60 Regulation

The Statement of the first hexagram

Regulation. Be pervasive.
One cannot be morally pure
through suffering and trial.

The changing lines

The first line:
Not leaving the front hall:
no fault.
The third line:
Unrestrained in regulations:
unrestrained sighing.
No fault.

48 Well

The Statement of the second hexagram

Well. A city may change,

but the well does not.

It does not lose, it does not gain.

In spite of all who come and go from a well,

it remains a well.

But if the rope cannot reach,

or if the well's vase is upended:_

misfortune.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Water above the lake:
regulation. The noble one
regulates number and
measure and discusses
virtuous conduct.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Wood above water: well.
The noble one encourages
the people and lends them
assistance.
