诸本无篇字。马云。内有淫邪泮衍。使人卧不得安而发梦。故名篇。
淫邪泮衍。张云。言奇邪为梦。变幻无穷也。简案、泮、散也。诗。邯风。迨冰未泮。
正邪从外袭内（止）喜梦 反淫、千金作及淫。张云。正邪者。非正风之谓。凡阴阳劳逸之感于外。
声色嗜欲之动于内。但有干于身心者。皆谓之正邪。亦无非从外袭内者也。惟其变态恍惚。未有定舍。故内淫
于脏。则于营卫魂魄。无所不乱。因令人随所感而为梦。
下甚则梦随 盛饥则梦取 甲乙。下甚、作下盛。盛饥作甚饥。马云。甚、当作盛。盛、当作甚。
肺气盛（止）飞扬 张云。肺在志为忧。故梦恐惧哭泣。肺主气。故梦飞扬。
身体重不举 甲乙。重下有手足二字。
两解不属 张云。腰为肾之府。故若腰脊不相连属。
凡此十二盛者 马云。凡此十二盛者。在腑则有余于外。在脏则有余于内。凡有梦至时。即知其邪
之在何脏腑。遂用针以泻之。其邪可立已矣。盖腑梦泻腑。脏梦泻脏也。
厥气客于心 志云。夫邪之所凑。其正必虚。上章论邪气之有余。此论正气之不足。厥气者虚气。
厥逆于脏腑之间。客者薄于脏腑之外也。
坏屋风雨 张云。脾属土。其主湿也。
梦游行 张云。膀胱为足之太阳经。属三阳之表也。马云。以膀胱经遍行头项背腰 足也。
梦田野 马云。以大肠为传导之官。其曲折广大。似田野也。志云。田野者。水谷之所生也。大肠为
传导之官。主受水谷之余。济泌别汁。止梦见田野者。大肠之气虚也。
聚邑冲衢 甲乙。冲衢、作行街。马云。梦会聚之邑居。或冲要之道衢。以小肠为受盛之官。其物
之所聚。似邑衢也。简案、冲、说文。通道也。与街同义。气冲、一名气街。可证。
自刳 张云。胆主决断。其气刚也。刳、音枯。剖腹也。

凡此十五不足者 道脏本、正脉本、十五作有数。马云。凡此十五不足者。在腑则不足于内。在脏则
不足于外。凡有梦至时。即知其邪之在何脏腑。遂用针以补之。其邪可立已矣。盖腑梦补脏。脏梦补腑也。简
案、此篇论梦。与素问脉要精微论。方盛衰论。及列子穆王篇少异。当参考。
各版本中均无“篇”字。马云认为：体内有淫邪之气泛滥，使人睡眠不安从而产生梦境，因此以此命名该篇。
淫邪之气泛滥。张云指出：这是指奇异的邪气导致做梦，变幻无穷。简案：泮，意为消散。《诗经·邶风》中有：“趁冰未消融之时。”
正邪从外部侵袭内部（此处原文有脱文或注记），容易做梦。另一版本中“反淫”写作“及淫”。张云指出：所谓正邪，并非指正统的风邪。凡是阴阳、劳逸等因素在外部对人体的影响，以及声色、嗜欲等欲望在内部对身心的扰动，只要干扰到身心，都称为正邪。这些邪气无非都是从外部侵袭内部的。正因为其变化恍惚不定，没有固定的居所，所以内淫于五脏时，就会使营卫、魂魄无所不乱，因而让人随着所感受的邪气而产生相应的梦境。
下焦邪气盛则梦见随逐之物；极度饥饿时梦见索取食物。《甲乙经》中，“下甚”写作“下盛”，“盛饥”写作“甚饥”。马云指出：“甚”应当作“盛”，“盛”应当作“甚”。
肺气盛则梦见飞翔。张云指出：肺在志为忧，所以梦见恐惧哭泣；肺主气，所以梦见飞翔。
身体沉重难以抬起。《甲乙经》中，“重”字下有“手足”二字。
腰部与脊柱分离不相连属。张云指出：腰是肾的府邸，所以如果感觉腰脊不相连属。
以上这十二种邪气有余的情况。马云指出：以上这十二种邪气有余的情况，在六腑则是外部有余，在五脏则是内部有余。每当做梦时，就可以知道邪气所在的具体脏腑，随即用针刺法进行泻法治疗，邪气可以立即消除。这就是腑病导致的梦用泻腑法，脏病导致的梦用泻脏法。
厥逆之气客居于心。志云指出：大凡邪气聚集之处，正气必然虚弱。上一章论述的是邪气的有余，本章论述的是正气的不足。厥气就是虚气，厥逆于脏腑之间；客居是指邪气迫近于脏腑之外。
梦见游行。张云指出：膀胱属于足太阳经，是三阳经的表层。马云指出：因为膀胱经遍布头、项、背、腰、足。
梦见田野。马云指出：因为大肠是传导之官，其形态曲折广大，类似田野。志云指出：田野是水谷生长的地方。大肠作为传导之官，主要接受水谷的残渣，分别清浊汁液。之所以梦见田野，是因为大肠之气虚弱。
梦见聚集的城邑和交通要道。《甲乙经》中，“冲衢”写作“行街”。马云指出：梦见聚会居住的城邑，或者交通要道的街道。因为小肠是受盛之官，其中的物体聚集，类似城邑街道。简案：冲，《说文解字》解释为通道，与街同义。气冲穴，又名气街，可以证明这一点。
梦见自刎剖开身体。张云指出：胆主决断，其气刚强。刳，音枯，意为剖腹。
梦见苑囿中的坑窖。《千金方》中写作“池渠阱”。张云指出：窞与窖同义。志云指出：窞，音教，意为地下的储藏室。简案：《考工记》注解说：穿地叫做窞，音教。洼，音乌爪切，意为凹陷。苑，怀疑是字形错误。
梦见跪拜起身。《甲乙经》中，“起”写作“跪”。
邪气客居于胞宫（或膀胱/大肠）。则梦见排泄大小便。《甲乙经》中，“泄便”写作“溲便利”。张云指出：胞，即尿脬；肠，即大肠。邪在前则梦见小便失禁，在后则梦见大便失禁。志云指出：邪客于胞则梦见前阴排尿，客于大肠则梦见后阴排便。
