THE KHËEN DIAGRAM.
Comment
Khëen possesses Origin, Luxuriance, Benefit and Completion.
Wăn Wang says; How great is Khëen the Origin of all things! He is the Beginning of the generation of all things, and is the entire Heaven.——When his clouds move the rain falls, and the various species of things put forth their forms. He fully illustrates the terminatious and commencements of all things ; (observes) the six thrones (i.e. strokes) each completed according to its season ; and at the proper time, he rides upon the six Dragons and ascends the heavens This Khëen Taou changing and transmuting, each thing obtains its own perfect nature and term of existence, by which it preserves its_separate entity in the midst of the One Whole. This is the beneficial completion of all things. (Khëen) coming forth before all other things, the whole world enjoys peace.
Chow Kung says; Heaven revolves without cessation, and the Model Man in imitation of him is indefatigable without cessation.
Confucius says ; Yuen is the growth of Goodness ; Hăng is the accummulation of Excellence ; Le is the harmony of Rectitude ; and Ching is the Root of all matters. The Model Man is the embodiment of Benevolence, by which quality he is fully able to cherish the people; by the accumulation of Excellence he attains perfect accordance with Decorum ; in bestowing benefit on all things, he fully harmonizes with Rectitude; and being firmly tenacious of correct principles, he becomes the very root from which matters spring. The Model Man is actuated by this fourfold virtus, and hence it is said that Khëen (Heaven or the Sage) possesses Yuen, Hăng, Le, and Ching.
Khëen being the Origin of all things, refers to all things commencing and advancing to luxuriance. Le and Ching refer to the nature and disposition of things. Khëen the Beginning (of all things), has the power of bestowing rich benefits upon the world; we cannot state the means by which these benefits are conferred, and yet, how great are they !——How great is Khëen ! He is Hard, and is unceasing (in his revolutions), he is the undeflected due Medium, and the unmixed and most subtile Ether. The six strokes when excited to action thoroughly manifest his nature. When he rides upon these six Dragons (i.e. strokes) to ascend the Heavens, the clouds move, the rain descends, and the whole world enjoys prosperity.
