There are hundreds of beauties and thousands of red people in the world, and I only love you, the Chinese medicine in the Book of Songs (Rubia).

A man is standing at the east gate.

Beauty is like a cloud, and clothes are fluttering.

Men's eyes are clear, indifferent and calm, and their hearts are as calm as water.

There is only one person in his heart.

This scene happened 2500 years ago,

According to the Book of Songs,

Sing to this day.

"Out of its east gate, there are women like a cloud. Although like a cloud. I'll think about it. I love the green scarf, so I love it.

Walking outside the city gate, the beauty is Kaya. Although it is not mine, it is not mine. Only a scarf with this element can be loved interestingly.

-"The Book of Songs, National Style, Zheng Feng, Out of the East Gate"

The heart belongs, the feeling belongs, and the meaning refers.

Who says only people with broken hearts? There are spoony lovers in the world.

There are many things in the world, and I only love you.

A man's sweetheart,

It was a woman wearing a white silk dress, a light green apron and a red scarf.

"Yi Yi Ru Yi", Yi Yi is Bai Juan; So means to use such a scarf dyed red.

At that time, it was a plant called milk beard that dyed silk red.

Which is what we call madder today.

As early as the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, madder was the main red dye.

In April and May, madder grows new buds and then green leaves.

In September and October, small yellow flowers bloom on the hillside.

It is hard for us to imagine that when the flowers fall in autumn,

Madder with small yellow flowers is bright red.

After the madder seeds, dig out the roots.

Was, air drying, grin into powder, fermenting,

Then the hand-woven white silk cotton cloth is immersed in a madder dyeing vat,

Dyed into the most dazzling color in nature-red.

Different shades from light red to deep red.

Among a large number of silk cultural relics unearthed, madder is dyed a lot.

Hidden in my mind is crazy and intense enthusiasm.

This is very much like us orientals.

Under the hint and forbearance,

Traces of fire and blood,

Love and the pulse of life,

Immersed in clothes and makeup, this is the soul of madder.

There are many things in the world, and I only love you.

Madder is a traditional Chinese medicine.

Shennong's Herbal Classic: "Treat cold, dampness, wind arthralgia, jaundice and tonify middle energizer."

Madder can be used for various blood syndromes of blood stasis.

The Simplified Recipe for Helping the Masses is only used as the last decoction to treat hematemesis.

For metrorrhagia and metrorrhagia due to blood heat, it is often combined with Radix Rehmanniae, Pollen Typhae and Platycladus orientalis.

Guchong decoction recorded in Medical Canon and Western Book shows that madder, Radix Astragali, Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae, Cornus officinalis, etc. are both used to treat metrorrhagia and metrorrhagia of qi deficiency type.

"Experience Wide Collection" treats amenorrhea due to blood stasis, and decocts it with madder wine alone to dredge collaterals and remove blood stasis. Or with peach kernel, safflower and angelica. ......

It should be noted that madder tastes bitter and cold, so use it with caution.

Nowadays, fewer and fewer women with blood-heat constitution are suitable for madder.

Female body cold is more common.

Why?

Love to eat ice and drink cold, eat cold and cool?

Clothes are below the waist and skirts are below the knee?

No fear during menstruation, no cold?

Manic thinking? Qi and blood dissipate?

......

sometimes

Walking on a country hillside covered with reeds or day lilies.

The wind in the wilderness smells of the Book of Songs.

The Book of Songs is the oldest collection of poems in China.

Not only literature, but also education.

There are many symbols of flowers and trees in The Book of Songs.

It formed a literary tradition and also reflected the daily customs and lifestyle at that time.

Things are changing, human nature is unchanged, and emotions are eternal.

Do you think the Millennium is frost? The so-called Iraqis, on the other side of the water, are tactfully affectionate and low for a long time?

Or "I have been there, Yangliuyiyi." Today, it's raining and snowing, which adds to my sadness.

Or are you glad for the brilliance and warmth of "peach blossoms wither and burn their brilliance"?

These sentences are all from The Book of Songs.

The text is so simple, but it is amazing for thousands of years, and there is only the Book of Songs.

Many flowers and trees mentioned in the Book of Songs can be used as medicine.

Besides madder, there are dodder, Fritillaria cirrhosa, motherwort, peony, wormwood, Alisma orientalis, pepper, wolfberry fruit and polygala tenuifolia. .....

These Chinese medicines in the Book of Songs,

Take us step by step into the dialogue between plant spirituality and life poetry.

When we face them,

In distant poems, there is a grass and a tree, a skirt, a smile, a farewell, a love and a hate. ......

Scenes and stories that really happen,

Today, it is clearly visible and repeatedly interpreted.

The original book of songs and vegetation,

By our side, in our hearts, we can never go far.

Decades ago, chemical fiber fabrics were all the rage.

People try to be proud of wearing polyester and acrylic.

Linen cotton cloth, which has been passed down for thousands of years, has been put in the cold.

Plants are no longer used as raw materials for dyeing,

Strange chemical dyes wrap around us every day.

A steady stream of chemically synthesized drugs, falling from the sky,

Not something that originally existed in nature,

Is not something that our bodies can recognize and accept.

Always go through the pain of cutting skin and breaking tendons,

Look back.

Now more and more people choose linen clothes.

Some people have begun to restore plant dyeing.

More and more people choose Chinese medicine.

In fact, this is not only a complicated,

This must be the closeness of the soul.

How ridiculous it is to use the so-called science to verify whether Chinese medicine is scientific or not.

This is like using English grammar and context to evaluate and modify the Book of Songs.

Is it necessary to verify whether the type of blood flowing in our blood vessels is reasonable?

Do you need to change another blood type?

The Book of Songs is the blood flowing in our bodies.

So is Chinese medicine.

After cutting the skin and tendon,

The thick dust in the Book of Songs may still be erased.

Traditional Chinese medicine has been unrecognizable and fragmented.

We need to restore, inherit and cherish bit by bit.

You came here a thousand years ago,

I came to you after 1000 years.

There are many things in the world, and I only love you.

Vegetation has spirit, people have feelings, and the Book of Songs is immortal.

Traditional Chinese medicine is spiritual, affectionate and immortal.
