六十四卦 / 第 47 卦
困
A lake with no water. Exhaustion, and words that will not be believed. Say nothing, cut consumption, and keep the one thing that cannot be given up: your intent.

亨。贞大人吉,无咎。
象曰:泽无水,困;君子以致命遂志。
象曰:泽无水,困;君子以致命遂志。
被困住了,但说话没人听。
困是泽无水:泽里没水了,干了。占到困,是「资源枯竭」的卦——不是被打败,是没东西可用了。卦辞说「有言不信」:这时候说话没人信,所以不要解释。困的正法是「致命遂志」:把命豁出去守住志向。困的最难处不在物质,在「心理上的枯竭」。

行 动

4
蒙
A spring under a mountain, still finding its channel. You are the student here — or the teacher who must stop repeating themselves. Asking is the whole method.
6
讼
Heaven up, water down: two forces facing away. Stop mid-way and you profit; fight it to the end and you lose. Find an intermediary.
7
师
Water hidden in the earth: force organised into a body. Set the rules before you march. Put the right person in command, not the most available one.
17
随
Thunder resting inside the lake. Following is the move — but every following is also a letting go of the other option.
28
大过
Water over the treetops: beyond the norm. The ridgepole is bending. Either replace the load-bearing piece, or cushion everything and move with extreme care.
29
坎
Water doubled. One danger after another. The method is not escape but interior steadiness — and moving like water, around and through.
