Ancient chinese believed that no matter how dangerous or dark a situation was, if one was able to follow the way of heaven, one could pass through it as safely as water passes through a ravine.
Darkness is doubled.
dangers succeed one after another.
water flows and fills,
not accumulating but running.
pass through dangerous places;
never lose self-confidence.
rely on heart and mind
the firm are in the central places.
deeds will be honored.
going forward, there is success.
the danger in heaven,
no one can ascend.
the danger on earth,
there are mountains and rivers.
kings and princes took advantage of these dangerous situations to protect their realms.
it is great indeed, at the proper time to take advantage of the dangerous situations.
water flows on twice over, darkness is doubled.
the superior person cultivates and practices virtue constantly and responds through teaching.
