Liu Yuan's words of wisdom: "Medicine is difficult to master, as physicians are like small children, constantly ill informed. They gather sayings left behind by the sages and they dare not correct the high and brilliant....With full intention I studied the Six Confucian Classics, and found the one word 'benevolence' is clearly the root of the Sages' Dào. Who knew that with this one word, we can nurture the physical body? By correcting everything that is discordant with propriety, we can reach peace and harmony in the Qì and blood. Earlier physicians only allowed the principle of their Natural Character (性 Xìng) to guide their actions and words, and the Heart method followed this. What more explanation is needed? In the Six Classics and all the works of Confucius, not once is the word medicine written, but repeatedly we see the word benevolence. .......In the Analects (論語Lún Yǔ) one can find many small Dào, so its words must be thoroughly investigated. Moreover, the human Heart thinks a lot, bringing about many inappropriate things. As a result one engenders a disharmony of Qì, Yīn and Yáng. Through one small moment of non-benevolence and non-properness, the person acts contrary to the upright Qì of Heaven and Earth, with disharmony the only possible outcome. .......The high and brilliant noble person, when desiring to save people, goes back to this one word: benevolence. Stating it clearly to all the medical scholars who, throughout their entire careers have yet to cure a disease, be consoled with Heaven’s proper benevolence. Thereafter, how would merit and virtue not be fulfilled to the extreme?"
The Special Edition includes both the translations of many quotes and the original Chinese as an appendix at the end of the book.
