先师秘密传授的《神应经》,太乙通玄针法最为灵验。书中的每一句言辞都是精妙的典籍,即使花费万两黄金去学习也显得轻率(意指无价)。每次回想都不忘其多重的疗效,治病如神的情景铭记在心。进针前要在口中将针温暖,更要观察患者的脉象以审察浮沉。阴病用阳经穴,阳病用阴经穴,分明地选取阴阳穴位以获神效。虚证适宜用补法,实证适宜用泻法,当气至针下时,疾病便可断根。气至的感觉如同摆动的独龙尾巴,若气未至,应停针等待气至。凡是用行针手法,必须先懂得诀要,席弘所说的玄妙之处说得十分明白。气至不到两乳之间的大渊穴,若未感应,则针刺列缺穴。列缺穴治疗头痛及偏正头痛,重泻大渊穴没有不应验的。耳聋、气闭、喘息绵绵,想要痊愈必须寻找足三里穴。手部拘挛、脚背疼痛难忍,合谷穴仍需配合泻太冲穴。曲池穴主治手臂活动不利,针刺合谷时要仔细操作。心痛伴手颤抖取少海穴,若要除根则针刺阴市穴。如果是伤寒导致的两耳耳聋,取耳门、听会穴,疗效疾如风。五种肘部疼痛针刺尺泽穴,冷渊穴一刺便有神奇功效。手三里和足三里,能治疗食积痞块和气滞肿块。鸠尾穴单独治疗五种痫证,若针刺涌泉穴人就不会死。大凡痞块最适宜针刺,取穴方法向来需要用心寻找。用手按压痞块若无转动感,便随深浅向中心针刺。胃中有积滞取璇玑穴,足三里的功效深厚常人不知。阴陵泉穴主治胸中胀满,若针刺承山穴饮食宜畅。大椎穴若配合长强穴取用,小肠气胀立即可愈。气冲穴需妙手推寻,定能让神针被人称许。委中穴主治腰部疼痛,足膝肿胀时寻找至阴穴。干湿风毒并滞之气,玄机如此更加深奥。气攻腰痛不能站立,横骨、大都穴适宜救急。若流血攻注且注解迟缓,便会变为风证由此产生。气海穴偏能治疗五淋,若补足三里效果如神。冷热两种病症都能治疗,便浊痼疾可除根。期门穴主治伤寒病患,七日过后经气亢盛未出汗。只要在乳下双肋间,刺入四分深人体力健壮。耳内蝉鸣腰欲折断,膝下分明是三里穴。若能补泻五会穴中,切莫逢人轻易说。牙风头痛谁能调理?二间穴妙处难以逃脱。更有三间神妙穴,若治疗肩背感受风劳。合谷下针顺应气血流注,脾经内随针使气朝聚。冷病还需针合谷,只宜在脚下泻阴交穴。背脊俱疼针肩井穴,不泻三里令人胸闷。两臂和大腿都疼痛,金针一刺如圣如神。脚膝疼痛适宜委中穴,更兼拘急可用锋针施治。阴陵泉穴若寻得,轻快健步疾如飞。腰腹胀满治疗有何难,三里、肚针、承山穴同用。再向太冲穴行补泻,指头麻木一时安宁。头皮转筋鱼腹肚部位,又治疗背疽及便毒。再有妙穴阳陵泉,腿部转筋急症如神取。肠中疼痛阴陵泉滋润,耳内蝉鸣听会穴招引。再寻妙穴大溪穴,医门行泻实为高招。浮沉腹胀水分穴泻,气喘息粗泻三里穴。再于膝中阴谷穴针,小便淋漓自消尽。环跳穴能去除腿股风,冷风膝痹疟疾同治。最好风池穴寻准穴位,间使穴双刺有神功。伤寒一日调风府穴,少阳二日风池穴取。三五七日病过经,根据此针之无不应。心疼呕吐上脘穴适宜,丰隆两穴更无疑。蛔虫并出伤寒病,金针宜刺显明医。男子癖疾取少商穴,女人血气阴交穴当用。虚盗二汗须宜补,委中穴妙处可传扬。项强肿痛屈伸难,更兼体重腰背瘫。宜向束骨、三里穴取,教君顷刻便开颜。闪挫脊膂腰难转,举步多难行重蹇。偏体游风生虚浮,复溜穴一针人健羡。久患腰痛背胛劳,但寻中注穴中调。行针用心须寻觅,管取从今见识高。腰背连脐痛不休,手中三里穴堪求。神针未出急须泻,得气之时不用留。小腹便溏最难医,气海、中极、间使宜。三里更须明补泻,下针断不失毫厘。
The secret transmission from the former master, the *Shenying Jing* (Divine Response Classic), employs the Taiyi Tongxuan (Great One Penetrating Mystery) acupuncture method, which is most efficacious. Every word in it constitutes a profound classic; even ten thousand taels of gold would be insufficient to learn it. I never forget its many verified effects, keeping the divine healing in mind. Warm the needle in the mouth before insertion, and carefully observe the patient’s pulse to assess floating (superficial) or sunken (deep) qualities. For Yin disorders, use Yang meridians; for Yang disorders, use Yin meridians—clearly selecting Yin-Yang acupoints to achieve miraculous results. Deficiency syndromes require tonification, excess syndromes require sedation; when Qi arrives at the needle, the root of the disease is severed. The arrival of Qi feels like the tail of a swinging dragon; if Qi has not arrived, pause the needle and wait. Whenever manipulating the needle, one must first grasp the essential principles, as Xi Hong clearly explained these mysteries. If Qi does not reach the Dazhuan (LU22) area between the two breasts, needle Lieque (LU7). Lieque treats headaches, including lateral and frontal types; heavy sedation of Dazhuan yields no failure. For deafness, Qi obstruction, and persistent wheezing, seeking Zusanli (ST36) is necessary for recovery. For hand spasms and unbearable dorsal foot pain, Hegu (LI4) should still be combined with sedation of Taichong (LR3). Quchi (LI11) governs arm dysfunction; when needling Hegu, proceed with care. Heartache with hand tremors points to Shaohai (HT3); to eradicate the root, needle Yinshi (ST33). If bilateral deafness results from Shanghan (Cold Damage), Ermen (TE22) and Tinghui (GB2) act swiftly like wind. For five types of elbow pain, needle Chize (LU5); a single insertion into Lengyuan (SI10) yields divine efficacy. Shousanli (LI10) and Zusanli (ST36) treat food stagnation,痞块 (masses), and Qi accumulation. Jiwei (CV15) alone treats five types of epilepsy; needling Yongquan (KI1) prevents death. Generally, 痞 (fullness/masses) are best treated by acupuncture; acupoint selection requires careful attention. Press the area with your hand; if there is no movement, needle towards the center at varying depths. Gastric accumulation calls for Xuanji (CV15); the profound efficacy of Zusanli (ST36) is unknown to many. Yinlingquan (SP9) governs chest fullness; needling Chengshan (BL57) aids digestion. Combining Dazhui (GV14) with Changqiang (GV1) instantly resolves Xiao Chang Qi Man (Small Intestine Qi distension). Qichong (ST30) requires skilled palpation; assuredly, the divine