7.74

Gu sorcery (蠱道; first character gong + wu fanqie; a character book says: "The spirit of insect poison," pronounced gu. The Chunqiu Zuo zhuan says: "Insects in a vessel constitute gu; it is generated by darkness and licentiousness." The Yijing says: "Remedying what was corrupted (gu) by the father." Wang Bi's commentary says: "Gu is like an affair." Also pronounced ye, and also called 'wilderness ways'; all of these are types of sorcery and cursing.).
