| Ming I (Darkening of the Light) |
| Nine in the third place: Darkening of the light during the hunt in the south. Their great leader is captured. One must not expect perseverance too soon. |
| It seems as if chance were at work. While the strong, loyal man is striving eagerly and in good faith to create order, he meets the ringleader of the disorder, as if by accident, and seizes him. Thus victory is achieved. But in abolishing abuses one must not be too hasty. This would turn out badly because the abuses have been in existence so long. |
| King Wen's son, the future King Wu of Chou, eventually overthrew the tyrant (circa 1150 BC). When the aim is centered on the hunt, and success comes, the capture of the great leader of the darkening, that success is all the greater for not having been premeditated. King Wu had no intention of acquiring personal power and seizing empire for himself; it fell to him because of his character. |
