Going to sleep right now, but wanna ask something...

初九曰:「潛龍勿用。」 何謂也?
子曰:「龍德而隱者也。不易乎世,不成乎名﹔遯世而無悶,不見是而無悶﹔樂則行之,憂則違之﹔確乎其不可拔,乾龍也。」

What does the last bit "確乎其不可拔,乾龍也" mean? I suck at ancient Chinese...

Or maybe I should ask Freddy, he ought to know bwahahahaha

初九:潛龍,勿用。
(象龍潛伏﹐不可有所作為。)

初九曰:「潛龍勿用。」 何謂也?

子曰: 「龍德而隱者也。不易乎世,不成乎名﹔
遯世而無悶,不見是而無悶﹔樂則行之,憂則違
之﹔確乎其不可拔,乾龍也。」

乾龍勿用,陽氣潛藏。 乾龍勿用,下也。
***********************************************
君子以成德為行,日可見之行也。潛之為言也,隱而未見,行
而未成,是以君子弗用也。

變爻即成姤卦,表示時機未到,急不得也!暫時採取消極態度
,安於困難之中,做好準備,儲存能量,等待機會到來。

Yeah I know most of that... I just don't relaly get the last line.... 確乎其不可拔,乾龍也... what "其不可拔" means, and what exactly 乾龍 is, even though I've heard it so many times before.

*goes back to sleep*

应该是“确乎其不可拔,潜龙也。”

意思是:意志坚定而不可拔,这就是所谓的潜龙

according to my friend.....
