Steven Karcher & Michael Servetus
Braking his wheels. Trailing her cord in the water. Wise Words! Trial: The Way opens.
Everything is loaded but do not start yet. Let yourself be lured into action. The sincerity of your feeling and your dedication are what count. You have to pretend to be part of this situation even as it is falling all around you. Restrain your eager desires for fame and recognition. These goings and comings will release the energy now bound up in the past. Gather yourself for a decisive new move.
Richard Wilhelm
He brakes his wheels.
Perseverance brings good fortune.

Here again the time to act has not yet come. But the patience needed is not that of idle waiting without thought of the morrow. Kept up indefinitely, this would not lead to any success. Instead, an individual must develop in himself the strength that will enable him to go forward. He must have a vehicle, as it were, to effect the crossing. But he must for the time being use the brakes. Patience in the highest sense means putting brakes on strength. Therefore he must not fall asleep and lose sight of the goal. If he remains strong and steadfast in his resolve, all goes well in the end.
