你知道他们在揭露什么吗？
好莱坞一直是意识斗争的最前沿，光明势力跟阴谋集团都倾注了大量的人力物力在这个领域进行较量，这关系到谁掌控人类集体潜意识。这里介绍的灵性觉醒电影当然都是光明势力方的，你知道他们在揭露什么嘛?
2001：太空漫游
暗喻外星文明在各个星球播种文明
银河漫游指南
打开人们对银河系探险的视野和想象
极度空间
直白露骨的揭露了地表世界被阴谋集团掌控之后，媒体以及各个层面的洗脑程式，导致地表人类集体沉睡，这是抵抗运动在80年代最成功的一次影视揭露行动。
前目的地 又名: 宿命论
揭露阴谋集团的时间操控局下的计划，导致一个存有恶性轮回在自己的时空循环中，最终无法解脱。
美梦成真
用奇幻旅程揭露人死之后的世界，人的灵魂去向，以及爱是永恒的主题。
楚门的世界
揭露人类世界是执政官一手策划的封闭式“梦境”，人们上班下班回家，从未看过地球外真正的世界，从未和正面的外星人，广袤的地外星空世界直接接触，生活在一个被人为隔离的世界中。
记忆传授人
揭露的是在看似乌托邦的理想社会下，失忆疫苗，压抑情感的矩阵，教条的社会分化，以及僵化的教育体制，人们已经成了一个理想控制体系下的听话木偶，而随着帷幕边界被打破，合一的圣光冲刷进入这个被隔离的世界，人们重新唤醒内在力量和感知力，回忆起自己曾经所有的美好记忆，唤醒内在灵魂力量，暗喻事件闪焰。
通天眼
揭露的是一个高维度的存有误入地表，投生在一个普通人类家庭的故事，由于振动频率极高，导致引发一系列混乱，当然这是电影夸张的做法，最终这个高维度的存有拉近了人类和高维世界之间的距离。人们用肉眼目睹了一阵子高维世界的模样，这给人们带来极大的心灵震撼，这是一种角度的软揭露，也象征，未来新地球正在和现在的旧世界融合。
K星异客
揭露的是外星存有被困在地表，被当成神经病人的故事，它所讲述的外星世界和生活，为人们打开了一座大门，帮助人们提升他们的意识水平和视野。
我的神啊
非常直白地揭露了地表世界宗教信仰的乱象，并指引人们去找到他们内心的高我，那个真我的合一临在，从而排除恐惧，教条，限定，隔阂，分歧，去看到人人皆是合一临在的真相，而爱就是真理。
圣境预言书
是一部扬升暗示的电影，讲述一个灵魂伴侣团体相互之间不远万里相遇，最后提升振动频率，去往更高维度世界的故事，它反应了现在地球正在发生的巨变，二元转向合一，所有的人事物都在融合。
分歧者系列
是一部揭露阴谋集团矩阵社会的系列电影，虽然是青春偶像为主打，但也非常直白的揭露了控制矩阵的模式，比如人为划分人们的性格精神类型，全面狙杀觉醒者（分歧者），压抑灵性觉醒和开悟，制造人为的隔离世界，隐瞒先进文明和自由能源科技，采取失忆雾气，绑架孩童，制造人为矛盾分歧等等。
木星上行
是一部较为完整的青春揭露电影，从地表奴役世界，到执政官的分离文明，到银河星空联盟，到蜥蜴人，负面集团的灵魂收割，以及银河战士、抵抗运动，虽然有些片段较为浮夸，但含沙射影，较为完整的揭露了当下地表地外的状况，随着阴谋集团垮台，这颗行星自然会归还给全人类，而不是女主角。
极乐空间
是一部赤裸裸揭露分离文明与地表世界之间差距的电影，阴谋集团在上个世纪开始发动地球全面隔离计划，将许多正面外星文明挡在外面，并在二战期间发展出秘密太空计划和分离文明，许多民众还活在NASA登月登陆火星的幻象中，根本不知道，在影子政府的庞大黑预算下，分离文明的生活早已运作很多很多年，正如电影中一样，金字塔顶端的军工政治财阀们过着逍遥的生活，而地表民众水生火热，这是一部反映当下真实情况的揭露电影，而不仅仅是科幻想象，其中的令人震撼的疗愈机，也是真实世界中存在的机器，而都被阴谋集团全部隐瞒。未来，地球解放之后，将陆续问世。
