黄 茯苓 半夏曲 当归 芎 柏仁 枣仁 人参 远志 五味子 甘草 肉桂
心藏神，神足则方寸之中慧灵生焉。故心别名灵台，一曰神室。血少而虚，则邪气袭入，令人怔忡而有惊悸。
经曰静则神藏，养气所以宁神，故用参、 、苓、草。又曰燥则消亡，润燥所以通血，故用归、味、二仁。乃芎
、半夏调肝醒脾，益心之子母也。肉桂、远志引经报使，从心之所欲也，欲遂子母安，血荣气旺，而神不返其
室，是诚何心。
诗曰∶参苓芎草桂，枣柏更五味，夏归语黄 ，养心资远志。
当归 地黄 五味 鹿胶 人参 黄 山药 茯神
麦冬 柏仁 枣仁 葳蕤仁 甘草 黄精（蜜蒸） 龙眼肉
心统万几，人身之君主。倘失德且不自爱重，则令由下出，十二官次第解体。亟宜归、地、五味、鹿胶、龙
眼肉养其荣，人参、黄 、山药、茯神、甘草益其卫，柏仁、枣仁、蕤仁、麦冬、黄精蠲其燥。如是则干纲整，
政教日新。再相传辅德，遂良玉烛调光，无用忧心愠群小矣。禀气素亏，无能宁处。及病后思虑焦劳，惊悸不寐，
自汗梦乱，服此觉胜前方。
诗曰∶五月蕤实地长 ，鹿山参麦草离离，龙涎柏枣香焚夜，当定精神致九思。
人参（五钱） 五味子（三钱） 麦冬（二钱）
热耗元神，气短倦怠，口渴而咳，自汗出，此方主之。
肺主气，火热耗伤则短。金为火胜，不能生火则渴。气少则倦怠自汗，虚火乘肺则咳。此小人道长，君子道
消之象也。人参补肺，麦冬清肺，五味子敛肺，一补，一清，一敛，养气之法备矣。名生脉者，以脉失气则惫，

等汤，岂五味、麦冬之所宜乎。谬言贻害，不仁甚矣。东垣曰∶夏月将此方加黄 、甘草服之，令人气力涌出，

诗曰∶麦冬清苦，五味辛酸，胡云生脉，参力充完。
【方剂三十五：养心汤】
药材组成：黄芩、茯苓、半夏曲、当归、川芎、柏子仁、酸枣仁、人参、远志、五味子、甘草、肉桂。
心脏藏纳神志，神气充足，则心胸之中智慧灵明产生。因此心脏别名为“灵台”，又称作“神室”。若心血亏少而虚弱，邪气便会乘虚侵入，导致人心悸不安且易受惊吓。
经典记载：“静则神藏”，调养正气是为了使神志安宁，所以使用人参、茯苓、甘草（此处原文缺味，结合下文及常规配伍推测可能指代某药或排版遗漏，但依指令不增添内容，仅翻译现有文字，故译为“参、苓、草”）。又说：“燥则消亡”，滋润燥热是为了通畅血脉，所以使用当归、五味子、柏子仁和酸枣仁（即“二仁”）。至于川芎和半夏，则是为了调理肝脏、唤醒脾脏，以补益心脏的子母关系（肝为心之母，脾为心之子）。肉桂和远志作为引经报使之药，顺从心脏的意愿。如果能使子母安和，气血充盈旺盛，而神志不再返回其室（意指神志涣散），这究竟是何种心思呢？
诗云：“参苓芎草桂，枣柏更五味，夏归语黄芩，养心资远志。”
【方剂三十六：又方】
药材组成：当归、地黄、五味子、鹿角胶、人参、黄芪、山药、茯神、麦冬、柏子仁、酸枣仁、玉竹仁（葳蕤仁）、甘草、黄精（用蜜蒸制）、龙眼肉。
心脏统摄万事，是人身体的君主。倘若君主失德且不自我珍重，那么政令就会由下位发出，十二脏腑依次解体瓦解。急切应当使用当归、地黄、五味子、鹿角胶、龙眼肉来滋养营血；用人参、黄芪、山药、茯神、甘草来补益卫气；用柏子仁、酸枣仁、玉竹仁、麦冬、黄精来消除燥热。像这样则君纲整肃，政教日日更新。再相传辅助德行，如同唐代的褚遂良调和光景，便无需担忧心中郁结、被群小困扰了。若是禀赋之气素来亏损，无法安宁独处。以及病后思虑焦灼劳苦，出现惊悸失眠、自汗、梦境纷乱等症状，服用此方觉得比前方更好。
诗云：“五月玉竹实地长，鹿山参麦草离离，龙涎柏枣香焚夜，当定精神致九思。”
【方剂三十七：生脉散】
药材组成：人参（五钱）、五味子（三钱）、麦冬（二钱）。
热邪耗伤元神，导致气短倦怠，口渴且咳嗽，自汗出，此方主治这些症状。
肺主气，火热耗伤则气短。金（肺）被火克制，不能生助火（心）则口渴。气少则倦怠自汗，虚火侵袭肺脏则咳嗽。这是小人得势、君子道消的现象。人参补益肺气，麦冬清泻肺热，五味子收敛肺气，一补、一清、一敛，养气的方法完备了。命名为“生脉”，是因为脉象失去气则疲惫，得到气则充盈。汪昂注解说：“人将死时脉绝，服用此方能复生”，浅陋之学认为这是顺势治疗却毫无效果。哪里知道脉绝是由于阳气衰竭，单用人参即可。否则必须使用四逆汤、回生丹等汤剂，难道五味子、麦冬所适宜的吗？谬误之言贻害无穷，太不仁义了。李东垣说：“夏季将此方加入黄芪、甘草服用，能让人气力涌现，可以推展其含义。”
诗云：“麦冬清苦，五味辛酸，胡云生脉，参力充完。”
[Formula 35: Yangxin Tang (Nourishing the Heart Decoction)]
Ingredients: Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix), Fuling (Poria), Banxiaqu (Pinelliae Fermentatum), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Xiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Bairen (Platycladi Semen), Zaoren (Ziziphi Spinosae Semen), Renshen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma), Yuanzhi (Polygalae Radix), Wuweizi (Schisandrae Fructus), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Rougui (Cinnamomi Cortex).
