Heraclitus (ca.500 BCE) Arthur Fairbanks, trans. and ed., The First Philosophers of Greece (Scribner, 1898) Electronic Text by Flask at Grove, University of Florida.. Fragments Not on my authority, but on that of truth, it is wise for you to accept the fact that all things are one. This truth, though it always exists, men do not understand, as well before they hear it as when they hear it for the first time. For although all things happen in accordance with this truth, men seem unskilled indeed when they make trial of words and matters such as I am setting forth, in my effort to discriminate each thing according to its nature, and to tell what its state is. But other men fail to notice what they do when awake, in the same manner that they forget what they do when asleep. Those who hear without the power to understand are like deaf men; the proverb holds true of them 'Present, they are absent.' Eyes and ears are bad witnesses for men, since their souls lack understanding. Most men do not understand such things as they are wont to meet with; nor by learning do they come to know them, though they think they do.

The Wisdom of Heraclitus: Part One Tom Morris Who was the first philosopher to say "Everything is always changing"? Did you know it was the same man who famously announced that "Character is destiny"? We are going to identify this sagacious character, and look at some of what he has to teach us. A new book just been published by Viking, and has been displayed prominently in many of the bookstores of America. It is an updated translation of the few extant sayings and writings of this ancient philosopher, Heraclitus, who is the sage I've quoted. The book is entitled Fragments: The Collected Wisdom of Heraclitus , and the translator is the poet Brooks Haxton. In his introduction, Haxton says "An exact contemporary of Confucious, Lao Tsu, and the Buddha, Heraclitus of Ephesus gave up his kingdom and chose, instead of the trappings of power, to seek the Word of wisdom." We know little about this enigmatic aphorist of the ancient world. He was indeed from a background of power and privilege, and yet followed his intellect in a philosophical direction. He sought wisdom behind the surface appearances of things, and wrote down his insights in nuggets of thought that are sometimes stimulating, sometimes obscure. He broke from the philosophers before him who sought mainly to understand the cosmos that surrounds us, and plunged his mind into the challenges of understanding the human condition. Beginning this week, I want to display and comment on some of the fragments, as translated by Haxton. As we shall see, the accuracy and adequacy of translations can often be disputed, but we will read the thoughts of Heraclitus from this new version, mostly, at face value, and just comment briefly on their relevance for our wisdom quest of the present day.

66. Heraclitus Of heraclitus we have about 140 fragments, some of dubious authenticity, all of them seemingly obscure and open to endless interpretation. http://www.albany.edu/~rn774/fall96/philos3.html

HERACLITUS AND PARMENIDES both ways . In his own words, "The way up and the way down are one and the same." This is his deepest insight: all becoming is circular (notice that, indeed, in a circle the way up and the way down are one and the same). The same is true of human life: "In us the living and the dead, wakefulness and sleep, youth and old age, are one and the same: for the ones are changed into the others, and reciprocally." Heraclitus apparently believed in the cyclic recurrence of all things, including our lives. The German philosopher Nietzsche tried to revive that doctrine at the end of the 19th century. The circular nature of becoming was to mark deeply another famous German philosopher, Hegel (beginnings of 19th century). Parmenides, on the other hand, has left us long fragments of a poem written in the same meter as the Homeric epics; although there is no lack in it of goddesses and mystical symbols, the main thrust is austerely logical. The poem has two parts: the first is "the way of Truth," the second, "the way of Opinion." Parmenides' main truth is: We cannot think nor say not-being . Thus, he rejects outright the possibility of what I called the horribly difficult thought of not-being. Let me explain how he does it. Suppose I say, "Dragons are not (i.e. they don't exist)." Parmenides would reply: either there are dragons out there, in which case you are uttering a lie, or there are not, in which case your word "dragon" (and your thought) are about nothing. But a thought or a word cannot be about nothing, words and thoughts are like arrows, or like wasp stings: they must hit a target. If you say, "But my word `dragon' hits an idea of dragon I have in my mind," he would reply, "Then you're changing the subject: your word means an idea, not an object out there, and in that case, when you say that dragons are not, you're uttering a lie, for you say that the idea

Of his early life and education we know nothing; from the contempt with which he spoke of all his fellow philosophers and of his fellow citizens as a whole we may gather that he regarded himself as self-taught and a pioneer of wisdom. So intensely aristocratic was his temperament that he declined to exercise the regal-hieratic office which was hereditary in his family, and presented it to his brother. It is probable, however, that he did occasionally intervene in the affairs of the city at the period when the rule of Persia had given place to autonomy; it is said that he compelled the usurper Melancomas to abdicate. From the lonely life he led, and still more from the extreme profundity of his philosophy and his contempt for mankind in general, he was called the "Dark Philosopher", or the "Weeping Philosopher", in contrast to Democritus , the "Laughing Philosopher."

