30 Brilliance

The Statement of the first hexagram

Brilliance. Gainful purity.
Continue.
Tame the bull: fortune.

The changing lines

The fourth line:
This abrupt arrival is like a blaze
that flares and dies, then is forgotten.
The sixth line:
The king goes to battle.
Admirably, he humbles the chieftains
and captures vile rebels. No fault.

36 Smothered Light

The Statement of the second hexagram

Smothered light.

Gain is difficult: persist.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Brightness doubled:
brilliance. The great person
spreads his brilliance
to illuminate
all four directions.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Brilliance
in the earth's core:
smothered light.
The noble one
governs the multitude
by obscurity-
but with enlightenment.