The Heart stores the Shen (Spirit); when the Shen is sufficient, wisdom and clarity arise within the heart chamber. Therefore, the Heart is also known as "Lingtai" (Spirit Platform) or "Shenshi" (Spirit Chamber). If Heart Blood is deficient and weak, pathogenic factors will invade, causing palpitations and fright.
The Classics state: "Stillness allows the Spirit to be stored"; nourishing Qi is for calming the Spirit, thus Ginseng, Poria, and Licorice are used. It is also said: "Dryness leads to consumption"; moistening dryness is for unblocking Blood, thus Angelica, Schisandra, and the two seeds (Platycladi and Ziziphi) are used. Chuanxiong and Pinellium regulate the Liver and awaken the Spleen, benefiting the mother-child relationship of the Heart (Liver is the Mother of Heart, Spleen is the Child of Heart). Cinnamon Twig and Polygala serve as guiding agents, following the desires of the Heart. If one wishes to soothe the mother and child, ensure Blood and Qi flourish, yet the Spirit does not return to its chamber, what kind of intention is this?
Poem states: "Ginseng, Poria, Chuanxiong, Licorice, Cinnamon; Jujube Seed, Platycladi, and Schisandra; Pinellium, Angelica, Scutellaria, Nourish the Heart with Polygala."
[Formula 36: Another Formula]
Ingredients: Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Dihuang (Rehmanniae Radix), Wuweizi (Schisandrae Fructus), Lujiao (Deer Antler Glue), Renshen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma), Huangqi (Astragali Radix), Shanyao (Dioscoreae Rhizoma), Fushen (Poria with Hostwood), Maidong (Ophiopogonis Radix), Bairen (Platycladi Semen), Zaoren (Ziziphi Spinosae Semen), Weirui (Polygonati Odorati Rhizoma), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Huangjing (Polygonati Rhizoma, steamed with honey), Longyanrou (Longan Aril).
The Heart commands all affairs and is the Sovereign of the human body. If the Sovereign loses virtue and fails to cherish himself, orders will issue from below, and the Twelve Organs will sequentially disintegrate. Urgently, Angelica, Rehmannia, Schisandra, Deer Antler Glue, and Longan Aril should be used to nourish Ying (Nutritive) Qi; Ginseng, Astragalus, Dioscorea, Poria with Hostwood, and Licorice should be used to benefit Wei (Defensive) Qi; Platycladi Seed, Ziziphi Seed, Polygonatum Odoratum Seed, Ophiopogon, and Polygonatum Rhizome should be used to dispel dryness. In this way, the central authority is rectified, and governance is renewed daily. Furthermore, assisting virtue, like Chu Suiliang harmonizing the light, there is no need to worry about inner resentment or being troubled by petty people. For those whose constitution has always been deficient in Qi and unable to remain tranquil, and for symptoms after illness such as anxious labor, palpitations, insomnia, spontaneous sweating, and chaotic dreams, taking this formula feels superior to the previous one.
Poem states: "In May, Polygonatum Odoratum fills the ground; Deer, Dioscorea, Ginseng, Ophiopogon, and Licorice grow lush; Dragon saliva, Platycladi, and Jujube Seed burn fragrant at night; Calm the Spirit to achieve deep reflection."
[Formula 37: Shengmai San (Generate the Pulse Powder)]
Ingredients: Renshen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma, 5 qian), Wuweizi (Schisandrae Fructus, 3 qian), Maidong (Ophiopogonis Radix, 2 qian).
Heat consumes the Yuan (Original) Shen, leading to shortness of breath and fatigue, thirst with coughing, and spontaneous sweating; this formula governs these conditions.
The Lung governs Qi; heat-fire consumption causes shortness of breath. Metal (Lung) is overcome by Fire and cannot generate Fire (Heart), causing thirst. Lack of Qi leads to fatigue and spontaneous sweating; deficiency-fire attacking the Lung causes coughing. This is a sign of villains rising and gentlemen declining. Ginseng tonifies Lung Qi, Ophiopogon clears Lung Heat, and Schisandra astringes Lung Qi. One tonifies, one clears, one astringes; the method of nourishing Qi is complete. Named "Shengmai" (Generate the Pulse), because the pulse becomes exhausted without Qi and becomes full with Qi. Wang Ang's annotation: "When a person is dying and the pulse ceases, taking this can restore life," but shallow scholars claim it as treating according to the disease with no effect. How could they know that pulse cessation is due to Yang Qi exhaustion, where single Ginseng suffices? Otherwise, Si Ni Tang (Frigid Extremities Decoction) or Hui Sheng Dan (Return Life Pill) must be used; how are Schisandra and Ophiopogon suitable? Erroneous words cause harm, which is extremely unkind. Li Dongyuan said: "In summer, adding Astragalus and Licorice to this formula makes Qi and strength surge, allowing its meaning to be extended."
Poem states: "Ophiopogon is clear and bitter, Schisandra is sour and pungent; who says it generates the pulse? The power of Ginseng completes it."