黑客帝国系列
是一部揭露电影史上的里程碑，它直白赤裸，并用大量的特效视觉，真实地触及到了执政官与奇美拉创造的帷幕矩阵，等离子电浆矩阵世界，那些光怪陆离的战斗，其实是反应的地球非物质层面的光与暗的战斗，男主离开矩阵，去往其他层面世界，参与解放运动，而影片中的地底世界，其实暗喻的是躲起来的早期地底文明以及早期抵抗组织，现在的地底抵抗运动已经变得非常强大，并与光明势力全面合作，致力于移除地球上最后的黑暗。
奇异博士
是一部非常直白的揭露神秘学与秘法学派世界的电影，它揭露了位于西藏，尼泊尔地区的神秘部族，他们是收到光明势力支持的地表秘法学派光战士。而黑暗势力也有一些这样的黑暗魔法成员，两边的对垒是真实的，只不过没有电影中表现的那么夸张，那么震撼。而电影最后的巨大银河怪物，其实暗喻的是等离子电浆章鱼实体姚达博斯。
云图
云图是一部揭露阴谋集团矩阵体制下，人们被强制轮回转世的旷世爱情题材的作品，这很广泛的反应了许多现实中的人们的感情生活，片中的人们不断的分离，相遇，在不同时空，在过去，在未来，人们通过灵魂认出彼此，这也很大程度暗示了星际秩序和灵魂家族。
超验骇客
是一部揭露人工智能所能达到巅峰的电影，它从一个较为正向的角度，阐述了人工智能可能给人类世界带来的冲击，但在光明势力的极力阻止和摧毁下，阴谋集团邪恶的人工智能控制地表世界的计划已经泡汤。
超体
是一部揭露个体存有与我之所是连接过程的电影，电影用了极其夸张的特效，引发人们有些恐惧，不过大部分是正向的表达，比如超越物质，扩展宇宙意识，超越恐惧，看到非物质层面的世界，拓展了超凡的感知力，恢复全意识等等，了解曾经无法了解的宇宙真理和全知智慧。
王牌特工
是一部非常热血的青春揭露电影，其中由著名电影演员科林费尔斯扮演的特工，其所代表的神秘组织，其实就是指的抵抗运动，在影片中，他们独立运作，不属于任何政府机构和财阀，他们拥有地下基地和超高速地心胶囊穿梭运输工具，他们惩奸除恶，正如影片中所见。
盗梦空间
是一部揭露真相与现实的里程碑作品，虽然主题绕开了执政官和奇美拉，以梦境与现实为切入口，但很大程度上，给人们的心理造成了巨大的冲击，许多人看完，都在怀疑这个世界是否是一个梦境，这就是本部作品的目的，反思，反观，反梦境。
未曾确认
是一部由联合揭露团队成员共同搜集真实材料，真实录音，真实访谈，最后制作的真实揭露电影。它主要反映了阴谋集团制造的冷战、隐瞒外星文明真相、隐瞒先进科技、隐瞒正面外星人、隐瞒疫苗、隐瞒暗杀组织、隐瞒政府内部黑暗预算和影子政府、隐瞒转基因真相、隐瞒地下基地战争等等未曾确认，却又罄竹难书的事实。
神奇女侠
是一部以真实光之存有——马特 MAAT（正义女神）为原型创作的电影，神奇女侠的原型，就是来自高维世界的女神级存有，她正在致力于帮助地球行星的转变与解放。影片中真实的揭露了，二战起因的真相，奇美拉集团渴望加大对地球的掌控，对人类的奴役，推行新世界秩序，从而在地表世界挑唆各国开战，并扶持希特勒等黑暗团体，加剧战争惨烈和战争全球化，由此，企图拖住人类进入新世纪。
指环王系列
是一个软揭露的魔幻题材系列电影，它大多反映了非物质层面的战争，精灵王国，其他光之存有，与魔兽种族以及魔兽种族背后的黑暗势力之间抗衡的历史，这是在地球曾经真实发生过的一段历史，当时的地表世界，也有被卷入到非物质层面的战争中来，而魔都的魔王其实暗喻的就是奇美拉黑暗领主。
小王子
是一部灵性电影，它以温暖人心的语句和奇思妙想，开启了人们对未来世界的美好憧憬，并让许多大人陷入反思，反思这个僵化，失去爱与童真的社会。
爱与罪
