I came across this today.....or perhaps it came across me, but anyway and immediately thought of Hex 25 Innocence / Without Embroiling / Not Entangled.
*squinting*
*rubbing eyes*
. . what happened to the pipe player?
Bro, you should change your name to Chong-cat...
I'm much better now.
You'll find the connection here:
Much more appropriate to its use in the Yi is the more fundamental meaning of duplicity, falseness, artificiality, etc. And nowhere does it even remotely concern the "spooky action at a distance" of quantum physics.
For h25, for example, matter behaves differently when it is observed, in that, that which is happening all around will be observed as being or occurring in a single place. The wave function breaks down into particles (particulars), becoming observable but only within a contextual field.
Strange also that you use the word spooky.....now where did that come from?
Meng I like your input here. There is certainly a lot of fun to be had playing with these comparisons of the old and new sciences.
So once you have observed the behaviour (seen it for what it really is) then you can disentangle yourself from it. However, you are not necessarily going to know the outcome of what the act of disentanglement will bring for you.The speed and size of what the change is, is not discernable. Now that is spooky !!!

The average man seeks certainty in the eyes of the onlooker and calls that self-confidence. The warrior seeks impeccability in his own eyes and calls that humbleness. The average man is hooked to his fellow men, while the warrior is hooked only to himself. You're after the self-confidence of the average man, when you should be after the humbleness of a warrior. The difference between the two is remarkable. Self-confidence entails knowing something for sure; humbleness entails being impeccable in one's actions and feelings.
Seeing must be direct, for a warrior can't use his time to unravel what he himself is seeing . Seeing is seeing because it cuts through all that nonsense. In the beginning seeing is confusing and it's easy to get lost in it. As the warrior gets tighter, however, his seeing becomes what it should be, a direct knowing. A warrior asks a question, and through his seeing he gets an answer, but the answer is simple.
I couldn't agree with you more............... just as i was going under along comes a life boat named Paulo CoelhoWe're really out of both of our depths here, but no harm in swimming around, lol.
The warrior of light unwittingly takes a false step and plunges into the abyss.
Ghosts frighten him and solitude torments him. His aim had been to fight the Good Fight, and he never imagined that this would happen to him, but it did. Shrouded in darkness he makes contact with his master.
" Master, I have fallen into the abyss" he says. "the waters are deep and dark"
" Remember one thing " replies the master. " You do not drown simply by plunging into water, you only drown if you stay beneath the surface."
And the warrior uses all his strength to escape from his predicament.
Carlos has been called to answer for a lot of things, but surely you are not going to lay a plate of burnt spaghetti at his door. The price of vanity is a burnt plate of spaghetti.........now how profound is thatdagnabbit, I just burned my spaghetti!

Einstein always objected to quantum mechanics because his metaphysical realism recoiled from the idea that observation would create a different kind of reality than what existed independently. At first Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle could be interpreted as meaning that the act of observation would physically disturb a system in an ordinary and realistic way, but then it soon became evident that strange things were allowed to happen in the wave function that not only could not be observed but could not even be conceived in ordinary and realistic ways. Reality existed in a different way while under observation than it did in itself.
Quantum entanglement, also called the quantum non-local connection, is a property of a quantum mechanical state of a system of two or more objects in which the quantum states of the constituting objects are linked together so that one object can no longer be adequately described without full mention of its counterpart—even if the individual objects are spatially separated in a spacelike manner.
Does this relate to h25? Not in the same sense as the title of this thread suggests, because entanglement, in the quantum sense, involves connections to things such as intuition and premonition.
And so we set out with the beast and his horns
And his crazy description of home.
After many days journey we came to a peak
Where the beast gazed abroad and cried out.
We followed his gaze and we thought maybe we saw
A spire of gold - no, a trick of the eye that's all,
But the beast was gone and a voice was heard:
They've got no horns and they've got no tail
They don't even know of our existence
Am I wrong to believe in a city of gold
That lies in the deep distance, he cried

Yes I agree.However, associating "entanglement" to hex 25 is hardly universal or essential. The notion that everything returned by a keyword search must be relevant is also a specialized belief. In most commentary, the hexagram is associated with negation of entanglement and any application of entanglement is seen as a difficulty.
This seems to be about Interaction with reality in an authentic way, doing the right things for the right reasons at the right time. When you say the yin lines are "only in the background", for me this underplays their role. In many ways true authentic ways come from the inner world of lines 2 and 3. And yes I do see authenticity as being fluid to it's context, in a way being wholeheartedly sincere to what is before us.Hexagram 25 is about initial conditions and the results that follow from the interaction with reality which can be seen in quantum mechanics and cooking mishaps as well. Also in discussion threads and their development. It is a hexagram of abstract process (four Yang lines) with its specific meaning controlled by the two open Yin spaces (local structure or organization and personal passion) which are only in the background allowing the overall process to be fluid.
what sets us off is the need to neutralise different perspectives and in doing so re-affirm our own - as such there is a hidden element of entanglement in remaining entangled to one's point of view by disentangling from the communal point of view.
Nooo!!! The Chong-cat was IT! Pass the pipe.
Maybe something like this?IOW the grounding is in a communal context of some 'celebration of faith/belief' etc where that communal nature is 'upset' by someone standing to assert their point of view regardless of the consequences or not even aware of consequences - the latter covering Wilhelm's association with 'innocence' etc.
