Timeless Wisdom from the Iching:

Hexagram 18 to 11, Meaning of the changing of the 6th line:
 "Not Serving Princes or Kings"- A change in this line at the top of the hexagram of "Ruin" is a reminder that one can set oneself apart from the issues of the current day. If one does cast aside current issues however, one must work equally hard at serving higher goals. To ignore current issues in a selfish manner brings misfortune.
