how can I heal totally?
and received a response of:
20 Beholding
The Statement of the first hexagram
Behold! The hands have been washed,
but the offering has not yet been made.
Be sincere and dignified in appearance.
The changing lines
The fourth line:
Beholding our nation's glory:
make good use
of an audience with the king.
The fifth line:
Beholding my life:
the wise person rids herself of faults.
The sixth line:
In beholding others' lives
the wise person allows no faults.
16 Delight
The Statement of the second hexagram
What delight!
Gain by naming allies.
Move armies.
The Image of the first hexagram
The wind moving above
the earth: beholding.
The ancient kings
inspected the provinces
and territories to establish
the right teachings.
The Image of the second hexagram
Thunder explodes,
shaking the earth: delight.
The early kings made music,
glorifying virtue as the
highest offering to God,
and so they were worthy
of their ancestors.
