彖 said: Great is the Qianyuan Dynasty, when all things come into being, they unite the heavens. Clouds move and rain spreads, and goods are popular. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, six people came into being, riding on six dragons to control the sky. When the main roads change, each person's life will be rectified and the harmony will be maintained, which is beneficial to chastity. The first common people came out of Xianning in all countries.
Xiang said: Heaven moves vigorously, and a gentleman strives to constantly strive for self-improvement.
Don’t use Qianlong, because the Yang is down. Seeing a dragon in the field means De Shi Pu. Work hard all day long and repeat the Tao. Or leaping into the abyss, there is no fault in advancing. The flying dragon is in the sky, and the master has made it. A strong dragon has regrets, and it will not be long before it becomes profitable. If you use nine, Heavenly virtue cannot be the first.
Wenyan said: "Yuan means the growth of goodness, prosperity means the gathering of good people, profit means the harmony of righteousness, chastity means the ability to do things. A gentleman's benevolence is enough to grow others; Jiahui. Sufficient for propriety; Sufficient for good things; Sufficient for righteousness; Sufficient for doing things with integrity. Therefore, it is said: Qian, Yuan Henry Zhen."
" Qianlong said. Don't use it. "What does it mean?"
Confucius said: "The dragon's virtue is hidden. It is not easy to live in the world, and it is impossible to achieve fame. There is no boredom in hiding from the world, and there is no boredom if you don't see what is right. If you are happy, you will do it, if you are worried, you will go against it. It is indeed inextricable. , Hidden Dragon."
Jiu Er said: "Seeing a dragon in the field is a good thing to see an adult." What does that mean?
Confucius said: "Dragon virtue is the one who is right in the middle. Trust in what is said, prudence in deeds, sincerity in idleness, kindness in the world without attacking, virtue and virtue are transformed. Yi said: 'Seeing the Dragon In the field, it is beneficial to see the master. "Jiu San said: "A gentleman works hard all day long, and he is alert at night." What does it mean?
Confucius said: "A gentleman develops virtue and cultivates his career. He is loyal and faithful, so he advances in virtue. Rhetoric establishes his sincerity, so he lives in his career. Knowing the ultimate is what can be done with him. Knowing the ultimate is what can be done with him. It is also a matter of preserving righteousness. Therefore, if you are in a superior position, you will not be arrogant, and if you are in a lower position, you will not be worried. Because you are alert at all times, you will not be guilty even if you are in danger. In the abyss, there is no blame. "What does it mean?"
Confucius said: "Up and down are impermanent, which is not evil. Advances and retreats are inconstant, and they are not out of the crowd. A gentleman advances in virtue and cultivates his career in a timely manner, so there is no blame."
Nine Wu said: "The flying dragon is in the sky, which is good for seeing adults." What does it mean?
Confucius said: "The same voice corresponds to the same breath, the same breath seeks each other; the water flows moistly, and the fire dries; the clouds follow the dragon, the wind follows the tiger. The sage makes it, and all things can be seen. The one who is originally from heaven kisses up, and the original earth is flat. Those who kiss each other will follow their own kind."
Shangjiu said: "A dragon has regrets." What does it mean?
Confucius said: "A noble person has no position, a high person has no people, and a wise person is below but has no help. This is why he has regrets when he moves."
Don't use Qianlong, he will also be below. . When you see a dragon in the field, you will leave it alone. Work all day long and do things. Or jump into the abyss and try yourself. The flying dragon is in the sky, and it governs the world. A strong dragon has regrets, which is the disaster of poverty. Qian Yuan uses nine to govern the world.
Do not use Hidden Dragon, as Yang Qi is hidden. Seeing a dragon in the field brings civilization to the world. Work hard all day long and keep pace with the times. Or jump in the abyss, the main road is leather. The flying dragon is in the sky, and it is worthy of heavenly virtue. A strong dragon has regrets, and it goes hand in hand with the times. Qian Yuan uses nine to see the laws of heaven.