是一部由真实通灵、访谈材料改编的电影作品，它反映了人类地表世界、乙太世界、星光世界、执政官制造的负面非物质层面世界。这部电影以非常恰到好处的特效和情节，真实还原了大部分人类死去后，可能会经历的事情。关于这些城市，Cobra曾说过：“实际上在更高的星光层，有一些光之区域，如果有足够高的振动频率，人们死后可以去那里。那里有美丽的庭院、建筑、环境。但是，这些地方仍然和隔离地球有联系，人们迟早不得不回去转世，因为执政官仍然控制着他们。”我们在这部电影里清楚地看到这个控制系统。这个城市被墙包围。
好在，现在光明势力已经基本全面接管了非物质层面，许多离开地表肉身的人类，都被光明势力营救，并送往昴宿星人的疗愈星球去疗愈。
星际迷航系列
是一部恢弘的反应光明势力在太空中冒险的系列影视作品，其中包含了遭遇黑暗势力，银河战争，也包含了许多充满奇幻冒险经历的太空旅行情节。这部伟大的系列作品，尽可能真实的还原了许多太空生活，外星冒险的场景和科技，为那个年代的人们打开了对地外世界的巨大想象力。
星球大战系列
是一部以银河战争时期为真实背景创作的系列银河科幻作品，其中许多人物和故事背景，都与光明势力在那个艰难时期的真实故事有关，这不仅是一部震撼全世界，风靡男女老少的科幻大作系列，更是撬开地表控制矩阵的一把文艺钥匙。
心灵传输者
是一部真实反映了人体可以任意穿越时空旅行的电影，这在地表低维度世界想要办到非常困难，会遭遇等离子层面的负面看守者们的追赶，就像电影中的主角们被神秘负面组织追杀一样。
斯诺登
是美国揭露型导演奥利弗斯通的人物传记类电影。斯诺登本人是一位公开站出来揭露美国阴谋政府内部丑闻和黑计划的光战士。
笔者所能涉猎到的电影系列有限，如果你有类似素材，欢迎投稿，日本动漫，动画，电视剧等类型均不限。感谢你的付出让更多人加入到觉醒的行列，愿光与爱与你同在。

作者：澳新见闻
澳大利亚最长寿的老人Dexter Kruger已去世，享年111岁188天。
据报道，曾当过作家、牧场主、兽医的男子Dexter Kruge于1910年出生于Kilcoy，两个月前刚刚庆祝成为澳大利亚最年长男子。
这位超级百岁老人于周二早上在昆州西南部Roma老年护理中心安详离开。
图片
首席执行官Melanie Calvert表示，她会想念Dexter Kruge老先生，“多年来一直和他聊天讲故事。”
“然而，以他的年龄而言，这是可以预料的，他非常平静地去世了”。
Dexter Kruge于今年5月17日成为澳大利亚历史上最长寿的人，当时的他以111岁零124天的年龄超过了第一次世界大战的老兵Jack Lockett。
老先生出生于1910年，见证了泰坦尼克号沉没，经历了西班牙流感，两次世界大战，见证了重大的技术进步与其他许多世界重大事件。
图片
他出生于布里斯班，在Kilcoy的家庭农场长大，后来搬到Linville和Nanango。
最后他搬到更西边的Roma，继续在这片土地上工作，一直工作到90多岁。
图片
并在86岁开始写书，与妻子于1942年结婚。
在好友兼秘书的帮助下，Kruge的生活被记录在书中。
他的书被州长Annastacia Palaszczuk于 2019年购买并放置在昆州立图书馆。
图片
回忆录记录了一个世纪的变化。
老先生一直称，他的长寿秘诀就是积极的人生观、幽默感和健康饮食。
今年早些时候，有记者采访他时，他说道：“我坚持每周吃一顿鸡脑，他还说他每天都吃6只大虾。”
“每天与人聊天就是我最大的乐趣！”
长寿秘诀被破译！
在一般人的了解中，长寿必须是和锻炼、戒烟戒酒有关。
而Kruge老先生的话仿佛是解开了长寿真正的面纱。
