hi Mike
it's good to see you all again
love the Coelho phrase, as for 22 . . hmm, I really need to get that book by Karcher
anyone else out there with ideas about the relation between 21 and 22?
I'm really intrigued . . I'll be back if I get any ideas myself
Standing initially in the facelessness of Grace, to my mind, provides the structure for immense changes.Thus it becomes Grace, the embellishments and adornments that decorate but don't really change things much.
Hi Frank
Thanks for sharing some more thoughts on the decad perspective. One of your comments has got me really puzzled

Grace - elogance of expression; effortless beauty; courtesy or decency; a place of allowing, of honouring and non judgemental acceptance. Starting any expedition with these things tucked away in my rucksack seems nothing but a bonus in my world. They can be fitted in to any small space remaining between the tent, the cooking equipment, the food supplies, the clinbing equipment, the swiss army knife, and the clean pair of socks and underpants.
Are you really saying that the free and unmerited favor or beneficence of God (in whatever guise people may percieve Him to be) "don't really change things much"?.
If you are able to share your thoughts some more, I'm sure it would help us all.

As discussed on this thread http://www.onlineclarity.co.uk/friends/showthread.php?t=7807
The 'free unmerited favour or beneficence of God' is your personal association to the word 'grace' but it has been argued grace is a poor translation of the title of the hexagram...see link.
we can attach to much weight to the title of 22 as 'Grace' and so be misled into linking it with notions of the Grace of God and so on.
Whilst 21 bites through the suface to find the truth 22 stays on the surface.
You have your rucksack with you with your gear with which you light a campfire. More than any Grace, divine or Kelly you have with you, I would hope you would have a sense of awe facing the dark with the infinite Heavens above you, mountain ranges surrounding you and hardly enough with you to be sure your fire will burn as long as you need it as the tangible security that cold and things that might go bump in the night will not get you. You able to imagine that picture and situation and feeling?
OK, now you turn from staring into the flickering flames of your campfire to turn to the mountain peaks behind (no matter what way you turn--you are in a bit of a valley [archetypal Yin, the dark valley around a mountain--Wieger, S.J.] What do you experience then. The tiny highlights that the light of your campfire is able to put into the gloom of night and brighten up a bit of the magnificence of those peaks--not Klieg lights to bring the summit into bright illumination, just enough of non-darkness to make it clear that when the dawn comes you will be awed and overawed by what you will see.

As experience takes off, its empirical conditions fall away. By the time the arising experience comes to ground in its empirical functioning, its remainder conditions of emergence have already flown for the cracks
Um, because she's sharing a reading?wonder why this was moved from Exploring Divination Rodaki isn't asking for help with the reading just talking about 21 in general and her experience of it.
