There are 11 Harmonics in Human Beings; Each Corresponds to A Jin-Roe 經絡 in Chinese Medicine.

This note is a continuing story of the previous post describing what I understand from reading the book of "Melody of Qi" 氣的樂章 written by Dr. Wang.

The regular heart beats create 11 harmonics in the chest chamber. Each harmonic in the form of the pressure wave is transmitted through various organs in the body via arteries, capillaries and veins. For example, the first harmonic (n=1) is transmitted through the liver organ and is called the Liver 肝 Jin Rou 經絡while the second harmonic (n=2) is transmitted through the kidney organ and is called the Kidney 腎 Jin Rou 經絡. The 11 Jin-Rou 經絡 are shown in the attached one of the graphs.

Both the organs and the arteries have elasticities which allow the blood to transport via coupled vibrations. The vein cannot expand or constrict by itself. The transport of blood in capillaries and via are helped by various small cavities call the Shuei-Tau 穴道. The vibrations in these small cavities help blood to move in the capillaries and in the veins. If we put a finger pressure on capillaries, blood flow will slow down or even stopped. However, if we apply pressures on those small cavities, blood flow will actually increase according to Dr. Wang. In that sense, these small cavities or the Shuei-Tau 穴道 can be considered as a small spring. A model of the coupled flow with the arteries, organs, capillaries, small cavities (Shuei-Tau 穴道) and the veins are also shown in the attached photo.
