《素问缪刺论篇第六十三》
“黄帝问曰:余闻缪刺,未得其意,何谓缪刺?
岐伯对曰:夫邪之客于形也,必先舍于皮毛,留而不去,入舍于孙脉,留而不去,入舍于络脉,留而不去,入舍于经脉,内连五脏,散于肠胃,阴阳俱感,五脏乃伤,此邪之从皮毛而入,极于五脏之次也。如此则治其经焉。”
“今邪客于皮毛,入舍于孙络,留而不去,闭塞不通,不得入于经,流溢于大络,而生奇病也。夫邪客大络者,左注右,右注左,上下左右与经相干,而布于四末,其气无常处,不入于经俞,命曰缪刺。”
<Suwen, Chapter 63>
“Yellow Emperor asked: I heard about Miu Ci (On Contralateral Needling). I could not understand what it is. What is On Contralateral Needling?
Qi Bo said: When the evil-qi attacks the body, first it attacks the fur and skin. If it stays and does not go away, then it will go deeper to lodge in the Sun Meridians (the smallest meridian).If it stays and does not go away, then it will go deeper to lodge in the Luo Meridians. If it stays and does not go away, then it will go deeper to lodge in the Channel Meridians. Then it will go to the five Zang organs, disseminates to the intestines and stomach, resulting in the sickness of both Yin and Yang, then the five Zang organs are damaged. Those are the sequence of the evil-qi attacks from the fur and skin, and end up to the five Zang organs. If the disease shows like this, then treat the channel meridians.”
“Now the evil-qi attacks the fur and skin, then goes deeper to lodge in the Sun Meridians. It stays and does not go away. It is blocked and cannot go through to the Channel Meridians. It is disseminate in the big Luo Meridians, and then causes strange disease. When the evil-qi lodges in the big Luo Meridians, the left goes to the right, and the right goes to the left. From up to down, left to right, they are crossing from the Channel meridians, then distribute to the four extremities. The qi has no fixed place to stay, and not enter the points of the channel meridians. So we called it Miu Ci (On Contralateral Needling).
