Virus Survival Secrets from Ancient China that Can Save Your Life!

[@rencechannel2240]

As a Chinese descendants in overseas country. You are right, I wish our homeland will turn back from our good ancient traditions.

The current pandemic has many front-line hospital workers worried about catching the COVID virus. Some workers become infected despite precautions and some have died. The vast majority of hospital workers have remained unaffected, and a few who have been infected have been asymptomatic. A number have fled, however, quitting their jobs (some who can afford to quit or who have spouses with large salaries). Problem is, in many jobs, the employers cultivate, deliberately, an atmosphere of stress, which has an adverse effect on health. You'd think that hospital administrators would practice stress reduction rather than stress production.

Herbalism! As to being righteous, it's notable that throughout history that's a prevailing theme for many cultures, that the people who gave a damn about others tended to last longer than the selfish.Thanks for discussing!

[@stephenschlachter6370]

What you say makes sense I have always tried to love and help others and when covid 19 hit I was bearly touched not even a week I was fine. I have now been tested 4x and keep coming up negative. Thanks for your story. If my girlfriend’s family got sick I want to take of them.

Pure heartedness (or love) = righteous chi. This video is a great treasure revealing Chinese wisdom, which the modern world finds hard to believe. It will take some time but it will be known. Thank you.

The Koreans had a saying: Keep your head cool and your feet warm and you'll be healthier.

[@minstrelgirl451]

It's amazing how we who are so "advanced" with learning what causes disease, then discover truths in what was written thousands of years ago. Also, can you please do a video focusing on how the ancient dress was different between the poor and rich? Did the lower classes wear the same styles, but in rougher fabrics? Were certain colors reserved for the wealthy? I have watched about five of your videos today and want to learn more!

[@Mrs.miriam]

I think cloths used differ in texture and color and embellishment.fine and silky,colorful,with jewelry for the rich while coarse and common,dull looking,monotone cloth color for the poor. Imo

Wasn't there another plague in the late 600s, the Emperor (just before the Empress Wu came to reign) moved the court and government away from the city into a temporary tented city until the plague was over. The person left to oversee the original city and deal with the plague was Dee Ren Ji (spelling may be inaccurate, there seem to be several versions). I read that it was postulated that it was being spread by the rats, possibly fleas living on them, which were multiplying fast and living in the sewers. They had had no rainfall which meant no water to flush the sewers, and rats, out. When the rains finally arrived and cleaned the sewers the plague (called the yellow plague I think) slowly vanished. But it left hundreds dead in its wake across all sections of society. They burned the bodies to contain the contagion. It featured as a backdrop in a book I read and the author expanded further in his notes. Even then it was recommended to cover your nose and mouth in case it could be caught by breathing it in, but I am not certain they have ever really discovered what it was or how it spread. For example, due to recent mild winters we are over run with rats at present in the countryside, I can see that they might be blamed for carrying the plague if modern doctor's didn't know anything about COVID, so the rats may have been equally innocent some 1300 years ago and it was wearing a face covering that was the real reason that some caught it while others didn't. Oh, and it was recorded as having arrived from the east apparently.

真的太喜欢你了❤️🥰你把中国文化发扬了🙏👍

[@mastersadvocate]

We should all take care of each other by staying home and not going out. That's what our doctors and our Prime Minister are telling us, here in Canada. If we do have to go out, we are supposed to stay at least six feet (2 metres) away from others so we do not spread the COVID-19 virus. Some people are not doing this, and it is seen as selfish by others. I have heard in the news that China is recovering from the COVID-19 virus. I am happy to hear this!! I pray that other countries can recover as well! ~Janet in Canada

[@wric01]

No good deed goes unpunished. That s what I encountered throughout life.

[@QuizmasterLaw]

This is well intentioned and I love your work; while it is true no matter what we must strive to be virtuous this video exemplifies pre-scientific wishful thinking. If righteous people don't get the illness then why are so many front-line medical workers getting ill or even dying? They are of course virtuous. They are also over-worked, maybe make mistakes. Wishful thinking only goes so far. Material facts generally determine our thoughts; our thoughts only exceptionally determine material facts. So, attitudes do matter but actions matter more.

