Eight Extraordinary Channels
from amazon site:
"Taoist Cosmology and the classic Eight Extraordinary Channel"
'Chinese Medicine is based on a cosmological understanding of life. Ancient Taoists developed systems of communication that reveal profound relationships between Heaven, Humanity and Earth. These ancient communication tools include the Luo Shu Nine Palaces, He Tu, Early and Later Heaven Ba Gua and I Ching; these tools are the foundation of the Eight Branches of Tao and Chinese Culture. A deep understanding of these Taoist tools is a key to unlock mysteries of the Taoist Arts.
This book presents theories revealing and explaining mysteries of Acupuncture. Initiated by Dou Han Qing in the Yuan Dynasty, the legendary Xu Feng in the Ming Dynasty made three unique contributions: each of the Eight Extraordinary channels have unique pairings, each channel has a command or master point and each of them corresponds with one of the eight trigrams. Xu Feng did not present a theory supporting these correspondences. For almost one thousand years the theory supporting these three contributions has been unknown to the public. This book is my original work explaining those relationships based on Taoist theories and cosmological models, which include the Luo Shu, He Tu, Early-Later Heaven Ba Gua and Taoist internal alchemy.'
