Classical Interpretation
The taming power of the great (26) refers to time.
The image
Heaven within the mountain: the image of the taming power of the great. Thus the superior man studies numerous ancient sayings and deeds of the past, in order to strengthen his character.
The judgement
The taming power of the great. Perseverance furthers. Not eating at home brings good fortune. It furthers to cross the great water.Full text of Richard Wilhelm's 1924 translation by Cary F. Baynes