[@lineysmith81]

Very well said! I totally agree, but I believe thinking good thoughts (not necessarily positivity quotes, but rather a good sense of self-esteem, self-confidence, altruism for the sake of doing good, being kind to yourself and others, etc.) won't hurt you either. When the outside world is distressing, the only source of calm might have to be cultivated within yourself, and we all need peace at some points. Though ofc, as you said, we have to consider many sides :)

[@andyxyz01]

I agree with you. Traditions are valuable, but not at the expense of scientific fact.

[@DrMichaelCote]

Attitude comes before acting. I am a practitioner of Chinese medicine which is a highly logic based medicine, mostly through inductive reasoning, and unfortunately this video focused only on the spiritual. While the spiritual can be important insofar as it determines our actions, it doesn't really explain how "plagues" and "evil air" are treated. For that, we often look to the treatises on cold and febrile diseases, the Shang Han Lun and Wen Bing which aims at restoring to the body to homeostasis, or as the ancient Chinese called it the harmony of yin and yang. If a general had a whole army fall victim to "evil air", he couldn't win the war, so these treatments are usually very practical. Hopefully, she can do a video about how traditional Chinese medicine uses logic. Unfortunately logic seems like magic to those who don't understand it.

[@alan5496]

I think I remember someone telling me that medicine works best on people with good mental health. Having a virtuous philosophy to guide your mind gives medicine the best chance at working on you.

[@monkey_see_monkey_do]

Hey Ally, thanks for such a supporting video in these tough days! How does it feels where you live? How's the mood in China in general? I'm also wondering whether the Chinese government is promoting traditional methods of fighting viruses?

[@KaiDiization]

Actually, the Chinese communist regime has destroyed our traditional Chinese culture and replaced by "Chinese Communism Party Culture" which had brainwashed so many mainland Chinese for years. More details see this link: kzbin.info/aero/PLED64004A96BE76FA

[@hvvy4834]

As a Shanghainese, my place is getting normal these days. Most people just live like usual but more careful(wear masks, keep distance with others, and sanitizing). I don’t really see some traditional methods except for the use of Chinese medicine. Thank you for your friendly question and stay healthy :)

[@vio3366]

@@KaiDiization can't agree more! but actually most of the culture that was still in China was Manchu culture, from Qing dynasty, which is still interesting to me but not as much as previous dynasties. However I think that the Chinese government has done a lot for the welfare of their citizens

What is philiopiety?

[@KaiDiization]

Filial piety (Chinese: 孝, xiào) is a virtue of respect for one's parents, elders, and ancestors, by extension, most importantly for the divine (the heaven). So filial piety determines the moral value of a person in his society. In general, filial piety requires children to offer love, respect, support, and deference to their parents and other elders in the family, such as grandparents or older siblings. Acts of filial piety include obeying one's parent's wishes, taking care of them when they are old, and working hard to provide them with material comforts, such as food, money, or pampering.

After all there is a saying goes. 1 generation become minister will have 3 generation of bad out come. 3 generation become minister will no have descendants left in the family. Be happy to boost your immune system and don’t go crazy drive people and yourself nuts. I know it’s hard to let go sometimes. Do your best, you can do it. 😉 As 5th generation American Chinese, I do hope our homeland will learn modestly and humanity. And stop pushing righteous people to their death. Sorry got emotional there. Seeing what happens China and Hong Kong makes my heartaches. 😭

[@botanicalbiohacking6065]

Thats not what righteous qi means. When a person lacks it, we use herbs and other methods which enhance the immune system. Happy thoughts may help, but the texts for the last 2,000 years require serious medical intervention. These stories are nice, but have little to do with the medical application of qi.

Yes, what you say is true, although it goes against what many people in today’s materialist society believe. The COVID has been caused originally by humans disrespecting Nature. Now we are being forced to recognise that Nature is sovereign over us. We will survive only if we show selfless consideration for each other. I am a Jew and my faith teaches a principle called “tikkun olam “ which means “the healing of the world”. It’s a similar concept to that of karmic retribution. Human beings have destroyed the world with hatred, therefore it is our responsibility to heal it again with kindness. At my Synagogue, we have formed a Welfare Committee to care for each other and this is working very well and helping us to cope. I am making food for, and giving gifts to my neighbours in the building where I live, and I get great satisfaction, happiness and peace of mind knowing I am contributing to their well-being.
