What new will appear from spirit?
and received a response of:
20 Beholding
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.
The changing lines
The fourth line:
Beholding our nation's glory:
make good use
of an audience with the king.
The sixth line:
In beholding others' lives
the wise person allows no faults.
45 Collecting
The Statement of the second hexagram
The king draws near to the temple:
gain by seeing a great person.
Make an offering with purity,
using great sacrificial beasts. Fortune.
Gain by having a place to go.
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
Lake above the earth.
Collecting. The noble one
collects the tools of war
to guard against
unforeseen danger.
