Its heading says: “The justified and necessary use of power in overcoming deliberate and persistent interference.”The word ‘power’ in the overall description of the hexagram is not a referral to a distorted mental dynamic but a reference to the power coming out of our heart at service of our individuality. It is the strength to stand up for our needs, hence its reference to ‘hunting.’It is also worth noting that this kind of strength is not here to overcome short-term interference that is unintentional and non-persistent.The hexagram shows us that using power in a way that is justified and necessary requires a long learning process. This learning points towards seeing that force can be used only as a last resort, perceiving the legitimacy of it when the interference is flagrant and persistent. When we approach the Coding Mentally…Here, the mind starts proving and distorting the inherent power of our individuality. It does so through over or under accentuating control resulting in the dominant and subservient characteristic of a mental approach of the Ego Circuit. The social dynamics that result out of such a mental attitude clearly end up creating hierarchical, dog-eat-dog, power structures.When we approach the Coding with Awareness…When we witness the mind’s controlling tendencies, we come to see that within our individuality sits a fire to stand up for ourselves, for our dignity. It is a fierceness to be respected that is intrinsic to our authenticity. Here are some words of Osho describing this power of our individuality: “Have you watched it, that sometimes you come across a person who may not have anything visible, but still, you feel a tremendous energy surrounding him? His impact is almost magnetic, mesmeric. He looks into your eyes and you cannot look into his eyes – a great power. It is not the power of things; he may not have any. He may be just a beggar on the road. It is not the power that comes through politics. He may not be a prime minister or a president because that power is bogus, it belongs to the chair, not to the man.” (Osho, The Beloved Vol.1 Ch5)These are times to stand up for our innate dignity as individuals!Reflector's Reflections with Dirk Nellens is a reader-supported publication.
