43. Overflowing · 夬 九四
Line 4 of hexagram 43
In practice
You want to push ahead at all costs at a time when it isn't wise, and you refuse to listen to advice. That will lead you into trouble.
The poetry
Buttocks without skin; the walk falters. Leading the ram by a rope: regret vanishes. Hears words and does not believe them.
九四：臀无膚，其行次且。牽羊悔亡，聞言不信。
象曰：其行次且，位不當也。聞言不信，聰不明也。
