People's Republic of China.
Heraclitus is a non-dualist. All those who have known are bound to know that duality exists because of
the mind, because the mind cannot see the one, it can only see the two. The moment it perceives
anything, it divides. With the mind, the other is necessary. If it sees creation immediately it thinks of the
creator because "How is creation possible without a creator?" But if with this mind you encounter the
creator, then again the mind will see that there must be some other creator – "Otherwise how can this
creator be..?"

太阳每一天都是新的

对所有人都是同一个的这个宇宙,
并不是由任何人或神创造的,
但它一直是,过去是,现在是,将来也是--
一团永恒的火,
它按照有规律的节拍燃烧着自己,
也按照有规律的节拍熄灭着。


火的状态是渴望和满足。


太阳每一天都是新的。
This universe,
which is the same for all,
has not been made by any god or man,
but it has always been, is, and will be –
an ever-living fire,
kindling itself by regular measures
and going out by regular measures.


The phases of fire are craving and satiety.


The sun is new each day.
