One has to care for the ignorant, the formless. It still has unlimited possibilities. Without it, life would die away by lack of renewal.
Blessed are those who have something of this in their mind, how little it may be.
And listen carefully to those who speak from out this unborn thing. They are the true sages. Lao-Tze said: “I am ignorant, like a baby that has never yet laughed ...the people are bright, bright, I alone am dumb, dumb”. (DaoDeJing verse 20).
9 at 2: To care for the ignorant, auspicious. To impregnate the wife, auspicious. Sons sustain the family.
To care for the immature is an investment for the future. Always look for new possibilities and develop them, even if they do not pay yet. Survival needs renewal.
Life is a cycle, it is circular. It begins, it grows, and it goes down again. To make life a straight road to a distant future is a desperate attempt of human mind to make it never-ending. It will not help him – inevitably he will go down some day.
But if man accepts going down as a substantial, important and good part of life, not as a decline but as a indispensable phase, then he makes his living days twice as many.
Do not live as an old man or an old woman, live as a grand old man, a grand old lady. Without regret or fear, but with the riches of wisdom and experience.
This applies to everything, to enterprises, feelings, popularity. In everything all phases are important.
yxeli
elders please
come to the rescue!
yxeli
is 4 saying that you still have something to learn? or you need
to find a teacher. Maybe you need to invest in a CV expert -
some form of retrain or research needed?
28 is saying the burden is too great - I do not understand when
the second hexagram is foreboding as I thought if you followed
the advice of the lines the 2nd hexagram was the outcome?
or is it saying you are overtrained in your field??? elders please
come to the rescue!
haha!!
sorry trojan
ok ok
if i read it backwards that makes sense actually, im overburdened and this is the way out
and also just the changing lines make a lot of sense
sorry for causing such angst!
and i reckon you must be about 1000 yrs old to be in such a bad mood! :hide:
Yx
I asked the Yi just now, 'should i be more disciplined with regard to my music?'
Hexagram 18 unchanging.
In my small understanding, i think this means that i need to develop my own path? that possibly i have been following tradition with my music a little too much?
''Hexagram 18 symbolizes degeneration caused by spiritual neglect and the corrections required to fix the problem; the price of too much cultivation.''
Thanks hopex, yeah i certainly need to use these helpers that you mentioned, really structure my time more. Thanks for replying =)
Thanks Trojan for your time too. much appreciated.
Peas!
Yx
HI i agree with Trojan look for some way out teacher/mentor
type person to open up your range and perspective
when the student is ready the teacher appears - approach
the musician you admire most, take a chance and send off
your stuff to way out places !! maybe in the musis industry
production houses -- outside the box stuff though really -
theatres??
to nitpick I was more anti playing the role of devoted student here. A new teacher might give some help, fresh input, but I see the rest coming from Yxelis (how the heck do you pronounce that..is exee ?) own exploration of her own unknown potential which actually might include throwing off the shakles of some past teachers instructions (4.6)
The 11>3 answer confirms that for me (in another thread)
