47 Distress

The Statement of the first hexagram

Distress. Continue.
For a pure and great person: fortune.
No fault. What is said is not trusted.

The changing lines

The first line:
Buttocks distressed by tree stumps.
Entering a dark ravine.
For three harvests, meeting no one.
The fourth line:
Progress is gradual.
Distressed in a metal car.
Regret will end.

60 Regulation

The Statement of the second hexagram

Regulation. Be pervasive.
One cannot be morally pure
through suffering and trial.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

A lake without water:
distress. The noble one
devotes her life
to fulfill her will.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Water above the lake:
regulation. The noble one
regulates number and
measure and discusses
virtuous conduct.
