赫拉克利特残篇

禅海一粟

赫拉克利特 HERACLITUS
0.
我们踏入，又不踏入，这同一条河流。



1.
我描述过LOGOS后，人们看来还是不理解LOGOS。尽管事情按LOGOS而发展发生，有过某些事情经验的人们，就像那些没有经验的人那样，在我按LOGOS的各个构成部分，加以区分每件事情后，人们还是意识不到LOGOS。但是其余一些人拒绝去认识他们醒后的所作所为，就像他们睡着时，不记得他们的行为那样。



2.
因此有必要遵从常识，尽管LOGOS是常识，然而每个人都有他独自的见解。



3.
不要听我的，听LOGOS的，他明智地赞成所有的事物是一个整体的。



4.
事情的真正构成部分，惯于将其自身隐藏。



5.
人类的意向没有真实判断，而神有。



6.
对于事情的所见所闻和理解，这些是我所宁可尝试的。



7.
罪恶的见证是人的眼睛，耳朵，如果他们有灵魂，他们的灵魂不懂他们的语言。



8.
向上的道路也就是向下的道路。他们是相同的。



9.
病痛使得健康安乐，饥饿满足，疲倦休息。



10.
海是最纯洁也是最受污染的水，对鱼来说海水是可饮用的和有益健康的，对人来说，海水是不可饮用的和有害的。



11.
我们生，我们死；我们睡和醒；我们年轻和年老，其中所存在的是一回事，因为那些，循环改变成这些，这些，循环又改变成那些。



12.
事物被聚集在一起是一个整体，又不是一个整体，事物被聚集又被分离，所有的事物之外组成一个整体，而整体之外又是所有事物。



13.
上帝是白天也是黑夜，冬天也是夏天，战争也是和平，饥渴也是饱足。他经历了变化：如同火和，按味道的不同，而命名香料，相混合。



14.




15.

战争是万物之王。



16.
赫拉克利特指责有些作者说，“战争会破坏神和人之间的关系”，因为除非有高低之存在，音乐的和玄将不存在，互为对立的男人和女人也将不存在。



17.
世界的秩序不是由神和人类制定的，但他就是像他的那样存在着，一把永恒地燃烧着的火把。



18.
火的转变：最初是海，海的一半是陆地，陆地使海散开，并被测量了。



19.
所有的东西的交换都是一回事，对火与火的交换是这样，对所有事都是这样，东西和金的交换是这样，金和其他东西的交换也是这样。



20.
霹雳掌控了其他的所有事。



21.
赫拉克利特说，所有的事物都是有秩序的，没有东西是静止的，比如河水的流淌，他说人不能两次踏入同一条河流。



22.
有人说不是所有的东西都是运动的，但是所有的东西在任何时刻都是运动着的，然而这是难以察觉的。



23.
对那些踏入同一条河流的人来说，不同的水在流淌，分散和聚集，流近，又流远。



24.
智慧就是，事物被正确的判断所认识，事物是怎样和其他事物联系的。



25.
唯一的真智慧，不会满足于被称为神王宙斯。



26.
对灵魂来说，死就是变成水，对水而言，死就是意味着变成大地，水由大地生成，灵魂由水生成。



27.
干燥的灵魂是最好和最具智慧的。



28.
一个醉酒的人的灵魂是湿的。



29.
对你来说，将不可能找到灵魂的外壳。



30.
在暴怒的时候打仗是困难的。



31.
我进行内省。



32.
傲慢比大火更应该扑灭。



33.
人的性格就是他的命运。



34.
人们必须为法律的利益而战斗，就像为保卫城墙而战斗一样。



35.
有见识的人说话必须依赖众识，就像城市必须要依赖于法律，对人类来说，所有的法律都来源于神的法律。



36.
人们以非神圣的方式举行的神秘的仪式。



37.
当他们受伤流血时，他们用血来净化他们；就如一个人踏入泥沼时，又用泥沼洗澡，如果他被人看到这样在做，会被认为发疯了的，再有，当他们向神像祷告时，就像他们在和房子交谈，而没有认识到那是神或半神。

1. Of the logos which is as I describe it men always prove to be uncomprehending, bothbefore they have heard it and when once they have heard it.
