Those without such truth suffer calamity
and do not gain no matter where they go.

12 Clogging
The Statement of the second hexagram
Clogging by wicked people.

The Image of the first hexagram
Thunder moves
under heaven: all the world
is innocent. The ancient

in nourishing
the myriad things.

The Image of the second hexagram
Heaven and earth
separate: clogging.
The noble one acts
with self-restraint
in the face
of punishing hardship,
and avoids glory or riches.
