Guest guest Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Well, all of the luo deal with blood/emotional issues, and the shaoyin (heart-kidney relationship) addresses basic issues of embodiment (shen animating jing and jing containing shen).

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 Steve, Are you aware of or do you remember Jeffrey having mentioned anything regarding specific point(s) associated with this luo?

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 Neil and everyone, Please don't think me a " scold, " but I think it's important to mention that while I use points as a short-hand for describing the trajectory, what I'm actually talking about is the *trajectory* -- in this case of a branch of the chongmai. Since the early Song Dynasty (about a thousand years ago) there's been a great shift away from the channels toward emphasizing points. So, I'm talking about a vessel here, rather than simply a collection of points. The great luo of *shaoyin* is associated with the fourth trajectory of the post-natal *chongmai* -- the one that goes from *qichong* (St 30) to * chongyang* (St 42) to the large toe. This aspect of chongmai is responsible for synchronizing the individual's digestion (stomach, intestines, spleen) of physical and experiential inputs, so that one digests them into (relatively clear and smoothly flowing) qi and blood rather than fermenting them into hopelessly entangled auto-intoxication (both physical and metaphorical).
