2.49

Breaking down incoming sharpness, taking hold of the power: / affairs have the majesty of imperative execution; / states have commands that brook no violation. / When the guest still pays court, the host grows proud; / when the ruler abhors admonition, ministers flatter. / With what intention did Yantou question Deshan? / In one raising up and one pinning down, observe the mental action.
