrate the entire body, circulating repeatedly like a ring without beginning or end. How could they be stagnant and blocked without flowing! It is merely because daily activities and rest lose their regularity, allowing pathogenic factors to take advantage of the gap, often without people realizing it. This is why the three pathogenic factors of Wind, Cold, and Dampness mix together to form Bi syndrome (obstruction syndrome). If shallow, the pathogens lodge in the skin and muscles; if deep, they remain in the bone marrow. Those with abundant Yang have Qi and Blood that flow and scatter without constancy; those with abundant Yin have Qi and Blood that coagulate, stagnate, and adhere to fixed locations. Although the symptoms vary greatly, by investigating these three pathogenic factors, the so-called Bi syndrome can be understood. Moreover, Bi syndrome harms the body. As a disease, it may initially seem unworthy of treatment, but once it spreads and becomes difficult to manage, it leads to hemiplegia where one side cannot be lifted, and limbs become unresponsive. These are all troubles brought upon oneself. Can one not be cautious!

Commentary states: The *Neijing* (Inner Canon) states that the mixing of Wind, Cold, and Dampness forms Bi syndrome. It also says: encountering these factors in spring results in Jin Bi (Sinew Bi). Furthermore: if Jin Bi does not resolve and is exposed to pathogens again, it internally resides in the Liver. Generally, each Zang organ has a corresponding external association; when a disease persists for a long time, it internally resides in its associated organ. The Liver associates with Sinews; therefore, if Jin Bi does not resolve and is exposed to pathogens again, it resides in the Liver. Its symptoms include waking with fright during sleep, excessive thirst with frequent urination, and upper body pulling sensations resembling pregnancy.
