Each line is a Rudiment object.

Definitely bottom up!  ;^)

Likewise.  I learned enough ancient Chinese to do my own, very rough 
translation.

I think someone said that the I Ching was a lake shallow enough for 
children to play in but deep enough to swallow giants.  It certainly 
swallowed me.  :)

I find usage leads me through angst->thoughtfulness->action.  A great 
change indeed!

BTW, the fundamental rethinking of Nigel Richmond is quite interesting.  
You can get PDFs of his books at:

If you pull the latest, you can get a Cuis casting via
   World Menu -> New morph.. -> .. -> HexagramDisplayPanel.
