HEXAGRAM 17 \u2013 Sui – Following<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Above\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>TUI\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>THE JOYOUS, LAKE<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Below\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>CHEN\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>THE AROUSING, THUNDER<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The trigram Tui, the Joyous, whose attribute is gladness, is above; Chen, the Arousing, which has the attribute of movement, is below.\u00a0 <\/span>Joy in movement induces following.\u00a0 <\/span>The Joyous is the youngest daughter, while the Arousing is the eldest son.\u00a0 <\/span>An older man defers to a young girl and shows her consideration.\u00a0 <\/span>By this he moves her to follow him. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

THE JUDGMENT<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

FOLLOWING has supreme success.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Perseverance furthers.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

No blame.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In order to obtain a following one must first know how to adapt oneself.\u00a0 <\/span>If a man would rule he must first learn to serve, for only in this way does he secure from those below him the joyous assent that is necessary if they are to follow him.\u00a0 <\/span>If he has to obtain a following by force or cunning, by conspiracy or by creating factions, he invariably arouses resistance, which obstructs willing adherence.\u00a0 <\/span>But even joyous movement can lead to evil consequences, hence the added stipulation, “Perseverance furthers”-that is, consistency in doing right – together with “No blame.” Just as we should not ask others to follow us unless this condition is fulfilled, so it is only under this condition that we can in turn follow others without coming to harm.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The thought of obtaining a following through adaptation to the demands of the time is a great and significant idea; this is why the appended judgment is so favorable.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

THE IMAGE<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Thunder in the middle of the lake: \u00a0<\/span>The image of FOLLOWING. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Thus the superior man at nightfall <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Goes indoors for rest and recuperation.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In the autumn electricity withdraws into the earth again and rests.\u00a0 <\/span>Here it is the thunder in the middle of the lake that serves as the image – thunder in its winter rest, not thunder in motion.\u00a0 <\/span>The idea of following in the sense of adaptation to the demands of the time grows out of this image.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Thunder in the middle of the lake indicates times of darkness and rest.\u00a0 <\/span>Similarly, a superior man, after being tirelessly active all day, allows himself rest and recuperation at night.\u00a0 <\/span>No situation can become favorable until one is able to adapt to it and does not wear himself out with mistaken resistance.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

THE LINES<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

0 Nine in the fifth place means: <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Sincere in the good.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Good fortune.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Every man must have something he follows – something that serves him as a lodestar.\u00a0 <\/span>He who follows with conviction the beautiful and the good may feel himself strengthened by this saying.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

HEXAGRAM 51 \u2013 Chen – The Arousing (Shock, Thunder)<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Above\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>CHEN\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>THE AROUSING, THUNDER<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Below\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>CHEN\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>THE AROUSING, THUNDER<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The hexagram Chen represents the eldest son, who seizes rule with energy and power.\u00a0 <\/span>A yang line develops below two yin lines and presses upward forcibly.\u00a0 <\/span>This movement is so violent that it arouses terror.\u00a0 <\/span>It is symbolized by thunder, which bursts forth from the earth and by its shock causes fear and trembling.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

THE JUDGMENT<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Shock brings success.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Shock comes-oh, oh!<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Laughing words-ha, ha!<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The shock terrifies for a hundred miles, <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

And he does not let fall the sacrificial spoon and chalice.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The shock that comes from the manifestation of God within the depths of the earth makes man afraid, but this fear of God is good, for joy and merriment can follow upon it.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

When a man has learned within his heart what fear and trembling mean, he is safeguarded against any terror produced by outside influences.\u00a0 <\/span>Let the thunder roll and spread terror a hundred miles around: he remains so composed and reverent in spirit that the sacrificial rite is not interrupted.\u00a0 <\/span>This is the spirit that must animate leaders and rulers of men – a profound inner seriousness from which all outer terrors glance off harmlessly.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

THE IMAGE<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Thunder repeated: the image of SHOCK.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Thus in fear and trembling <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The superior man sets his life in order <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

And examines himself.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The shock of continuing thunder brings fear and trembling.\u00a0 <\/span>The superior man is always filled with reverence at the manifestation of God; he sets his life in order and searches his heart, lest it harbor any secret opposition to the will of God.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span>Thus reverence is the foundation of true culture.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
