He visited Deng Lao three times a week, copied prescriptions, recorded Deng Lao's traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions for treating coronary heart disease, systematically organized Deng Lao's academic thinking and clinical experience in treating coronary heart disease, and developed a computer software called "Deng Tietao Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnosis and Treatment System for Coronary Heart Disease".

Nourishing the Heart First for Health Preservation

The ancients said that those who are good at health preservation nourish the heart, while those who are not good at health preservation nourish the body. In the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon, Su Wen Ancient Innocence Theory, it is said that the tranquility and emptiness, the true qi, the inner guard of the spirit, and the peace of mind are always present. It is also pointed out in the book "Lingshu: The Beginning of All Diseases" that "the heart is the great master of the five organs and six internal organs, and the spirit is the giveaway. Its internal organs are strong, and evil cannot tolerate them. If it is tolerated, it will be sad. If it is heartbroken, it will go to the gods, and if it goes to the gods, it will die

Nourishing the heart not only includes the maintenance of the heart, but also includes the regulation of mood and mentality, that is, the heart is broad, the heart is positive, and the heart is calm; Peace of mind, peace of mind, peace of mind.

Wang Qinghai believes that Deng Lao's concept of nourishing the mind can be summarized into four points: broad mindedness (broad mindedness), unwavering determination (calm mindedness), selflessness (broad mindedness), and peace of mind (calm mindedness). Throughout his life, Deng Lao achieved the ultimate goal of being broad-minded, calm, broad-minded, and calm. In the process of modern and modern development of traditional Chinese medicine, traditional Chinese medicine has faced multiple doubts and criticisms. Deng Lao continuously called for and provided suggestions and suggestions for the development of traditional Chinese medicine, playing a crucial role in promoting the development of traditional Chinese medicine. He is very concerned about the revitalization of traditional Chinese medicine. At the same time, Deng Lao has unlimited loyalty and love for the cause of traditional Chinese medicine, and his sense of mission to the cause of traditional Chinese medicine has enabled him to strive for the development of traditional Chinese medicine throughout his life, always striving to promote it Yang takes traditional Chinese medicine as his own responsibility and firmly believes that the development path of traditional Chinese medicine must be wider and wider, and has put forward the theory of 'hardcore traditional Chinese medicine' Professor Wang Qinghai stated that this also indicates Deng Lao's focus on the development of traditional Chinese medicine.

Deng Lao inherited his family tradition from a young age and was influenced by Chinese Confucian ideology and culture. He harbored a sense of immortality and disregarded personal gains and losses. He devoted himself wholeheartedly to solving the pain of patients and promoting the development of traditional Chinese medicine. He often donates and delivers medication to patients in financial difficulties, reflecting the demeanor of a generation of great doctors.

The mind needs rest. In daily life, Deng often uses meditation to achieve a state of tranquility in his mind, such as meditation, meditation, and meditation, in order to stabilize his mind, maintain a calm state of mind, not be arrogant or restless, and maintain composure.

Nurturing the Heart and Cultivating Virtue First

In "University", it is said that "the path of university lies in Mingming virtue". The Book of Rites and Records of Music believes that "virtue is the core of Chinese culture, and art is the key to success. The Book of Changes records that "the terrain is vast, and a gentleman carries things with virtue." Deng himself once wrote, "There is a proper diet, a regular lifestyle, a calm heart, and a virtuous person who lives a long life

In terms of cultivating morality, Deng Laolao believes that the key is to cultivate benevolence, humility, and the spirit of benefiting the world. The Analects of Confucius recorded that "those who know (wisdom) are happy with water, those who are benevolent are happy with mountains, those who are benevolent are moving, those who are benevolent are quiet, those who are benevolent are happy, and those who are benevolent are longevity." Dong Zhongshu of the Han Dynasty explained: "The reason why benevolent people have more longevity is that they have no greed outside but are quiet inside, and their hearts are peaceful without losing their integrity. They take the beauty of heaven and earth to nourish their bodies." Later generations used "benevolent people's longevity" as a synonym for longevity. Deng Lao believes that the most important aspect of moral cultivation lies in cultivating benevolence. As a physician, Deng Lao believes that medical skills are all about benevolence and always adheres to the ethical principle of "benevolence and benevolence are the soul of medicine".

