Preface to Gua Biography (numbers indicate the order of hexagrams)	explain
There is `天(乾¹ )地(坤² )` , and then all things are born.	Gan : the way of heaven; Kun : the way of earth. Kun is also yin, earth, and mother, so it was first received as Kun. Kun Rou is also nourished. Kun: Auxiliary dry, nourish new things. Yang dominates yin. Qiankun (the classical Chinese biography will be elaborated), the parent of all hexagrams, and the portal of 64 hexagrams.
Between the heaven and the earth, there are only myriad things, so it is used as a `^屯3` . All things are born and must be covered, so when they are received, they are `^蒙4` ;	Tuen : hoarding, gathering. Ying: full. Heaven and earth are mellow, and all things are transformed into alcohol. Men and women constitute essence, and all things are transformed. The balance of yin and yang produces new life. Adhering to the foundation of heaven and earth and parents, full of yang energy, it begins to grow. Zhen, Yuan. Mongolia : Dodder grass, also known as female radish, princess, climbing wall grass, so that it can grow on other things. Juvenile: Magical small seedlings. To be nourished is righteousness, holy merit. While protecting the child, allow the child to take appropriate risks and trial and error. Let children follow their own nature and conscience in the process of growing up, understand right and wrong, be kind to others, and accumulate virtue to go far. The meaning of Meng Gua is understanding, education and enlightenment.
Young things must be nurtured, so they `需⁵` ; those who need them are the way to eat. Food and beverages must be litigated, so they are subject to `^讼6` .	Required : The way of diet. Necessary for survival, handling conflicts and disputes. The way of eating and drinking is also the way of survival, and it needs to be taken in a proper way. After the harvest, it also needs to be distributed reasonably, which is the real “diet way”. Because resources are limited, if you occupy more, others will have less, or even some people will not get it at all. Need, don’t enter, can’t be too possessive, insatiable greed. When money is scattered, people gather, and when money is gathered, people are scattered. Litigation : Fighting, public speaking, not kissing. Need Gua to talk about the way of diet, that is, profit. When there is a problem of unfair distribution of interests, it brings disputes, which is called litigation. How to reconcile conflicts? How to ensure fairness and justice? How to deal with the lawsuit, this is the meaning of the lawsuit.
There must be many lawsuits, so I accept them as `^师7` ; there are many teachers. The crowd must be compared, so they are `比⁸` ; those who are compared are also compared.
There must be animals in comparison, so they are treated as `小畜⁹` . Animals and animals are then courteous, so they are accepted as `履¹⁰` .
Fulfill it, and then settle down, so I accept it as `泰¹¹` ; Thai people pass. Things cannot be connected in the end, so accept it as `否¹²` .
Things cannot be finalized, so they are accepted by the `同人¹³` . Those who are the same as people, things must return, so it is `^大有14` to receive them .
There are big ones that cannot be profitable, so accept them with `^谦15` . There are those who are large and capable of modesty, and will be hesitant, so they are given the name of `^豫16` .
Yu must have a follower, so accept it and `随¹⁷` . Those who follow people with joy will inevitably have troubles, so they are subject to `蛊¹⁸` ;
When something happens, it can be big, so accept it as a `临¹⁹` ; Things are big and then conspicuous, so accept them as `观²⁰` .
Considerable and then have some combination, so accept it to `噬嗑²¹` ; Things can’t be coexist, so they are given the `贲²²` ; the ben is also decorated.
If it is decorated and then prosperous, it will be exhausted, so it is used to `剥²³` ; stripped is also stripped. Things cannot be exhausted, and when they are ripped off, they go up and `^复24` .
Again, it is not false, so I accept it as `无妄²⁵` . There is no arrogance and then it can be an animal, so it is accepted as a `大畜²⁶` .
Animals and animals can then be raised, so they are treated as `^颐27` ; Yi is also raised. If you don’t support it, you can’t move it, so it’s `大过²⁸` to receive it .
Things cannot end, so they are accepted as `^坎29` ; hurdles are also trapped. If you are trapped, you must be beautiful, so you should `离³⁰` for it ; those who leave are beautiful.
There are heaven and earth, then there are all things; there are all things, then there are men and women; there are men and women, then there are husbands and wives; The way of men and women cannot be without feeling, so accept it as `^咸31` ; the salty person feels it, and the mutual feeling is the husband and wife. The way of husband and wife cannot be short – lived , so accept it as `^恒32` ; permanence lasts for a long time.
Things cannot stay in their places for a long time, so they accept them as `^遁33` ; those who escape are also retreat. Things can’t escape forever, so they accept them as `大壮³⁴` .
Things can’t be strong in the end, so they are accepted as `^晋35` ; Jin people enter. If you enter, you will be injured, so you will be treated as a clear barbarian; the `^明夷36` are also injured.
Those who are injured outside will be turned against their family, so they will be treated as `家人³⁷` . A poor family must be obedient, so it is accepted that it is `^睽38` ;
Being obedient is bound to be difficult, so it is difficult to accept it ; `^蹇39` is also difficult. Things cannot end in difficulty, so accept them as `解⁴⁰` ; the solution is to ease.
Slowness will inevitably lead to losses, so suffer `^损41` ; losses are unceasing, and there will be benefits, so take advantage of `^益42`
The benefit is endless, and it must be decided, so it is accepted by `^夬43` ; There must be an encounter, so I accept it as `姤⁴⁴` ;
Things meet and then gather, so they are extracted by them `^萃45` those who are extracted gather together. Those who gather and ascend are called ascending, so they receive it as `升⁴⁶` .
Ascending endlessly, it will be trapped, so it is trapped by `^困47` . Those who are trapped in the upper will inevitably turn down, so the `^井48` is used to accept them .
The well road must not be removed, so it has to be `^革49` . The leather man was Mo Ruoding, so he used the `鼎⁵⁰` .
The master is not the eldest son, so he was shaken by it ; the `^震51` moved. Things can’t be moved in the end, they stop, so I accept it as `艮⁵²` ; Gen is stop.
Things cannot be terminated, so accept them as `渐⁵³` ; gradual is progress. If you advance, you must return, so it is accepted that you will return to `归妹⁵⁴` .
Those who get what they return must be great, so they receive them with ^abundance ; those who are rich are great. The poor and the great will lose their home, so they take it and `旅⁵⁶` .
Travel and have nothing to accommodate, so accept it as `巽⁵⁷` ; Xun people enter. Enter and then say it, so accept it to `兑⁵⁸` ; exchange people say it.
It is said and then scattered, so it is accepted as `涣⁵⁹` ; Huan people leave. Things can’t be separated from the end, so I accept them as `^节60` .
I believe in it, so I accept it as `^中孚61` . Those who believe in it must do it, so accept it as `小过⁶²` .
Those who have had things must be relieved, so they are relieved by `^既济63` them . Things are inexhaustible, so accepting them will end in `^未济64` business.

◎ Next time I have time, I will write about the two hexagrams of Qiankun and the “Classical Biography” in detail, so I will make a hole first.
