" … So moves 'the unwearied sun from day to day,' making it a good symbol of renewed, untiring effort. … " so says appendix II of the Legge translation of the I Ching. It goes on to tell us that the motion of Heaven is a complete revolution every day, resumed the next … which in itself provides connectivity to the reference of the sun and thus the moon.
In our goku-i it would indicate that the person/human must take on the trait of untiring effort with due diligence and forthrightness, i.e. wholehearted effort which is inherently untiring.
Is this what Bushi Tatsuo intended when he presented the ken-po goku-i silks to his Marine students?
