Zhouyi-book of change explanation (25)Kun ~ Wen yuan says
As the saying goes, there are only mention two Gua in the whole book, one is Qian Palace and the other is Kun Gua. Kun’s WenYan is better than the Qian Palace WenYan. Standing in my personal position, it is a bit better.
文言曰：坤至柔而動也剛，至靜而德方，後得主而有常，含萬物而化光。坤其道順乎？承天而時行。
The classical saying: that Kun is the most supple, but it is healthy when it is active; the most quiet, but the virtue can be all over places; its final actions only touched the master, and kept a constant law; inclusive of everything, and metaphor. Isn't Kun Dao not complying with it? It follows the celestial body and is performed in chronological order.
It is a very emotional record. When the timeline is a solar term, the entire operation of this earth in terms of solar terms is probably nomadic in this generation. Now it is, and now the Mongolian nomads are also in accordance with the solar terms. When cattle and sheep were caught, so was Australia. After the bulls were raised and they were slaughtered and eaten, the cows were bred. They burned a mark with a iron, send out to eat grass, and came back to kill. They wanted to fight with Australia Animal husbandry has no way to fight, and it is now fulfilling. Milk powder has risen by 100%. Because Australia has been in drought for a hundred years, those cattle are thirsty without water and no milk. This shows how important this season is. Therefore, it was the same time, and Australia, too, milk powder rose 100%.
積善之家，必有餘慶，積不善之家，必有餘殃。臣弒其君，子弒其父，非一朝一夕之故，其所由來者漸矣，由辯之不早辯也。
Those who have accumulated good deeds will surely remain happy. Those who have accumulated evil acts will surely leave behind their misfortune. Like the killing of the king by the courtiers and the murder of his father by his son, this great sin was not formed overnight, but it was accumulated over a long period of time. It was simply because it was not identified as early as possible. "Book of Changes" said: "Treating frost is frozen." It is the trend of development of things.
The debate should be advanced, and latter on just with a little explanation. It was a phenomenon at that time.
易曰：[履霜，堅冰至。] 蓋言順也，直其正也，方其義也。君子敬以直內，義以方外，敬義立而德不孤。[直，方，大，不習，無不利。]則不疑其所行也。陰雖有美，含之，以從王事，弗敢成也。地道也。妻道也，臣道也。地道無成而代有終也。天地變化，草木蕃，天地閉，賢人隱。
Yi says: [ on froze , ice to come. ] when speak of smooth, straight to the right, square straight also. The gentleman respects straightness, and the righteousness to outside. [Straight, square, big, not learning, no disadvantage. ] Do not doubt what it does. Although yin has beauty, including it, from the king's affairs, not dare into it. Earth way, is wife’s way, is officer way. There is no end to the tunnel. Changes in the world, grass and trees, heaven and earth closed, sage hidden.
So later I took Kun as mother, here wife and Dao also, you have a wife, to say that the married woman is called his wife. Therefore, it is normal for a wife to have a child and become a mother. Therefore, it's normal to have be mother who is married, and if is not married when the child was born, that child must be the son of God. It used to be like this in the past!
天地變化，草木蕃 -
World changes, grass and wood Fan. Fan is a lush idea.
天地閉。
Heaven and earth are closed. There is no cheerfulness or freedom in this area.
賢人隱-
The wise people hide. If you are not free and open but very capable, you must withdraw from this political circle and withdraw from this society.
易曰：括囊，無咎無譽，蓋言謹也。
君子黃中通理，正位居禮，美在其中，而暢于四支，發于事業，美之至也。
Yi says: Envelopment, no ambiguity and no reputation.
The gentleman understand and knowledgeable is in the right position, and the beauty is in it, but he is active in career and sent to the cause.
In the business, things are two systems, this thing, industry, execution, this thing, but you must go to perform this business. Something without performed, that thing will always exist, no one will perform,
陰疑于陽，必戰。
Yin question yang, must fight.
A movement is a kind of cross meaning, yin and yang should have a cross meaning.
馬其嫌于無陽也，故稱龍焉。
A horse is also suspected of no Yang, so it is called Long.
The place where this battle is called is Long Xuan. It is said that for now, like thunder, it is a yin and a yang down, then in the previous yin, why does the sky produce dragons? It must have a land. It only has the appearance of a dragon. If there is no land or rain, it cannot produce the appearance of a dragon. Then, the emergence of a dragon, it is described as a thunder and war.
猶未離其類也
It’s still not like this kind, this place is just a space for imagination.
故稱血焉，夫玄黃者，天地之雜也，天玄而地黃
It is called blood stasis, Xuan Huang, heaven and earth are also mixed, the day mysterious and yellow.
The mysterious yellow earth covers the description. If the sky is dark, then what is the phenomenon in the Loess Plateau? Sandstorm. Black is called Xuan. Sometimes there are many things, and its records may only mention a little inside.
