Line-4
COMMENTARY
Confucius/Legge: None can bear with him. Wilhelm/Baynes: Yet in itself it has nothing that would cause it to be accepted. Blofeld: Its coming was sudden and there was no place for it. Ritsema/Karcher: Without a place to tolerate indeed. Cleary (2): There is no accommodation. [Why wait until burning out that this is not the way to a good end?] Wu: Because it is not accommodated.
Legge: Line four's dynamic activity in a magnetic place makes him appear in this unseemly manner -- a disaster to himself.
NOTES AND PARAPHRASES
Siu: The man forges upward too abruptly in his restlessness. Others cannot bear his unseemly manner, and he consumes himself like the fire.
"The second stage, that of emotional excitement or elation – when the individual is carried away by an excessive enthusiasm and cherishes the illusion of having arrived at a permanent attainment – calls for a gentle warning that his blessed state is, of necessity, but temporary and he should be given a description of the vicissitudes of the way ahead of him."
