Reading Zhouyi: Know the opportunity of change, know the power of the same person, and be the same person.

The hexagrams on the skin are exchanged for gold, and the next hexagrams are separated from the fire. Changing one's mind is an image of breaking the old and establishing the new, symbolizing change. After the gold vessels are replaced by gold, they can be forged into new vessels by fire, and the old vessels are changed into new ones, so they are called skins. With the development of the country, many old legal systems can't keep up, and the pace of progress needs to be changed according to the situation. If it is poor, it will take a long time. This is the general idea of change.

Changing one's mind symbolizes change, and changing the old things in the past, abandoning the old and establishing the new, can make the people believe in it, be followed by the people and have a smooth future. Only by adhering to the road of changing with constancy and keeping up with the needs of the situation can we succeed, because change seizes the opportunity and regrets will naturally disappear, otherwise it will be too late to regret.

The fourth day is the fourth day in the twelve branches of the earth, which means the concept of time and that change needs to wait for the opportunity. Change is a new beginning, so there are four virtues of Yuan Henry's chastity.

Now is not the time for change. We can't make a rash move in order to consolidate the foundation, so we should tie it up with cowhide. Here, it is a metaphor of the importance of staying still until time comes. Because many times, people act rashly when they see a little benefit, miss the opportunity and regret it, so they use the skin of the ox to bind it.

It's time to make a change. When the time is ripe, it will give full play to its effectiveness, and the future of change will be unimpeded to avoid mistakes. Being bound by the scalper's skin until the next day is an opportunity to wait for change. The benefits of change benefit the people, and the whole country echoes, and the change naturally succeeds. Change brings benefits to the people of this country. Although many old laws and regulations have been changed, they will not make mistakes. The Shang Dynasty was established because it changed many legal systems in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, which was contrary to public opinion.

Although change will bring benefits, it is difficult for most people to accept changing their views because of their eagerness for success and poor planning. Using such a reform plan to implement, not only can not change, but will lead to disaster. If it cannot be corrected in time, it will do more harm than good and cause social unrest. For the method of change, we must study it many times, consider it carefully, listen to the opinions of the people, and win the trust of others in order to proceed smoothly. For change, it should be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and supported by the people. If the people have no interests, the reform will be blocked and all previous efforts will be wasted.

Incorrect reform methods must be corrected in time before changes can be made, and changes themselves are changes. To meet the needs of the people and correct the strategy of change in time can avoid setbacks and failures and eliminate regrets. The reform plan must be beneficial to the people first, so as to promote change and make the people accept it.

A great man is like a tiger, because of the good weather, geographical location and people. At this time, there is no need to ask God for divination, because their honesty and virtue have been deeply rooted in people's hearts, and change is bound to succeed. Great men need to make changes for the country and the people without hesitation, because their virtue and honesty have influenced the people and won their trust.

Even a gentleman, without any foundation, suddenly changes, just like a villain suddenly changes his face. Without preparation and basic reform, it is hard for the people to accept and it is bound to be endless. Only by persisting in the present, through careful planning and the accumulation of good faith, can we make changes that benefit the people.

Change must first choose the right time, and must not blindly follow. To win the recognition and conviction of the whole society, change should benefit the country and the people, never engage in malpractices, and the motives should be pure and just. Rushing for a while will lead to unstable foundation and failure.

The upper divination is for the line, for the sky, and the lower divination is for the fire. Leaving divination symbolizes the sun, and doing divination symbolizes the sky. The sun is a celestial minister, and both of them have the same name, so they are called colleagues. No mortal, no mortal. To achieve something, you need the help of like-minded people. With the concerted efforts of Qi Xin's Qi Xin, no matter how difficult it is, we can conquer and win. A gentleman should understand that birds of a feather flock together, distinguish things clearly, seek common ground while reserving differences, and unite all people in order to govern the world. For an individual, being able to advance and retreat with the sky, adapting to the four seasons and being in the same way with the sky is the highest realm of harmony between man and nature.

The divination of the same people calls for people to be like-minded, and people live in harmony with the world. It is more beneficial to carry forward the avenue among the poor in the wilderness and meet like-minded people. This is the prosperity of the avenue. Helping each other is conducive to solving difficulties and problems. Only a gentleman can do this.

Being at the door with others is a moral and intellectual attraction. It is a good thing that the reputation of a gentleman spreads, and friends come to learn from the scriptures and promote Taoism. Academic and moral exchanges, complement each other, of course, beyond reproach.

In academic behavior, only communicating with people of one's own school and not contacting with new academic ideas is a frog in the well, which is bound to be detrimental to improvement and development. Colleagues should communicate actively, learn more from the outside world, and don't be too conservative, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve great things. Thousands of books is not as good as Wan Li Road. Extensive communication with people from all walks of life is conducive to improvement and development.

Ambush the army in the thick forest and grass, occupy the commanding heights nearby, and be diligent in guarding, so that the enemy dare not make a move for three years. It is the result of the unity and active defense of the army that the enemy can not invade for three years. This kind of military power scares the enemy, and he can defeat the enemy without fighting.

It is auspicious to occupy favorable terrain and surround the city without launching an attack. Although the two armies confronted each other and war was imminent, the two sides reached an armistice agreement through negotiations, which did not cause harm and was naturally beneficial to the country and the people. Armistice is the result of mutual understanding and the expression of both sides' thoughts. Armistice saved soldiers and people from the suffering of war, which has lofty moral quality.

Many people get together, first crying loudly, and then laughing through tears. Why? This is because in the face of a powerful enemy or a life-and-death dilemma, the two divisions met when Qi Xin worked together to win more with less and get rid of the predicament. Difficulties are not terrible, what is terrible is the confidence of the team. As long as we unite sincerely, no matter how powerful the enemy is, no matter how powerful the difficulties are, we can overcome them. This is what the two of them mean.

As long as you have excellent moral character and profound knowledge, you can meet like-minded friends even in the suburbs. Although there are problems in the local area, it does not affect their common aspirations. Shangjiu will change soon. From the wilderness at the beginning to the suburb of Shangjiu, it is slowly approaching the edge of the city. It is time to meet like-minded people and show their talents. For a gentleman, it is a wonderful thing to meet a colleague. Even if you can't have the same career, you can exchange academic ideas by candlelight, and there is nothing to regret.

The strength of individuals is limited, but the strength of unity is infinite. Regardless of origin, region or class, as long as like-minded people get together, no matter how big the difficulties are, Qi Xin can overcome them with concerted efforts. If individuals go their own way, do not know unity, self-reliance, divorced from the masses, naturally nothing will happen, delaying life.
