Firstly, the Jing Luo is carrier of the Qi
and Xue (blood) throughout the entire body. It
is the acupuncturist's skill that identifies the
changes of these influences and their relative
state of depletion and repletion at specific
organs or locations throughout the body. The
effect this imposes on the patient is reflected
as the real presenting symptoms that the
practitioner needs to identify and
treat.
Ling Shu Ch
10:- "The major channels decide life and death.
They are the dwelling of one hundred diseases,
but also the harmonizer of hollowness
(deficiency) and solidity (excess). One can not
treat if they are not understood."
Secondly, this
chapter is concerned with the interior/ exterior
communication that the network provides. "They
manage and nourish that which moves in the body,
flow to the five Zang (viscera) internally and
divide between the six Fu (bowels)
externally."
Not only is
there a communication between the interior Zang
and the exterior Fu, but also a connection to
the caves or acuhole (shue) that allow the
practitioner to access all depths of the
organism in applying their treatment.
