Once such an opportunity arises, classmates, you must seize it\u2014this is a pivotal moment in life. But take note: when opportunity comes and you grasp it, that alone is insufficient. Life then advances to the third stage, represented by the upper trigram of the lower hexagram. Hence, &#8216;The noble person is diligent and vigilant all day long.&#8217; Why is it called the Qian hexagram? Qian signifies unceasing action\u2014like the heavens rotating eternally to the left. It moves perpetually, though I cannot quite fathom why later Chinese thought adopted the concept of &#8216;the sky is round and the earth is square&#8217; (\u5929\u5706\u5730\u65b9). You see, the Taiji diagram employs circles throughout: the Taiji itself is a circle, and the Bagua encircles it. The ancient Chinese conception of the cosmos was remarkably sophisticated. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">So, this is the Nine in the Third Place: &#8216;The noble person is diligent and vigilant all day long.&#8217; As one female classmate said today, &#8216;Study twenty-four hours a day&#8217;\u2014this embodies the spirit of &#8216;diligent and vigilant all day long.&#8217; Yet even at night, one must remain watchful. This reflects the ancient Chinese mindset, likely born of harsh survival conditions. &#8216;Alert at nightfall. Danger. No grave fault.&#8217; Remaining vigilant against all possibilities prevents calamity. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Nevertheless, in life, no matter how vigilant you are\u2014&#8217;To err is human&#8217;\u2014introspection and self-reproach may not fully avert mistakes. &#8216;No grave fault&#8217; (\u65e0\u548e) means avoiding major errors. &#8216;\u548e&#8217; (ji\u00f9) denotes a serious fault, so &#8216;no grave fault&#8217; implies maintaining constant vigilance. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">For you young people, this standard may seem harsh. Youth should still forge ahead with the Qian spirit of relentless diligence. Indeed, a young person who has never faced setbacks is fragile\u2014truly fragile. Yet reflecting on my own journey at your age\u2014being born in the Year of the Ox\u2014I did indeed &#8216;ram around&#8217; everywhere. But I find myself content with that phase. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Moving to Nine in the Fourth Place: the first line of the upper trigram. Note that Nine Three and Nine Four represent the human realm; Nine Five and Top Nine represent heaven; and Initial Nine and Nine Two represent earth. Only within the human realm do we encounter &#8216;diligent and vigilant all day long, alert at nightfall. Danger. No grave fault.&#8217; This tension is uniquely human.&#8221; <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><div class=\"floating-menu float-menu-1 notranslate\"><ul class=\"fm-bar\"><li class=\"fm-item-1-0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.doorm.cn\/recommend.php\" target=\"_self\" ><div class=\"fm-icon\"><i class=\"fab fa-youtube \"><\/i><\/div><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;&#8216;Beneficial to meet the great man&#8217; m [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7097","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-doorm"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.doorm.cn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7097","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.doorm.cn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.doorm.cn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.doorm.cn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.doorm.cn\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7097"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.doorm.cn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7097\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7098,"href":"https:\/\/www.doorm.cn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7097\/revisions\/7098"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.doorm.cn\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7097"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.doorm.cn\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7097"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.doorm.cn\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7097"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
