The path of joy?
and received a response of:
59 Spreading
The Statement of the first hexagram
Spreading.
The king draws near to the temple.
Advance across the great river.
Gainful purity.
The changing lines
The first line:
By the saving strength of a horse.
Fortune.
The second line:
Spreading and going directly toward
his platform. Regrets vanish.
The fourth line:
Spreading his flock. Great fortune.
Expanding and there are mounds.
No common person can understand this.
25 Innocence
The Statement of the second hexagram
Innocence: from the first, all must be
pervasive, gainful, and pure.
Those without such truth suffer calamity
and do not gain no matter where they go.
The Image of the first hexagram
Wind moving above water:
spreading.
The ancient kings made
sacrificial offerings to God
and established temples.
The Image of the second hexagram
Thunder moves
under heaven: all the world
is innocent. The ancient
kings paid close attention
to the time
in nourishing
the myriad things.
