meridians & extra meridians

<p>Hello, <br />
<br />
Do the 8 extra meridians pair up with the 12 main meridians that are named after the major organs. <br />
What does Du, Ren,Chong, Dai, Yinqiao, Yangqiao, Yinwei, and Yangwei mean. Is there any English translation. <br />
<br />
Are these 8 extra meridian considered to be collaterals?" <br />
<br />
Thanks for helping clarify this, <br />
Anne <br />

<p>Dera Anne,<br />
<br />
I think the text tells clearly about the difference between the regular meridians and the extra meridians.<br />
<br />
Likewise, the text tells the meridian-collaterals system consists mainly two parts, the meridian system and collateral system. <br />
<br />
So, what do you think about the Eight extra meridian? Are they included in the meridian system or in the collateral system? <br />
<br />
The text also tells the extra meridians do not have the pertaining or connecting relations with the Zang-Fu organs, and this is one of the difference between the regular and extra meridians. So what are the other differences? Would you please find out and post them hre?<br />
