60 Regulation
The Statement of the first hexagram
Regulation. Be pervasive.
One cannot be morally pure
through suffering and trial.
The changing lines
The second line:

The fifth line:
Willing regulation: fortune.
Go: there will be honor.
24 Returning
The Statement of the second hexagram
Returning. Continue.
In coming and going,
there is neither sickness nor distress.
Companions come without fault.
Returning is its Tao.
In seven days, returning comes.
Gain by having a place to go.
The Image of the first hexagram
Water above the lake:
regulation. The noble one
regulates number and
measure and discusses
virtuous conduct.

Thunder in the center of
the earth: returning.
The ancient kings
closed the borders
during the solstices.
Traveling merchants
did not journey. Sovereigns