Those who started in Qianyuan are those who prospered from the beginning. The one who benefits chastity is the temperament. Qian Shi can benefit the world with beauty and profit, without saying what he will benefit. How great! What are you doing? Strong and upright, pure and refined. The six lines are used to express emotions. At that time, he rode six dragons to control the sky. When the clouds move and rain comes, the world will be peaceful.
A gentleman conducts himself with virtue, and his conduct will be seen day by day. Hidden is just words, hidden but not seen, acted but not completed, so a gentleman cannot use it.
A gentleman learns by gathering things together, asks questions by debating them, is generous by staying in them, and is benevolent by practicing them. Yi said: "Seeing a dragon in the field is a good way to meet a great person." It is also a virtue of the king.
Ninety-three, emphasizing the strong but not the middle, the top is not in the sky, the bottom is not in the fields, and the middle is not in the people, so it is possible. Or, it is doubtful, so there is no blame. Sir, you should be in harmony with the heaven and earth in its virtues, in harmony with the sun and the moon in its brightness, in harmony with the four seasons in its order, and in harmony with the ghosts and gods in its good and bad fortunes. The world is under heaven first, and it is not against the sky. The day after tomorrow, it is up to heaven. It's not against Heaven, but what about humans? What about ghosts and gods?
Knowing how to advance does not know how to retreat, knowing how to survive but not knowing how to lose, knowing how to gain but not knowing how to lose. Is he just a saint? Is he a saint who knows how to advance, retreat, and survive without losing his integrity?

The word "Tong Liu" means "Tong Liu", which means that all the yin lines are "yang". ②The word "zhen" is divination question. The meaning of "Xiangci" is "zhongzheng", which is different from the meaning of the classics.
The original text of the eleventh sentence in "Wenyan" says: "Kun is soft and strong, quiet and virtuous". , after gaining the master, there will be eternal life, containing all things and turning into light. Killing his father did not happen overnight, it happened gradually. It is said in "Yi": "When you walk on the frost, the ice will come." "Gai Yan is obedient ③. Straight is what is right, and square is righteous ④. A gentleman respects the straight inside, and righteousness is outward ⑤. Respecting righteousness and virtue is not isolated. "Straight, square, big, and not accustomed to it, there is no disadvantage. " Then there is no doubt about what he is doing. Although Yin has beauty, if he contains it, he will not dare to do things for the king. The earth is also the wife's way, and the minister's way. The earth's way is not accomplished, but the generation has its end. 6. Changes in heaven and earth , the grass and trees are closed, the wise people are hidden. "Yi" says: "There is no blame or reputation." "This is a sincere statement. The gentleman Huang Zhongtongli ⑦ is in the body ⑧, and the beauty is in it. It is smooth in the four branches, and it is the most beautiful thing in the career. Yin is suspicious of yang ⑨, and it must be fought. If it is suspected, it will be in vain. Yang is ⑩, so it is called Longyan. It is not separated from its category, so it is called Xueyan. Inherit the way of heaven, and change after the change of heaven. ② Transformation of light, the transformation of all things, its way is vast. ④ Straight, upright, and not evil. , straight, means to keep the mind straight. ⑤ zhi nei, zhi, is used as a verb, to correct. Fang wai, is used as a verb, to regulate behavior. ⑥ The Tao is not accomplished but has an end. The Tao cannot independently complete the work of biochemical things, but can only play a consistent role in the change of time. ⑦ Huang Zhongtongli, the author of "Wenyan" named Huang Shang. , It is a metaphor for the virtuous person. Huang Zhongyue said that he has a good heart and understands the truth. ⑧The right position means being loyal to one's duty. "The words of doubt are imitated. "Zhu Xi said: "I doubt that Jun is an enemy with no big or small differences. "⑩Mr. Sha Shaohai said: "The "Jijie" quoted Gou Shuang as not having the word "无", so it should be deleted. "Shuowen": "Suspicion, suspicion". ’ Here, I think Ying Xun is evenly matched, so Xun Xiu. ”
The translation of "Classic Chinese" says: The earth is extremely soft but its movement is strong. It is extremely quiet but its character is square. The earth moves after the way of heaven, but its movement is regular. It is inclusive. The biological and chemical effects of all things are vast. How pliant the earth is! Those who accumulate good deeds will have endless good fortune; those who accumulate bad deeds will have endless disasters. Killing his king, and a son killing his father, did not happen overnight, so this situation is the result of gradual development. The "Book of Changes" says: "Trampling on the thin frost, the thick ice is about to freeze. . "It's probably a gradual phenomenon.
