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

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

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

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

HEXAGRAM 50 \u2013 Ting – The Caldron<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

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

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

Above\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>LI\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>THE CLINGING, FIRE <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Below\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>SUN\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>THE GENTLE, WIND, WOOD<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

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

The six lines construct the image of Ting, THE CALDRON; at the bottom are the legs, over them the belly, then come the ears (handles), and at the top the carrying rings.\u00a0 <\/span>At the same time, the image suggests the idea of nourishment.\u00a0 <\/span>The Ting, cast of bronze, was the vessel that held the cooked viands in the temple of the ancestors and at banquets.\u00a0 <\/span>The head of the family served the food from the Ting into the bowls of the guests.1 THE WELL (48) likewise has the secondary meaning of giving nourishment, but rather more in relation to the people.\u00a0 <\/span>The Ting, as a utensil pertaining to a refined civilization, suggests the fostering and nourishing of able men, which redounded to the benefit of the state. (2)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

This hexagram and THE WELL are the only two in the Book of Changes that represent concrete, man-made objects.\u00a0 <\/span>Yet here too the thought has its abstract connotation.\u00a0 <\/span>Sun, below, is wood and wind; Li, above, is flame.\u00a0 <\/span>Thus together they stand for the flame kindled by wood and wind, which likewise suggests the idea of preparing food.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

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

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

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

THE CALDRON.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Supreme good fortune. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Success.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

While THE WELL relates to the social foundation of our life, and this foundation is likened to the water that serves to nourish growing wood, the present hexagram refers to the cultural superstructure of society.\u00a0 <\/span>Here it is the wood that serves as nourishment for the flame, the spirit.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>All that is visible must grow beyond itself, extend into the realm of the invisible.\u00a0 <\/span>Thereby it receives its true consecration and clarity and takes firm root in the cosmic order.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

Here we see civilization as it reaches its culmination in religion.\u00a0 <\/span>The Ting serves in offering sacrifice to God.\u00a0 <\/span>The highest earthly values must be sacrificed to the divine.\u00a0 <\/span>But the truly divine does not manifest itself apart from man.\u00a0 <\/span>The supreme revelation of God appears in prophets and holy men.\u00a0 <\/span>To venerate them is true veneration of God.\u00a0 <\/span>The will of God, as revealed through them, should be accepted in humility; this brings inner enlightenment and true understanding of the world, and this leads to great good fortune and success.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

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

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

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

Fire over wood: The image of THE CALDRON. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Thus the superior man consolidates his fate <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

By making his position correct.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

The fate of fire depends on wood; as long as there is wood below, the fire burns above.\u00a0 <\/span>It is the same in human life; there is in man likewise a fate that lends power to his life.\u00a0 <\/span>And if he succeeds in assigning the right place to life and to fate, thus bringing the two into harmony, he puts his fate on a firm footing.\u00a0 <\/span>These words contain hints about the fostering of life as handed on by oral tradition in the secret teachings of Chinese yoga,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

HEXAGRAM 43 \u2013 Kuai – Break-through (Resoluteness)<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

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

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

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

Below\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>CH’IEN\u00a0 <\/span>THE CREATIVE, HEAVEN<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

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

This hexagram signifies on the one hand a break-through after a long accumulation of tension, as a swollen river breaks through its dikes, or in the manner of a cloudburst.\u00a0 <\/span>On the other hand, applied to human conditions, it refers to the time when inferior people gradually begin to disappear.\u00a0 <\/span>Their influence is on the wane; as a result of resolute action, a change in conditions occurs, a break-through.\u00a0 <\/span>The hexagram is linked with the third month [April-May].<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

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

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

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

BREAK-THROUGH.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

One must resolutely make the matter known <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

At the court of the king. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It must be announced truthfully.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Danger. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It is necessary to notify one’s own city. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It does not further to resort to arms. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It furthers one to undertake something.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

Even if only one inferior man is occupying a ruling position in a city, he is able to oppress superior men.\u00a0 <\/span>Even a single passion still lurking in the heart has power to obscure reason.\u00a0 <\/span>Passion and reason cannot exist side by side – therefore fight without quarter is necessary if the good is to prevail.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

In a resolute struggle of the good against evil, there are, however, definite rules that must not be disregarded, if it is to succeed.\u00a0 <\/span>First, resolution must be based on a union of strength and friendliness.\u00a0 <\/span>Second, a compromise with evil is not possible; evil must under all circumstances be openly discredited.\u00a0 <\/span>Nor must our own passions and shortcomings be glossed over.\u00a0 <\/span>Third, the struggle must not be carried on directly by force.\u00a0 <\/span>If evil is branded, it thinks of weapons, and if we do it the favor of fighting against it blow for blow, we lose in the end because thus we ourselves get entangled in hatred and passion.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

Therefore it is important to begin at home, to be on guard in our own persons against the faults we have branded.\u00a0 <\/span>In this way, finding no opponent, the sharp edges of the weapons of evil become dulled.\u00a0 <\/span>For the same reasons we should not combat our own faults directly.\u00a0 <\/span>As long as we wrestle with them, they continue victorious.\u00a0 <\/span>Finally, the best way to fight evil is to make energetic progress in the good.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

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

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

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

The lake has risen up to heaven: The image of BREAK-THROUGH. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

Dispenses riches downward <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

And refrains from resting on his virtue.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

When the water of a lake has risen up to heaven, there is reason to fear a\u00a0 <\/span>cloudburst.\u00a0 <\/span>Taking this as a warning, the superior man forestalls a violent collapse.\u00a0 <\/span>If a man were to pile up riches for himself alone, without considering others, he would certainly experience a collapse.\u00a0 <\/span>For all gathering is followed by dispersion.\u00a0 <\/span>Therefore the superior man begins to distribute while he is accumulating.\u00a0 <\/span>In the same way, in developing his character he takes care not to become hardened in obstinacy but to remain receptive to impressions by help of strict and continuous self-examination.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
