52 Stilling

The Statement of the first hexagram

One stills one's back
and does not move one's body.
There is movement in one's courtyard,
but one does not see one's people.
No fault.

The changing lines

The second line:
Stilling one's calves.
One cannot raise one's followers.
One's heart is unhappy.
The third line:
Stilling one's waist.
Splitting the muscles of the back.
Cruelty smokes one's heart.
The fourth line:
Stilling his trunk.
No fault.

64 Not Yet Across

The Statement of the second hexagram

Not yet across. Continue.

The young fox, nearly across,

soaks its tail.

No place is gainful.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Doubled mountains:
stillness.
The noble one
does not consider matters
beyond his position.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Fire on top of water:
not yet across. The wise
one distinguishes things
carefully, and puts them
in their places.
