Beginners in " Zhouyi ", they are all focused on divination, and are not interested in 期彩文 . I slowly realize that whether it is divination or self-cultivation, you must first understand the meaning of the hexagram. If you understand the meaning of the hexagram, you must first understand the hexagram words. The Pu Chuan is written to explain the hexagram words. Reading the sacred scriptures carefully is particularly important for understanding the hexagrams. Try to give a few examples:
"Tai" hexagram: "Small goes back and forth, good luck, prosperity." Tao said: "Tai, small, big, auspicious, and prosperous, it means that heaven and earth are connected and all things are connected, upper and lower are connected and their ambitions are the same, inner yang and outer yin, inner and outer yin, inner and outer circumssion, inner and outer circumssion, inner and outer circumssion, gentleman and outer circumssion, gentleman and outer circumssion, gentleman and outer circumssion are the best, gentleman and villain are the best, and villain is the best way to eliminate."
"Pu" hexagram: "It is not good to go." Tuan said: "It is not conducive to going, and it is a villain who grows up."
"Dun" hexagram: "Heng, small profit and stale". Tuan said: "It is to escape and be prosperous... It is to escape and be prosperous... It is to be virtuous and be prosperous when it is destroyed."
"Zhen" hexagram: "Zhen comes and is silly, and he laughs and speaks hoarsely, shocks a hundred miles, and does not lose his dagger." Tuan said, "If you come and go, you will be afraid of blessings. If you laugh, you will be mute and will be the last one. If you are shocked by a hundred miles, you will be shocked by a distance and you will be afraid of a near. You can guard the ancestral temple and the country, and you will be sacrificed to the lord."
"Guimei" hexagram: "The conquest is bad, and there is no profit." Tuan said: "The position is not appropriate. If there is no advantage, it is soft and hard."
"Lu" hexagram: "Little hero, the good fortune of the lord is good." Tuan said: "Small heroes are soft and gentle, but follow the hard, and stop and beautiful. Therefore, small heroes are auspicious for their loyalty."
"Zhongfu" hexagram: "Pigglass and fish are auspicious, and it is beneficial to travel to the great rivers, and is beneficial to Zhen ". Tuan said: "Pigloo fish is auspicious, and it is trustworthy. It is beneficial to travel to the great rivers, and it is empty when riding on the wooden boats. It is the ultimate truth to benefit the chaste, which is in response to the heaven."
" Jiji " hexagram text: "Happy, small profits, first auspiciousness, end chaos." Zhu said: "After being prosperous, the small one is prosperous. Benefit and chaste, hard and soft, and the position should be upright. The first auspicious thing is that softness is obtained in the middle. If it ends, it will be chaotic, and the way will be exhausted."
The hexagram comes from the image, and the 未 interprets the hexagram. Can we understand this way: Tu also comes from the image.
