The Three Vinegar Tasters (三酸圖)
The allegorical painting shows three men dipping their fingers in a vat of vinegar and tasting it. One man reacts with a sour expression, another one reacts with a bitter expression, and the other one reacts with a sweet expression.
The identity of the three men in the painting varies in China, Korea, and Japan. The most popular version though depicts the three men to be Confucius, Buddha, and Laozi.
Confucius is portrayed with a sour expression on his face as he tastes the vinegar. This represents his belief in the inherent difficulties and challenges of life. Confucius focused on the importance of moral values, social harmony, and the cultivation of virtues (ren, yi, li, zhi, xin) as the path to great peace (taiping) and harmonious society (datong). Confucianism saw life as sour, in need of rules and orders, authority and discipline to correct the degeneration of people and society.
Buddha is depicted with a bitter expression. His reaction reflects his recognition of the suffering (dukkha) and transience and impermanence of life (annica and anatta). Buddhism teaches that attachment and desire (tanha) lead to suffering, and the path to enlightenment (nirvana) and liberation from the cycle of life-death-rebirth (samsara) involves transcending these attachments and achieving inner peace. Buddhism saw life as bitter, short yet intense, dominated by pain and suffering due to the attachment to possessions and desires.
Laozi is shown with a serene expression. He is often associated with sweetness in the painting, suggesting his belief in the natural flow of life, in harmony with the Tao (the Way), and in the simplicity of existence. Laozi's attitude and philosophy emphasizes living in accordance with nature, going with the flow (wu wei), embracing the spontaneity of life (pagtanggap) with all its mundaneness and surprises, ups and downs, joys and sadness, and in being grounded to humility (ziran) amidst this chaotic, complex world which can burn-out man and society. Taoism saw the power (te) of life (buhay) as sweet due to it being fundamentally perfect, purposeful, and harmonious in its natural state (tianran).
Another interpretation of the painting is that, since the three men are gathered around one vat of vinegar, the "three great life teachings of the three great teachers" are one.
Relatedly, the popular Chinese proverb "Three laughs at Tiger Brook (虎溪三笑)" refers to another popular allegorical image of three men, Huiyuan the Buddhist monk, Tao Yuanming the Confucian politician, and Lu Xiujing the Taoist scholar laughing all together when arriving at Huxi (Tiger Brook) at the sacred Lu Mountain. This allegorical concept represents the perspective of the inter-connectedness and ideal harmonious relationship of , , and

SLOW MOVING TAI CHI IS ‘MORE EFFECTIVE THAN AEROBIC EXERCISE’ FOR REDUCING HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE
A new study has found that the ancient Chinese martial art of Tai Chi was more effective in reducing high blood pressure than other forms of exercise such as brisk walking or stair climbing.
Scientists compared two groups comprising of 342 participants with high blood pressure over one year - one practising Tai Chi and the other performing aerobic exercise during four supervised sessions every week.
They measured the systolic blood pressure (SBP) of participants at six months and at the end of the study. At both stages, they found significant differences in the blood pressure of the two groups.
Each participant had blood pressure readings of between 120 and 139 at the beginning of the study. At 12 months, the average blood pressure of the Tai Chi group fell by 7.1 points, whereas the aerobic groups’ fell by just 4.61. Similar results were also observed after six months.
Dr Yanwei Xing, a lead researcher of the study, said: “Twelve months of Tai Chi are superior to aerobic exercise for reducing blood pressure load in patients with prehypertension - which would be more beneficial in reducing the risk of hypertension.”
(The study is published in the Journal of the American Medical Association Network Open.)