以上这十五种正气不足的情况。道藏本、正脉本中，“十五”写作“有数”。马云指出：以上这十五种正气不足的情况，在六腑则是内部不足，在五脏则是外部不足。每当做梦时，就可以知道邪气所在的具体脏腑，随即用针刺法进行补法治疗，邪气可以立即消除。这就是腑病导致的梦用补脏法，脏病导致的梦用补腑法。简案：本篇讨论梦境，与《素问·脉要精微论》、《方盛衰论》以及《列子·周穆王》篇略有不同，应当参考对照。
All versions lack the character "Pian" (Chapter). Ma Yun states: Inside, there is rampant Yin-Xie (abnormal pathogenic factors) spreading widely, causing restless sleep and dreams; hence the chapter name.
Rampant Yin-Xie spreading widely. Zhang Yun explains: This refers to strange pathogenic factors causing dreams, with infinite variations. Jian An notes: Pan means to scatter. The *Book of Songs* (Odes of Bin) says: "While the ice has not yet melted."
Correct pathogenic factors invading from outside into inside (textual note), prone to dreaming. Another version reads "Ji Yin" instead of "Fan Yin". Zhang Yun explains: What is called "Zheng-Xie" (Correct Pathogen) does not refer to normal wind pathogens. Any influence on the exterior regarding Yin-Yang or fatigue/exertion, and any internal movement of desires for sounds/colors or sensual cravings that interfere with the body and mind, are all termed Zheng-Xie. These non-exceptedly invade from outside into inside. Because their transformations are elusive and have no fixed abode, when they internally contaminate the Zang organs, they disrupt Ying (Nutritive Qi), Wei (Defensive Qi), Hun (Ethereal Soul), and Po (Corporeal Soul) without order, thereby causing dreams corresponding to whatever was perceived.
Excess in the lower part leads to dreaming of following/chasing; extreme hunger leads to dreaming of taking/receiving. *Jia Yi Jing* reads "Xia Sheng" (Excess in Lower) for "Xia Shen" and "Shen Ji" (Extreme Hunger) for "Sheng Ji". Ma Yun states: "Shen" should be read as "Sheng" (Excess), and "Sheng" should be read as "Shen" (Extreme).
Lung Qi excess leads to dreaming of flying. Zhang Yun explains: The Lung's emotion is sorrow, thus dreaming of fear and crying; the Lung governs Qi, thus dreaming of flying.