needle will be praised. Weizhong (BL40) treats lower back pain; for swollen feet and knees, seek Zhiyin (BL67). Dryness, dampness, wind-toxin, and stagnant Qi follow this profound principle. Qi attacking the lower back causing inability to stand: Henggu (KI12) and Dadu (SP13) are suitable for emergency relief. If bleeding attacks and interpretation is delayed, Wind syndromes may arise. Qihai (CV6) specifically treats Wulin (five types of strangury); tonifying Zusanli (ST36) is as effective as a god. It treats both cold and heat conditions, rooting out chronic turbid discharge. Qimen (LR14) treats Shanghan patients after seven days when the meridian phase has passed and hyperactivity persists without sweating. Between the ribs below the nipples, inserting four fen deep restores strength. Tinnitus like cicadas and waist feeling like breaking: clearly, this refers to Zusanli (ST36). If tonification and sedation are applied to Wuhui (CV13), do not easily share this knowledge. Who can regulate tooth-wind headache? Erjian (LI2) is indispensable. Sanjian (LI3) is also miraculous for shoulder and back wind-lao (chronic strain). Needling Hegu follows the flow of Qi; within the Spleen meridian, guide Qi to converge. Cold diseases require needling Hegu; only sedation of Yinjiao (KI7) on the foot is appropriate. General back and spine pain: needle Jianjing (GB21); failing to sedate Zusanli causes chest stuffiness. Pain in both arms and thighs: a golden needle acts like a sage. For foot and knee pain, Weizhong is suitable; for spasms, apply the Fengzhen (sharp needle). Finding Yinlingquan allows light steps faster than flying. How difficult is it to treat lower back and abdominal fullness? Combine Zusanli, abdominal points, and Chengshan. Further apply tonification/sedation to Taichong; finger numbness disappears instantly. Scalp muscle twitching in the Yufuli region also treats back carbuncles and groin abscesses. Another excellent point is Yanglingquan (GB34), taking divine effect for leg cramps. Intestinal pain is moistened by Yinlingquan; tinnitus is summoned by Tinghui. Seek the excellent point Daxi (KI4); in medical practice, sedation is superior. For floating and sunken abdominal distension, sedate Shuifen (CV9); for rapid breathing and coarse qi, sedate Zusanli. Needle Yingu (KI10) in the knee; dripping urine vanishes naturally. Huantiao (GB30) removes thigh and leg wind; it treats cold wind knee bi, malaria, etc. The best point to find accurately is Fengchi (GB20); double insertion into Jianshi (PC5) yields divine power. On the first day of Shanghan, regulate Fengfu (GV16); on the second day of Shaoyang, select Fengchi. After three, five, or seven days when the meridian phase has passed, following this acupuncture ensures no failure. Heartache and vomiting: Shangwan (CV13) is suitable; Fenglong (ST40) leaves no doubt. Ascaris expulsion in Shanghan: golden needles should be used, revealing the wise physician. For men’s 癖 (masses), select Shaoshang (LU11); for women’s blood and Qi issues, Yinjiao is indicated. For deficiency and night sweats, tonification is required; Weizhong’s excellence is spread far. Neck stiffness, swelling, pain, difficulty bending/extending, accompanied by heavy body and back paralysis: select Shugu (BL65) and Zusanli, bringing immediate joy to you. Sprain or injury to the spine and waist making turning difficult, walking heavily and painfully: generalized wandering wind causing edema; a single needle into Fuliu (KI7) brings admiration. Chronic lower back pain and scapular strain: seek Zhongzhu (GB25) for regulation. Carefully search while manipulating the needle; assuredly, your insight will improve from now on. Unceasing pain connecting lower back, back, and navel: Shousanli is sought. Before the divine needle emerges, urgent sedation is needed; once Qi arrives, do not retain. Hard-to-treat lower abdominal constipation: Qihai, Zhongji (CV3), and Jianshi are suitable. Clearly apply tonification/sedation to Zusanli; needle insertion must not deviate by a hair’s breadth.
