Meanings of elements

COOLING PROCESS, LOWER TEMPERATURE, CHANGE BETWEEN TWO PHYSICAL STATES, ONE DROP AFTER ANOTHER, CEASE MOTION with HERBAL FIBERS, HEMP, CANNABIS
…or: ILLNESS, DISEASE, SICK with CANNABIS

「Cooling, drop by drop, two states with hemp」or「illness needing much hemp」to relieve symptoms. Leprosy is actually caused by an upper respiratory infection (skin lesions are only one symptom), and smoking cannabis, an expectorant, causes spontaneous expulsion of phlegm from the lungs, along with some pathogens it must be assumed. Perhaps cannabis was ingested or smoked in dynastic China to relieve symptoms of leprosy,「illness and cannabis」as NUMBING. A characteristic of leprosy is that body parts drop off as the disease destroys tissue, blood circulation slows or ceases, and the parts「cool.」Hemp plants also drop leaves and branches from the bottom of the plant, the cool part out of direct sunlight, then progressively upward.「Illness of numbness」also describes a symptom of leprosy as appendages lose tactile senses and nerves are destroyed. This glyph is not「illness of multiple woodies」(痳) that refers to the burning symptoms associated while urinating with gonorrhea and flaming penis pain, the opposite of numbness.

Modern definitions (that generally disregard history) …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may list only pigeonholed definitions, euphemisms, or meaningless mnemonics)
Chinese: leprosy; numb
Unihan extended: pock-marked; leprosy; measles
EDRDG: measles; paralysis

Always keep in mind that these glyphs were originally created by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles and analogies for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that) and represented Chinese society many thousands of years ago, and not as a written or spoken language. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system. Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is! Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? And now, there is a cover-up. No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how bad the human world is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or they could only have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any dictionary. This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
