Address for the Year of the Pig
Lunar New Year's Eve
Dear Readers, Authors, and
Editors:
Hello everyone!
We say a fond farewell to the
Year of the Dog and joyfully welcome the Year of the Pig. Life, like Chinese
medicine, recalls the past of pungent, sweet, light, sour, astringent, bitter,
and salty tastes. In the present, life can be cold, hot, warm, cool, and mild,
but in the future, life will be ascending, descending, floating, sinking, and
returning to the righteous path.
In the new year, let us come
together and strengthen our heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, gallbladder,
stomach, large intestine, small intestine, triple burner, bladder, brain,
marrow, bones, vessels, and female womb; enhance our essence, spirit
(configurative force), vital energy, blood, clear and thin body fluid, and
thick body fluid; activate our skin, flesh, veins, tendons, bones, limbs,
hundred skeletons, five senses, and nine orifices; unblock our twelve regular
meridians, twelve branches departed from the regular meridians, eight extra
channels, twelve musculature of meridians, twelve skin regions, sixteen
collaterals, capillary collaterals, and floating collaterals; regulate our
happiness, anger, worry, thought, sorrow, fear, and shock; and expel the
pathogenic wind, cold, heat, wet, dry, fire, and epidemic noxious factors;
avoid improper labor, leisure, drinking, diet, tobacco, and alcohol; and
prevent harmful insects, beasts, swords, spears, firearms, traumatic injuries,
drugs, and poison, as well as phlegm and fluid retention, blood stasis, which
hurt the human body.
"The evils can invade the
body when its vital energy is deficient." Therefore, "if the body
resistance is strong enough, the evils cannot harm the human body". As
long as we allow the body and spirit to unite, yin and yang in equilibrium, we
will be able to reach our allotted natural span of the life.
I wish you a healthy New Year!
