从任脉、督脉、冲脉(以下简称三脉)结构及生理功能与肾的关系方面进行阐述,研究三脉与肾关系的深层内涵。三脉同源之处在肾下胞中,胞即命门,与肾为统一的整体,是全身经络总源头,三脉直接源于肾,与肾关系更为密切。三脉本为一脉即太冲脉,属于肾,与肾经组成统一的整体,这决定了三脉生理功能与肾的关系非常密切,肾为先天之本,阴阳之根,养育后天是生命的灵根,任务艰巨繁重,三脉生理功能取决于肾,且分担肾的负担,任脉统御一身之阴,督脉统御一身之阳,冲脉主统血脉、脏腑经络气血,三脉还是肾主生殖发育的重要基础。因此,三脉与肾的关系非常密切,有着深刻的内涵。
Based on the classical theory of meridian, to study the deep connotation of the relationship among Ren meridian, Du meridian and Chong meridian ( hereinafter referred to as the three merdians ) and kidney. The three meridians are originated from vital gate. The vital gate and kidney are a unified whole, which is the total source of the all meridians, but there is a closer relationship between the three meridians and kidney. The three meridians are one meridian, called Taichong meridian, which is a unified whole with kidney. The physiological task of kidney is onerous, because it is the foundation of innateness and the root of yin-yang. The physiological function of the three meridians share that of kidney, which are based on kidney, Ren meridian and Du meridian are the sea of yin-yang meridians. Chong meridian is the sea of blood, and the three meridians are important foundation of kidney dominating reproduction. So, there is a close relationship between the three meridians and kidney.
