二 十 一 難 21th difficult issue
Èr shí yī nán 論 形 與 脈 explains appearance and pulse Lùn Xíng yǔ mài 二 十 一 難 曰 ：21 difficulty explains Èrshíyī nán yuē 經 言 ： treatise states Jīng yán 人 形 病 when person looks ill Rén xíng bìng mài 脈 不 病 but the pulse is not ill Mài bù bìng 曰 生 ，so they declare life/ patient will live Yuē shēng |
脈 病 when pulse is ill
Mài bìng
形 不 病 but patient doesn’t looks ill
Xíng bù bìng
曰 死 。so they declare death
Yuē sǐ
何 謂 也 ？ 然 ：how to explain this? Explanation
Hé wèi yě? Rán:
人 形 病 when patien looks ill
Rén xíng bìng
脈 不 病 ， but pulse is not ill
Mài bù bìng
非 有 if don’t have
Fēi yǒu
不 病 者 也 ，so don’t ill
Bù bìng zhě yě
謂 息 數 it is when amount of breaths
Wèi xi shù
不 應 脈 數 也 。doesn’t match amount of pulsations
Bù yīng mài shù yě.
此 大 法 。it is a great truth

Twenty first difficulty of NanJing is linked to the first difficulty :
人 一 呼 in a man for one exhale
脈 行 三 寸 ，pulsation travels 3 cun
一 吸 for one inhale
脈 行 三 寸 ，pulsation travels 3 cun
......................................
人 一 日 一 夜 ，man makes during one day and one night
凡 /every/
一 萬 one ten thousand
三 千three thousand
五 百 息 ，five hundred /13500/ breaths
These difficulties explain relation between pulsation of the heart and breath of pulse.
Archaic acupuncture observes 13500 breaths of the pulse, shortest periods which are observed through the pulse. Each of these periods should match or consist from same amount of heart beats, so in this case Qi will move exactly 3 cun through pulse inhalation and 3 cun through pulse exhalation cycles or 6 cun through entire pulse breathing cycle. In this case condition of patient will have successful prognosis for recovery. These pulse breaths are indication of balanced work of autonomous sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, so this rhythm is used even in modern cardiology and is observed through pulse palpation.
