The Receptive 6 象曰:'(The lines are all weak and divided, as appears from) the use of the number SIX:--but (those who are thus represented) becoming perpetually correct and firm, there will thereby be a great consummation.
彖曰:The Receptive brings about sublime success, Furthering through the perseverance of a mare. If the superior man undertakes something and tries to lead, He goes astray; But if he follows, he finds guidance. It is favorable to find friends in the west and south, To forego friends in the east and north. Quiet perseverance brings good fortune.

《高島斷易》0210-坤 用六

用六,利永貞。

《象傳》曰:用六永貞,以大終也。

用六之義,己示之卷首。

「永」者,長也、遠也。[坤卦]之象純陰,為臣妻之義,

在人事則柔順貞正,而悠久有恆,不變其志,可以從君從夫矣。

忠臣不事二君,貞女不更兩夫,即「永貞」之義也。

為人臣為人妻者,從「永貞」之義,則大吉而有終,

若少變之,則大凶大惡之道也,故深誡之曰:「利永貞」。

蓋陰之性,柔躁而難守其常,有易進易退之弊。

《象傳》曰:「以大終也」,謂其不變[坤]道之順,而全其終也。

若變動則陰侵陽,臣侵君,妻淩夫,道理背常,焉得全其終哉!

又陽為大,陰為小;陰者,柔也、暗也、小也,

然勤而不怠,必強學而不懈,終明,是有以大終之義也。

按:

[乾]之用九,以過剛強,宜守無首之道;

[坤]之用六,以陰道、臣道、妾道,宜守恆常之德,不可變動。

是警戒之辭也。
