The Mother of Sixty-four Hexagrams, Kun: What are I Ching's 64 Hexagrams? (part 3）

You are such a clear and deep teacher, summarizing huge concepts easily and directly for us. Thank you. 🙂

Many thanks for your videos! I am studying Chinese medicine at the moment, and your videos are a great add to my lessons. I keep repeating them and i understand them better and better. Keep up the good work Yang!

The contents are really heavey to digest especially for the beginners. You cann't help it because it's the nature of the genre. You did explain remarkably well . Hearty thanks to you for adding enough clarities to those two foundation hexagrams . Learning and understanding rest 62 will be comparatively easier. 👍👍

OK - so now I have watched your videos on the two most important Hexagrams in the I Ching - the first two Hexagrams, Chien and Kun. By the way, I visited a Chinese herb store once, and I was surprised to see that the I Ching even exerted its influence in the naming of Chinese herbs. You said that Kun is the Mother of all the Hexagrams, right? I was surprised to find that Yi Mu Tsao, or "Benefit the Mother Herb" - called Motherwort in English - is also called Kun Tsao, with the character Kun being the same one used for Hexagram #2 - the Mother of all Hexagrams! By the way, Yang - I think you should not stop with the first two Hexagrams, but do videos like these on other important Hexagrams of the I Ching, probably beginning with the other doubled Hexagrams, and then moving on from there. Good work!

Thank you so much - all these videos are fascinating! One thing that stumped me even before you brought up that last diagram... Horse position, six fifth. The dragon's ideal positions are hidden (getting ready, yang-yang), then danger until alertness (where can settle again into the lower third), then leaps (danger, yang in yin), then in a happy place, nine fifths (yang-yang). Makes sense. Horse starts out in a place where hard work has to be demonstrated (yin-yang), then kinda comfy in six-second (yin-yin), then danger of overstepping in six-third (yin-yang).. then in six-fourth the horse is already an ideal subordinate, very needed, and the biggest risk is breaking that balance by blabbing or taking action.. but otherwise good. (yin-yin). It feels like (given that the last position is always 'overstepping' and 'stretching too far') six-fourth would be the ideal for a horse? Because when we move into six-fifth we are moving into a yin line in a yang position? Why is a horse's ideal position of balance there? This is all super cool but that's just not clicking for me, I apologize..

I'll think about it. ☺

I appreciate linear language.

Thanks 🙏 😊

Thanks 🙏🏻 you should show the ideal and unideal hexagram and explain them as examples pluss a few random ones. Thanks this is not soo simple for non chinese.

No compassion = no' compassion

i feel like i was. 2 nd line and now im a 4 line waiting for 5

I have a question. So a Yang line in Yin position is bad, we want to move out of it if at all possible, but a Yin line in Yang is good? So Yang postion is always good/safe place to be. However in 6 fifth you are encouraged to keep making progress but the only remaining line to move to is 6 sixth which would be catastrophic. How do you progress while staying at the same line?

Thank you, I really appreciate your videos =)

I'm a happy follower, less stress 🥰

TY.

Ok i have a few questions: how do you know if you are a dragón or a Horse, and how you know in what position you are?

Im gonna rewatch this vídeos, very interesting but very complex, thanx a lot

Thank you so much Yang!

Million thanks. Great explanation, please do a detail explanation of 3 different kua.
