《黄帝内经》中的易学象数学--兼论医、《易》思维理路之异同

<黄帝内经>中有丰富的<易>学象数学内容.<内经>吸纳<易>学的"三才"之道,作为其理论建构的基础,蕴含着天人同构、天人之气相通的"天人合一"理念.天人相应是通过动态的阴阳的消息、四时的更替、五行的运转、八风的常正转换、及五运六气的运行来具体展现的.医、<易>皆注重"时"的作用,但<内经>更注重五行之间的生克制化,而<易>则更重阴阳之间的对待与流行.<内经>理论与八卦"卦气"说有内在的联系.医、<易>皆注重天人合一,但前者更注重人与天的自然的合一,注重天地自然对人的生理病理的影响,而后者注重本天道以立人道,开天文以立人文,充满着浓郁的人文关怀.两种"天人合一"的思维理路非但没有根本的矛盾,而且具有内在的联系.人类可以同时追求人与天的自然的与人文的合一.

Image-numberology of the Yi learning conceived in The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine--simultaneously on the similarities and dissimilarities between the theories of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Yi learning

The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine conceives abundant image-number contents of the Yi learning. The Internal Medicine takes in the theory of the unity of the heaven, earth and human from the Yi learning as its theoretic basis. Human's responses to the heaven are realized through the waxing and waning of Yin and Yang, alternating between the four seasons,rotations of the five elements, changes between the winds from the eight directions , and shifting of the abnormality and normality of the climate. Both the Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Yi learning stress on the changes of time, yet the former pays more attention to the producing and destroying between the five elements, while the latter to the oppositeness and alternation between Yin and Yang. Theories of The Internal Medicine is closely related to the Gua qi theory (correlating the trigrams or hexagrams with seasonal points) of the Yi learning. Though both of the Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Yi learning lay particular stress on the unity of the heaven and human, the former emphasizes a natural unity while the latter a humanistic one. Two kinds of unity are not contradictory but correlated. Human may pursuit these two kinds of unity at the same time.
