Abstract
    Since the Song,Jin and Yuan Dynasties,the theories of monarch fire,ministerial fire and life-gate have gradually become a hot topic for many doctors. SUN Yikui and ZHANG Jiebin reported to their predecessors,and systematically expounded the controversial phase fire theory and the life-gate theory,which further enriched the theory of fire. This paper analyzed the academic thoughts of SUN Yikui and ZHANG Jiebin on monarch fire and ministerial fire,life-gate and ministerial fire respectively from three aspects of physiology,pathology and clinical treatment. The article found that both SUN and ZHANG were influenced by the “Neo-Confucianism Taiji” ideology and incorporated it into their theory of life-gate. Both of them emphasized the importance of warming and nourishing the qi,but with different focuses. SUN focused on enhancing the original energy while ZHANG paid attention to the complementarity of yin and yang. In addition,this paper revealed the formation process of monarch fire and ministerial fire and their relationship with the theory of life-gate,and clarified the concepts of monarch fire,ministerial fire,and life-gate. Through this study,we hope to gain a deeper understanding of their thoughts of fire theory,grasp the connection between their academic views,and it is helpful to further understand the evolution of fire theory,for the later doctors to further understand and apply the fire theory to provide certain theoretical support.
