A Study on the Basic Structure and Core of Supporting Yang Theory [1]

The basic structure and core of supporting yang theory include:

1. Basic structure --- fire is the most important in our life
Yang qi is like the sky and Sun, life cannot be continued without yang qi. Fire is the most important to life, the treatment principle is to apply fire for eliminating yin excess.

2. Basic core concept--- yang is master, yin is follower
Yin grows when yang develops, yin stores when yang decreases.
Yin develops one step when yang moves one step; yin takes break when yang stops a moment. Yang is dominator of yin.

Key words: Supporting Yang Theory, basic structure, core concept
