.2: "Persistence in a righteous course brings reward, but to advance (or go anywhere) now would bring misfortune. This is not a time for decreasing but for augmenting.
.6: "Gain which causes no loss to others involves no error. Persistence in a righteous course brings good fortune. It is favorable to have in view some goal (or destination). He obtains followers but not a family (or home).
.2 says going anywhere is a problem; .6 having a destination is a good thing. So which is it? 24 could imply: stay at home, but it could also be "return" to "that home," the home of the friend, or the home that friendship itself is. On the other hand .6 seems to speak against family/home.
Thoughts? Thanks!
