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.

Beholding my life:

the wise person rids herself of faults.

In beholding others' lives

the wise person allows no faults.

2 Earth

The Statement of the second hexagram

Earth: maker, everywhere.
Gain from a mare's purity.
The noble one wanting to go far
is first confused, but later finds guidance.
Gain friends in the west and south,
Lose friends in the east and north.
Peace: this is a sign of fortune.
 
 

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

Ground as the power
of earth:
the noble one generously
supports all things.
