26 Great Restraint

The Statement of the first hexagram

Gain by being upright.
Not eating at home brings fortune.
Advance across the great river.

The changing lines

The third line:
A good horse chases, but gain is difficult.
Be upright. Prepare the chariots daily
and be on guard.
Gain by having a place to go.
The fifth line:
A gelded hog's teeth.
Favorable.
The sixth line:
Where is heaven's thoroughfare?
Go through it.

60 Regulation

The Statement of the second hexagram

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

The Image of the first hexagram

Heaven in the center of a
mountain: great restraint.
The noble one
frequently studies
the words and prophesies
of the past, and thereby
nourishes virtue.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

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