So I just joined a new sport, a martial art. Seems to be going quite well. I'm very involved.

Is it going well? (all WB translations)
23.3.4 Stripping Away > 56 The Traveler
.3: “He peels them all off -- no error.
.4: “The bed is split up to the skin . Misfortune.
Huh. I think the .3 refers to the fact that I'm getting more athletic generally and 'peeling off' an old non-athletic way of being. I'm "traveling" to the new land of this sport.
But I'm not sure what the ominous .4 refers to.

Can you elaborate on the .4?
50.2.4 The Cauldron > 52 Keeping Still
.2: “There is food in the cauldron. My comrades are envious, but they cannot harm me. Good fortune.
.4: “The legs of the cauldron are broken. The prince's meal is spilled and his person soiled. Misfortune.
This is too mysterious for me to get... Something to do with envy?

Can you please just elaborate/restate in a more concrete way?
50.2.5 The Cauldron > 33 Retreat
.2: “There is food in the cauldron. My comrades are envious, but they cannot harm me. Good fortune.
.5: “The cauldron has yellow handles, golden carrying rings. Perseverance furthers.

More mysterious yet. There's a kind of parallel between the "cooking" (50) process and a withdrawal or leaving (52/33).

Every reading also has at least one good line. "No error," and "good fortune" and "perseverance furthers."

I'm pretty befuddled. Any thoughts?

Is it a sport or is it a martial art?
(they are not the same)

I'd look out for accidental injury caused by another student or even the teacher.
(because, though their rank is higher, they are the ones serving)
