The Judgement

The Family. The perseverance of the woman furthers.

The Image

Wind comes forth from fire:
The image of The Family.
Thus the superior man has substance in his words
And duration in his way of life.

The Lines

Six in the second place means:
She should not follow her whims.
She must attend within to the food.
Perseverance brings good fortune.

Nine in the third place means:
When tempers flare up in the family,
Too great severity brings remorse.
Good fortune nonetheless.
When woman and child dally and laugh,
It leads in the end to humiliation.

61. Chung Fu / Inner Truth

The Judgement

Inner Truth. Pigs and fishes.
Good fortune.
It furthers one to cross the great water.
Perseverance furthers.

The Image

Wind over lake: the image of Inner Truth.
Thus the superior man discusses criminal cases
In order to delay executions.
