生氣通天論篇第三(吳奇教授英文版學習筆記1)和題外話
黃帝曰：夫自古通天者生之本，本於陰陽。The emperor said: Since ancient time, it is considered that the existence of men has depended upon the communications of the variation of Yin and Yang energies, thus, human life is based on Yin and Yang.All things on the earth and in space communicate with the Yin and Yang energies. Human being is a small universe as human body has everything that the universe has.地球上和宇宙中所有的生物都與陰和陽進行交互。人體就是一個小宇宙，因為人體有宇宙中的所有一切。天地之間，六合之內，其氣九州九竅，In the universe, there are nine states (namely Ji, Yan, Qing, Xu, Yang, Jing, Yu, Liang and Yong), and man has nine orifices (seven orifices: two ears，two eyes, two nosetrils, and one mouth; two Yin orifices: external urethral orifice and the anus). 古有九州：冀、兖、青、徐、扬、荆、豫、梁、雍；人有九竅。五藏、十二節，皆通乎天氣，there are five musical tones in the universe, man has five solid organs reslponsible for storing the mental activities (liver stores soul, heart stores spirit, spleen stores consciousness, lung stores inferior spirit, kidney stores will ); 宇宙中有五種樂音（角（木）、徵（火）、宮（土）、商（金）、羽（水）），人有五藏負責儲存五種心理活動（肝藏魂、心藏神、脾藏意、肺藏魄、腎藏志）；There are twelve soar terms in the universe, and man has twelve channels. 十二個節氣對應人體十二正经。The Yin and Yang energies of human being correspond with the Yin and Yang energies of the universe, and the Yin and Yang energies of all things (including men) are communicating with that of the universe. 天人合一。其生五、The survival of a man depends on the Yin and Yang energies and depends on the five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, and earth), it is the so called "life depends on five". 陰陽、五行。其氣三，the five elements on earth correspond to the three Yins (cold, dryness and wetness) and three Yangs (wind, fire and summer heat), it is the so called "energies depend on the three". 五種元素在地球上對應三種陰性能量（寒、燥、濕）和三種陽性能量（風、火、暑）。數犯此者，則邪氣傷人，此壽命之本也。If one violates the lprinciples of preserving health frequently, his health will be hurt by the evil factors and contracts diseases. There, Yin and Yang energies are the foundation of life.學會用陰陽的角度看世界很重要。陰和陽不能簡單地翻譯成0和1。
