比肩

比肩 bigyeon is the seat that is the same breath as the day stem and the same polarity.

It stands shoulder to shoulder with the self, so it means sibling, colleague and rival.

It gives the self its footing, and in excess it divides what wealth there is.

Its own mind is clear, and it stands alone.

It leans on no one and opens its own road.

With those of like purpose, strength comes.

Held too stiffly it collides; it must learn to divide the share.

One more of the same force is attached.

Less a hand that helps than a hand that will take a share of the seat.

Do not insist on walking together a road meant to be walked alone.

An equal companion is itself a strength.

Go together, but divide the share beforehand and it lasts.

There is one shoulder to lean on.

Work stands better bound to someone in the same case than borne alone.

Ten years of standing by one's own force and setting a purpose.

Standing alone and the strength of companions come together.

Good for pressing forward by one's own force.

Where the mind is kept and the choosing is one's own, the result follows.

With those of like purpose it is sure.

Listen once more rather than hold stubbornly, and it goes easily.
