It\u2019s a subject many of us find uncomfortable. Adele Aldridge is one of those persons, and so she has asked the I Ching about the subject. She found the answer comforting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">***<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Here\u2019s a question I asked of <i style=\"\">I Ching<\/i> when a friend died and I was musing on the meaning of death in general. I am never comfortable with the fact of death, wanting to live forever and complaining all the time about the aging process and nothing I can do about it. So my question to <i style=\"\">I Ching<\/i> was: <i style=\"\">Help me to accept death.<o:p><\/o:p><\/i><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"\"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]--><o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"\">The response from <i style=\"\">I Ching<\/i> was: Hexagram, 42 <i style=\"\">Increase<\/i>, with the 2nd line moving to Hexagram 61 <i style=\"\">Inner Truth<\/i>. I was impressed with Wilhelm-Baynes view of the 2nd line that changed:<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoHeader\" style=\"\"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]--><o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"\"><i style=\"\">\u201cSomeone does indeed increase her; Ten pairs of tortoises cannot oppose it.

But everything depends on not letting unexpected good fortune make her heedless; she must make it her own through innerstrength and steadfastness. She acquires meaning before God and man, and can accomplish something for the good of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"\"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]--><o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"\">Talking about death as an increase as something good and also echoing the fact that <i style=\"\">\u201cIt cannot be prevented by any constellation of accidents\u201d<\/i> once again impressed me with the magic of <i style=\"\">I Ching<\/i>. I appreciated that positive view.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"\"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]--><o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"\">And then what could be more appropriate than \u201c<i style=\"\">Inner Truth<\/i>.\u201d The Stephen Karcher interpretation for this Hexagram in the section he names, <b style=\"\"><i style=\"\">The Shaman Speaks<\/i><\/b>, he says, \u201d. . . <i style=\"\">This is Wood over Metal: an open centre that allows inspiration to pervade and influence the world.