Honesty is the integrity of intentions, and Fang is the morality of actions. A gentleman corrects deviations in his thinking through respect and prudence, and regulates deviations in behavior with moral principles. Once the spirit of respect and morality is established, his moral character will have a wide impact. A gentleman is "upright, upright, and knowledgeable. These qualities are not understood by people, and there is nothing disadvantageous about them." Because people will not doubt his behavior. Yin is a metaphor for ministers. Although they have virtues, they should hide their virtues deeply in order to serve the king and not dare to claim meritorious service. This is an authentic principle, and it is also the principle of the way of wife, and it is also the principle of the way of subjection. The tunnel alone cannot complete the task of giving birth to all things, but it always plays a role consistently in the alternation of time. When the communication between heaven and earth changes, vegetation will flourish; when heaven and earth are blocked, wise men will retreat. "Book of Changes" says: "Tighten your pockets, just like keeping silent. There is no blame or praise." Probably meant to be cautious. A gentleman has a beautiful heart, is knowledgeable about affairs, conducts his duties neatly, and abides by etiquette. The virtues are accumulated in his heart, implemented in his actions, and expanded in his career. This is the most beautiful thing. Yin and Yang are evenly matched, and a fight is inevitable. Because the Yin pole is strong and equal to Yang, so Yin and Yang are called dragon together. In fact, Yin does not break away from its category, so it is also called blood, and blood is the category of Yin. The so-called Xuanhuang - Tianxuandihuang - is the color of heaven and earth.
Full hexagram content? "Kun Gua" consists of underground and above ground. The hexagram "Kun: Yuan, Heng, benefits the chastity of the female horse. A gentleman has a future. He is lost first, and gained later, the main benefit is. Friends are gained in the southwest, friends are lost in the northeast. Anzhenji", the first sentence is that "Kun Gua" is also It has the meaning of Yuanshi, vastness and prosperity. Since "Kun" is a Yin hexagram, it is conducive to the integrity of the supple female horse. In the second sentence, the sentence is usually punctuated as "A gentleman has a promising future, first loses his friends and then wins, and he makes friends by the south." This is actually wrong. Because this term is used under the modification of "gentleman". As we mentioned many times before, the term "gentleman" does not specifically refer to people with high moral standards, but refers to "lords", "kings" and "hous". is a synonym for ", so it is inappropriate to punctuate this sentence as "A gentleman has a bright future, first he is lost, and then he wins." If the punctuation is like this, the phrase "the queen will get the master" will inevitably become the meaning of a good minister getting a wise master or a concubine getting a wise master. In fact, "confused first, gained later" means that "gentlemen" or "adults" are always a little confused and confused at the beginning of their actions; but because "gentlemen" and "adults" always "work all day long" and strive for self-improvement, There is a "later gain" ending. Because of this, this hexagram "maintains benefit". "To gain friends from the southwest, to lose friends from the northeast", this directional term is often used in the "Book of Changes". Specifically, it is related to the situation of the Jizhou Dynasty, that is, it is related to the development and management of the Hanshui Yangtze River Basin in the southwest by the Jizhou Dynasty. The Li State in the northeast (today's Licheng area in Shanxi Province) was an enemy. The last sentence "An Zhenji" means that if you can stay on the right path, it will be auspicious.