The IEP lists the actual (translated) quote as "On those stepping into rivers staying the same other and other waters flow." (DK22B12) Diogenes espoused the theory of universal flux, "the coincidence of opposites," and the centrality of fire. Diogenes Laertius says that Heraclitus won the honorary title of king of the Ionians and wrote a book that he deposited at the temple of Artemis at Ephesus. (Over 100 fragments survive.) The book was divided into sections on cosmology, politics, and theology.

Everything flows and nothing abides; everything gives way and nothing stays fixed. (b) Homer was wrong in saying, "Would that strife might perish from amongst gods and men." For if that were to occur, then all things would cease to exist. (c) Soul is the vaporization out of which everything else is composed; moreover it is the least corporeal of things and is in ceaseless flux, for the moving world can only be known by what is in motion. (d) Human nature is not rational; there is intelligence only in what encompasses him. (e) [When visitors unexpectedly found Heraclites warming himself by the cooking fire:] Here, too, are gods. 2. We should let ourselves be guided by what is common to all. Yet, although the Logos is common to all, most men live as if each of them had a private intelligence of his own. 3. The sun is the breadth of a man's foot. 5. They pray to images , much as if they were to talk to houses; for they do not know what gods and heroes are. When defiled they purify themselves with blood, as though one who had stepped into filth were to wash himself with filth. If any of his fellowmen should perceive him acting in such a way, they would regard him as mad. 6. The sun is new each day.

Lorenz Most men live as though their thinking were private possession(1) To domesticate magic, that is science; To accept the limitations of scientific rule, That is magic, or leads to magic.(2) In John Fowles's The Magus, as in his poem "Barbarians," the real threat to humanity can be found not only inside the walls of Western culture, but also ensconced within the very walls of our own individual consciousnesses. This is revealed as Nicholas Urfe takes part in the godgame of self-discovery which obviates the barbarism within his own self-construct, within each of his assumptions and presumptions. It is a barbarism which blinds him to the subconscious existence within himself of life-sustaining values as well as to an awareness of his interconnectedness with others. It is a barbarism - and this is the central premiss of Fowles's godgame - which can only be removed from Western culture through the process of individuals, like Nicholas, discovering within themselves the freedom to act in ways which are not dictated by the outmoded social structures of the culture they were born into.

Heraclitus calls this force 'the god', 'the wise', 'the one', Zeus, and the thunderbolt, and he explicitly connects these four words with each other in the fragments. Fragment 41 identifies this controlling force as 'the wise' and 'the one', showing that these two names stand for the same concept in Heraclitus' thought: The wise is one (hen to sophon), knowing the plan by which it steers all things through all. (D.K.41) The equivalence of 'the wise' and 'the one' is reiterated in another passage, which also connects this wise one to 'the god' by associating it with the name of the traditional king of the gods: The wise is one alone (hen to sophon mounon), unwilling and willing to be spoken of by the name of Zeus. (D.K.32)

home index ancient Greece Heraclitus Bust of Heraclitus (Villa dei papiri, Herculaneum) Heraclitus of Ephesus (c.500 BCE): one of the pre-Socratic philosophers of ancient Greece. Heraclitus was a rich man from Ephesus and lived c.500, during the Persian occupation of his home town. Part of Heraclitus' activities may have been directed against the Persian Magians , whom he calls "wanderers of the night". His philosophical work consists of a series of cryptical pronouncements that force a reader to think: "war is the father of all things", "all things are in a state of flux and nothing is permanent", "the road up and down is one and the same". Unfortunately, a great part of his work is lost, which makes it very difficult to reconstruct Heraclitus' ideas. It seems certain, however, that he thought that the basic principle of the universe was the logos , i.e. the fact that it was rationally organized and therefore understandable. Bipolar oppositions are one form of organization, but the sage understands that these oppositions are just aspects of one reality. Fire is the physical aspect of the perfect logos.

Darwinian Web Adam Green's thoughts on the evolution of the Internet Posts tagged as: heraclitus The ultimate fire hose Posted on Sunday, February 5, 2006 at 9:30 PM (permalink) I've been having a lot of fun today watching random feeds pass through my Tech Memeorandum reading list . Wait a minute, that is kind of sad isn't it? Anyway, this type of automated aggregation from a meme hunter is the ultimate fire hose. There is something almost illicit about having all these feeds pass by. It is qualitatively different from choosing to subscribe to feeds. I never know what I'll find. Shelley Power's comment feed just passed by for some reason. I already have over 150 feeds that I'm subscribed to, and I'd pretty much stopped adding to them, because I feel guilty when I have to flush a whole bunch of unread posts away. Using an automated reading list and an aggregator like BlogBridge allows me to read feeds I've never seen before with no guilt. I don't care if they disappear on the next hourly refresh, because new ones will take their place. The Greek philosopher Heraclitus is famous for saying that you can never step into the same river twice. I think Heraclitus would have liked this new model of a river of feeds. See, I knew my History of Science education would be useful someday.
