Wei Collection, Lower Volume Radical: Meat (ròu) 腑 Kangxi Stroke Count: 14 Page 987, Entry 06 Pronounced fu (rising tone) Jade Chapters (Yupian): Visceral organs. Records of the Grand Historian (Shiji): Those who are relatives of the feudal lords are like the lungs and bowels. Baopuzi: To break up accumulations in the visceral organs. Also written in a variant form (fu). Golden Cabinet Discourse (Jinkui Lun): Regarding the yin and yang within the human visceral organs, those which store are yin, and those which are storehouses are yang. The liver, heart, spleen, lungs, and kidneys—the five organs—are all yin. The gallbladder, stomach, large intestine, small intestine, bladder, and triple burner—the six storehouses—are all yang. Note: The five organs belong to the interior; they store essence and qi and do not discharge, therefore they are yin. The six storehouses belong to the exterior; they transmit substances but do not store them, therefore they are yang. Pronounced fu (falling tone). Meaning is the same.
