6 Dispute

The Statement of the second hexagram

Dispute: keep confident

even if blocked and alarmed.

In the middle, good fortune,

but in the end, misfortune.

Gain by seeing a great person.

Do not advance across the great river.

The noble one

dispute. The noble one
devises the right beginning