The sixth day of the lunar month? The "sixth day of the lunar month" line "walks on frost, and the solid ice arrives" means that it is in the early stage of "Kun Gua", that is, the beginning period of everything, just like in the frosty land and severe winter. Not easy.
Six Two? The "Six Two" line of "Six Two" means "it's straight and big, and if you don't get used to it, there will be no disadvantage". It means that when doing anything, as long as you insist on integrity, act in a round and round manner, and have broad morals. Karma, even if there is no need to practice anything else, it is smooth enough and unobstructed. The term "Zhi Fang Da" here refers to the temperament of a "gentleman" or "an adult". It can also be said to be a synonym for "Han Zhang" in the next sentence.
Liu San? The "Liu San" line "contains chapters, which can be chastity; or if you work for the king, there is no success, and there is an end." The first half of the sentence has the meaning of following the next line, which means that as long as If these "gentlemen" and "adults" themselves have a certain level of cultural knowledge, a certain degree of moral cultivation, and are commendable in appearance and quality, they can establish a good image among people and lead them to follow the correct path. The second half of the sentence means that when the conditions are not yet mature, if you want to engage in the career of king and emperor, it will definitely be unsuccessful, but there will be a good ending in the end. This line has a concept of time and space, which is similar to the "92" line of "Qian Gua" saying "seeing a dragon in the field" and the "93" line saying "a gentleman works all day long" and the words in this period The usage of "Tun Gua" says "You may do things for the king, but you won't succeed".
June 4th? The "June 4th" line "to include all, no blame and no honor" means that the "adults" and "gentlemen" who strive for supremacy in the world should have the ambition to "encompass the world." , annexing the heart of the Eight Desolations." At this time, the feathers are already full, and no one can do anything. The measures at this time will not receive much praise, but there will be no disaster. This line is actually similar to the meaning and usage of the "Nine-Four" line in "Qian Gua", "If you jump into the abyss, there is no blame". When understanding this line, you must not forget the space-time concept of this line, which is the same as the time-space concept of the "63" line mentioned above. Another problem is that the "Qian" hexagram uses the dragon's metamorphosis in different time and space to metaphor the changes in things, while the "Kun" hexagram replaces these metamorphoses with "gentlemen", "adults", "or from the king's affairs" and " Direct action changes such as "Kun" have caused people to ignore the time and space evolution of the "Kun" hexagram, and at the same time, they have also ignored the essential content of each line of this hexagram.
The Sixth Five-Year Plan? The "Huang Shang, Yuan Ji" in the "Sixth Five-Year Plan" line means that it has conquered the world at this time and has reached a period of prosperity. It is expected to be good and prosperous at this time. This line is actually similar to the "95" line of the hexagram "Qian", "The flying dragon is in the sky, it is good to see the adults".
Shang Liu? The line "Shang Liu" in "Shang Liu" says "dragons fight in the wild, their blood is black and yellow". This line refers to the battle between two dragons. This line may directly refer to the relationship between the Ji Zhou Dynasty and the Yin Shang Dynasty. Fight to the death. But when understanding this line, we must not forget the "Shangjiu" line of "Qian Gua" that "the dragon has regrets", which means that when things develop to the limit, they will be in danger of destruction. This refers to the regrets of the Yin and Shang dynasties. It also refers to the regrets of the Ji Zhou Dynasty. It is said in "Xiao Guo" that "flying birds bring harm" and "if you don't guard against them, follow or kill them", as well as the hexagrams "Ji Ji" and "Wei Ji" say "Little Fox Ji" means "moisten its head". That's all. The "Yong Liu" line of "Utilize Zhen" is one and a half sentences. This line has the meaning of following the next line. That is to say, in this extraordinary period of "dragons fighting in the wild", only by adhering to chastity can we turn evil into evil. For good luck. This line also has the meaning of "Yongjiu" line in "Qian Gua", which means "seeing a group of dragons without a leader is auspicious". The author is happy to see the transition between the old and the new and the changes of the times, but here he particularly emphasizes the word "utilizing Zhen".
