Sixth-Nine. The Dragon is now enthroned on high, and experiences regret.
The Dragon enthroned on high experiencing regret, means that fulness cannot last for ever.
Sixth-Nine says, The Dragon being now enthroned on high experiences regret ; what is the meaning of this ? Confucius says ; Honourable, yet occupying no position of power ; exalted, yet having no subjects ; the virtuous man being stationed in an inferior position and receiving no assistance ; this is to experience regret in moving forward.
The Dragon being enthroned on high and experiencing regret, implies the approach of extreme calamity.
The Dragon being enthroned on high experiencing regret, means, that together with the times (i.e. Kalpa) he has reached his extreme limit (of manifestation).
Enthroned on high implies consciousness of advancing but not of receding ; of preservation but not of destruction ; of success, but not of failure. Is it the Sage alone (who understands these things) ? Assuredly it is the Sage alone who understands advancing and receding, preservation and destruction, and who never loses his perfect undeflectedness.