Body feels heavy and cannot lift. *Jia Yi Jing* adds the characters "Hand and Foot" after "Heavy".
Waist and back feel disconnected. Zhang Yun explains: The waist is the mansion of the Kidney; thus, if the waist and spine feel unconnected.
These twelve cases of Excess. Ma Yun states: Regarding these twelve cases of Excess, in the Fu organs it is excess externally, and in the Zang organs it is excess internally. Whenever a dream occurs, one can know which Zang or Fu organ harbors the pathogen, and immediately use acupuncture to drain it. The pathogen can be eliminated instantly. This is draining the Fu for Fu-dreams and draining the Zang for Zang-dreams.
Jue Qi (Rebellious Qi) lodges in the Heart. Zhi Yun explains: Wherever pathogenic factors gather, Correct Qi must be deficient. The previous chapter discussed the excess of pathogenic factors; this chapter discusses the deficiency of Correct Qi. Jue Qi is deficient Qi, rebelling between the Zang and Fu organs; "Ke" (lodging) means pressing against the exterior of the Zang and Fu organs.
Dreaming of ruined houses and wind/rain. Zhang Yun explains: The Spleen belongs to Earth and governs Dampness.
Dreaming of wandering/traveling. Zhang Yun explains: The Bladder belongs to the Foot-Taiyang Meridian, which is the exterior of the Three Yang meridians. Ma Yun explains: Since the Bladder meridian runs through the head, neck, back, waist, and feet...
Dreaming of fields. Ma Yun explains: The Large Intestine is the official of transmission; its twists and vastness resemble fields. Zhi Yun explains: Fields are where grain and water grow. The Large Intestine, as the official of transmission, receives residues of food and water, separating clear fluids from turbid ones. Dreaming of fields indicates deficiency of Large Intestine Qi.
Dreaming of gathering towns and thoroughfares. *Jia Yi Jing* reads "Xing Jie" (Walking Street) for "Chong Qu". Ma Yun explains: Dreaming of gathering towns or important thoroughfares. Since the Small Intestine is the official of reception, where substances gather, it resembles towns and streets. Jian An notes: Chong, according to *Shuo Wen*, means a passage, synonymous with street. Qichong acupoint is also named Qijie, which confirms this.
Dreaming of self-mutilation/cutting open. Zhang Yun explains: The Gallbladder governs decision-making and its Qi is rigid. Ku (cut open), pronounced Ku, means to disembowel.
Dreaming of gardens/pits. *Qian Jin Fang* reads "Chi Qu Xing" (Ponds, Channels, Traps). Zhang Yun explains: Dan is synonymous with Jiao (cellar). Zhi Yun explains: Dan, pronounced Jiao, means an underground storage place. Jian An notes: *Kaogong Ji* commentary states: Digging earth is called Dan, pronounced Jiao. Wa, pronounced Wu-Zhao-Qie, means concave. Yuan (Garden) is suspected to be a textual error.
Dreaming of bowing and rising/kneeling. *Jia Yi Jing* reads "Gui" (Kneel) for "Qi" (Rise).
Pathogen lodging in the Bao (Uterus/Bladder) leads to dreaming of excreting urine and feces. *Jia Yi Jing* reads "Sou Bian Li" (Smooth Urination and Defecation) for "Xie Bian". Zhang Yun explains: Bao is the urinary bladder; Chang is the Large Intestine. If lodged anteriorly, one dreams of urinating; if posteriorly, one dreams of defecating. Zhi Yun explains: Lodging in the Bao leads to dreaming of anterior urination; lodging in the Large Intestine leads to dreaming of posterior defecation.
These fifteen cases of Deficiency. Daozang Ben and Zhengmai Ben read "You Shu" (Has Number) for "Shi Wu" (Fifteen). Ma Yun states: Regarding these fifteen cases of Deficiency, in the Fu organs it is deficiency internally, and in the Zang organs it is deficiency externally. Whenever a dream occurs, one can know which Zang or Fu organ harbors the pathogen, and immediately use acupuncture to tonify it. The pathogen can be eliminated instantly. This is tonifying the Zang for Fu-dreams and tonifying the Fu for Zang-dreams. Jian An notes: This chapter on dreams differs slightly from *Su Wen: Mai Yao Jing Wei Lun*, *Fang Sheng Shuai Lun*, and *Lie Zi: Mu Wang Pian*; they should be cross-referenced.
