36 Smothered Light
The Statement of the first hexagram
Smothered light.
Gain is difficult: persist.
The changing lines
The fourth line:
Enter at the left front, capturing
the heart of smothered light.
Going in and out of gates and halls.
The sixth line:
Not a bright night.
First rise into the sky,
then plunge into the earth.
30 Brilliance
The Statement of the second hexagram
Brilliance. Gainful purity.
Continue.
Tame the bull: fortune.
The Image of the first hexagram
Brilliance
in the earth's core:
smothered light.
The noble one
governs the multitude
by obscurity-
but with enlightenment.
The Image of the second hexagram
Brightness doubled:
brilliance. The great person
spreads his brilliance
to illuminate
all four directions.
