"You are the product of everything you put into your body and mind. In it's static form NOURISHING is perfectly balanced. The upper trigram, KEN, stillness meditates upon the new growth quickened by the lower trigram, CHEN, arousing. If you are satisfied with the state of your inquiry, then continue your input habits, for they are producing the current situation. If you are discontent then you must seriously alter your appetites."
Don't know whats gonna happen, but i meditate every day now)
Maybe the 27uc is just saying, "Hunger." Like, "hunger," period-end-of-sentence, without any promises of what your hunger (committment to be there) would get you?
Or maybe more like "you will need a lot of "hunger" (motivation/desire/committment) to see this through?
Maybe the latter, since in the end you were glad you persevered and even felt a bit triumphant about it?
We spoke of synchronicities on another thread....well I came across this song....which isn't that widely played twice in one day recently
Did/do you feel as if you "needed" the night out? Even after all the tribulations getting there, did you feel "nourished" by it?
People say that Yi sometimes addresses something deeper than the question being asked - do you think this was an example of that? Am torn between that, and what you said about Yi tossing it back at you with a shrug, like, "Well, you know you don't have to do this." Or do you think 27uc covered both bases at once?

Maybe the bear had the right idea ?
In keeping with 27uc having to do with necessity - has anyone had any experiences of 27uc meaning "NOT necessary"? In the sense of Yi saying, "It's not necessary for you to worry about or deal with" the subject of the question?
It seems far-fetched to me. But I recently asked what ended up to be an obscene number of questions about something, without ever getting anywhere...27uc was the very first reading, and if Yi was telling me it's "not necessary" for me to worry about it, then no wonder nothing that followed made any sense or resolved the issue.
As I said, I think it's probably too much of a stretch. Just wondering if anyone's had any experiences.
Yi seems to me to have many ways to say "well what do you think ?" and 27uc is one of them. The most concrete experience I have of it was on asking about what I needed to know about using support groups for something. I felt that time Yi took the question, returned it, replying "well what do you need it for ? What do you need from it ? Does it, will it, how will it feed you ? " I think I was being directed to consider clearly what my needs were and how and if such groups could nourish those requirements. I think I'd asked "what do I need to know about these support groups in general ?" .....and Yi said "well whaddya want ? ". At least it clarified my thought processes....my task being to consider my needs which I suppose should have been obvious..and yet wasn't quite till it was pointed out, plainly by 27uc. Sometimes I think unchanging casts do have this underlined quality, stark and simple, perhaps 'emphatic'.
I don't think it's far fetched as it's what I spoke of in my initial post on this thread.
thus the superior man is careful of his words
And temperate in eating and drinking
...was thinking if 27 in your case could be about the "narrative" in your mind regarding that issue. [...] [M]aybe Yi was trying to make you re-frame the issue ? ... or just cool down a bit ?
Explaining what it meant is NOT Yi's strong suit. Therefore, I do not see politeness (or beating around the bush, or whatever) as a productive tactic (and, in fact, Yi is often not polite at all).
.
I asked just now " Yi, how you respond?" 43.1.2.4.5>15 . I wish not to derail this thread but I'm just mention that reading because there is a kind of overlap between h15 and 27 discussion and the "temperate" part