Professor Wang Qinghai believes that although Deng is young and virtuous in his old age, he does not hold himself in high positions, but rather has a humble attitude. He often encouraged later scholars to "surpass me if they learn from me", hoping that every student can excel and surpass me.

Deng Lao has a heart of helping the world. As Sun Simiao said in his "Great Doctor's Sincerity": "In the great treatment of diseases, one must calm the mind and set one's mind, have no desires or desires, and first express great kindness and compassion, vowing to save the suffering of Han Ling." Forge a heart of benevolence. During his decades of practicing medicine, Deng not only saved countless lives on the brink of death, but also always prioritized the cause of traditional Chinese medicine and the interests of the people. Even during the SARS outbreak in 2003, Deng, who was already 90 years old, served as the leader of the national expert group on traditional Chinese medicine treatment, leading a large number of traditional Chinese medicine clinical personnel to always stand at the forefront of the fight against SARS.

Health preservation requires nourishing the brain

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the heart governs the gods, the brain governs the primordial spirit, and nourishing the heart requires nourishing the brain. If God is at peace, life will be prolonged, and if God is gone, it will disperse. Therefore, one must not neglect to nourish oneself. "Wang Qinghai said," The brain is the organ of the primordial spirit, and if one gains God, life will come; if one loses God, death will come.

Deng Lao is very concerned about national affairs and always maintains independent thinking while keeping up with the trend of the times. In 1986, the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine was established, and the development of traditional Chinese medicine reached a new level, which was closely related to Deng Laolao's advice in 1985. Deng Lao always regards the development of traditional Chinese medicine as his own responsibility. Deng Lao believes that although traditional Chinese medicine is an ancient discipline, its development also needs to keep up with the trend of the times. Modernization of traditional Chinese medicine requires experimental research, but it cannot simply borrow the existing methods of Western medicine. It should be combined with new technologies under the guidance of traditional Chinese medicine theory to create new experimental methods for traditional Chinese medicine.

In terms of culture, Deng emphasized the dual integration of Chinese culture and world culture, and the integration of China and the West requires a new path of learning from each other and promoting each other's strengths. Deng Lao believes that the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine does not represent Westernization, but rather requires grasping the development laws of traditional Chinese medicine and following its own path of development.

Nourishing and nourishing oneself

In the book "Su Wen: The Theory of Innocence in Ancient Times", it is said that "those who know it are guided by the principles of yin and yang, and by the principles of martial arts. They have a balanced diet, a regular lifestyle, and do not engage in excessive labor. Therefore, they are able to form themselves in harmony with the gods and go to the age of a hundred

Deng Lao combined the traditional health preservation philosophy of traditional Chinese medicine with his own experience to form a complete set of health preservation practices based on diet, daily life, guidance, and martial arts practice, and provided the best explanation for his own longevity and health.

Deng Lao combined the concept of traditional Chinese medicine dietary health preservation with daily health preservation, and summarized the dietary philosophy as follows: "Eating miscellaneous foods without bias and dividing them into seven parts for a certain degree. Adhere to a daily routine, invent and adhere to "alternating hot and cold baths", such as "vascular gymnastics", traditional Chinese medicine foot massage, self acupoint pressing, foot massage, etc., in order to regulate qi and blood, unblock meridians, and achieve the purpose of health preservation.

Deng Lao Persists in Writing Calligraphy

He has been known for his decades of daily health practices, such as singing drums, hitting the pillow, being intelligent in both ears, and reading newspapers frequently.

Deng's Eight Section Brocade, Standing Posts, Qigong... Deng often exercises his body, meditating for half an hour every afternoon to calm his mind and relax, eliminate distractions, concentrate, and focus on exhaling and inhaling, in order to calm his mind and restore his spirit. At the same time, he also insists on writing calligraphy. He believes that writing calligraphy is a health preserving technique because "calligraphy can nourish the mind, nourish the mind, and practice the mind." In the process of calligraphy practice, integrating health preserving concepts is beneficial for mental stability.