美国心理学家经过二十年的研究发现，决定寿命长短最最最重要的因素是这六点：人际关系、性格特征、职业生涯、生活细节、戒除不良习惯、与健康者为伍。
这其中，人际关系排在第一位！
图片
美国心理学教授霍华德·弗里德曼和莱斯利·马丁经过二十年的研究，从研究对象多如牛毛的生活习惯中总结出一些影响寿命的决定性因素，并发表新书《长寿工程》。
然而让人们吃惊的是，书中列出的决定人类寿命6大因素中，“人际关系”竟然排在第一名！
1. 人际关系
研究表明，人际关系的重要性远远超乎想象。人际关系可能比水果蔬菜、经常锻炼和定期体检更加重要。
哈佛大学医学院一项对268名男性进行跟踪调查发现，一个人生活中真正重要的就是和别人的关系。
研究还发现，常与朋友小聚适度饮酒者比滴酒不沾者更长寿。
2. 性格特征
研究发现，在性格方面，百岁老人至少有三大共同点：
其一，生活态度积极。
其二，责任心强。
其三，积极看待衰老。
3. 职业生涯
据研究，人们临死前最后悔的事就是过劳工作，既迫害健康又得到应有的回报。
4. 生活细节
保证足够睡眠和美满和谐的夫妻生活；与人为善，多点宽容，保持年轻的心态。
图片
5. 戒除不良习惯
为了提高生活质量和延年益寿，应该积极改变不良生活习惯。
6. 与健康者为伍
朋友的生活习惯会直接影响你的生活习惯。要想健康，就应该经常和生活方式健康的人交往。
诺贝尔奖得者的长寿金钥匙
乐观、生活有目标
如果你想活到100岁，也许还可以从诺贝尔奖得主身上找答案。
英国一项研究结果显示，诺贝尔奖得主普遍长寿，平均寿命高达77.2岁，比仅获得提名的科学家平均寿命高1.4岁。
据美国《读者文摘》报道，2009年诺贝尔生理学或医学奖得主——伊丽莎白·布莱克本、卡萝尔·格雷德和杰克·绍斯塔克总结出几把延缓人类衰老的“钥匙”，帮你开启长寿大门。
图片
2009年度诺贝尔生理学或医学奖得主：伊丽莎白－布赖克本、卡罗尔－格雷德、杰克－绍斯塔克
1. 长寿的金钥匙：乐观
“人要想健康活到100岁，心理平衡的作用占50%以上，合理膳食占25%，其他占25%。”卫生部首席健康教育专家洪昭光认为，心理平衡的作用超过了一切保健措施和保健品的总和，谁能保持心态平衡，就等于掌握了身体健康的金钥匙。
几位诺贝尔奖得主也强调，保持良好的心理状态，一是要乐观。
研究者希拉里·廷德尔博士指出：“乐观是重要的保护伞，这种人有强大的社会网络并能很好地处理压力。”
“压力激素”会伤身体
现代医学发现：癌症、动脉硬化、高血压、消化性溃疡等，人类65%至90%的疾病与心理的压抑感有关，因此，这类病被称为心身性疾病。
下丘脑、垂体、肾上腺这三点一线形成了人体的应激反应中心。碰到危机时，它们分泌“去甲肾上腺素”“肾上腺素”等压力激素，在激素的作用下，身体中的各种“资源”被重新调配，减少消化、免疫方面的供给，将重心放到心脏的供血和肌肉的运动中去。
如果人整天焦躁不安，令压力激素水平长时间居高不下，人体的免疫系统将受到抑制和摧毁。
如果人是快乐的，大脑就会分泌多巴胺等“益性激素”，让人心绪放松，使人体各机能互相协调、平衡，促进健康。
2. 长寿的第二把钥匙：生活有目标
要保持良好的心理状态，二是要生活有目标。美国拉什大学医学中心一项研究发现，生活有明确目标及计划的老人，死亡率比其他老人降低一半。
无论是远大目标，还是旅游或读书等近期目标，只要生活拥有目标，生存优势就更大。

3. “目标”能激发活力
英国科学家在40至90岁的人群里做了一个7年的追踪调查：结果发现，没有明确生活目标的，比有明确生活目标的，病死或自杀的人数，足足高了1倍；患心脑血管疾病的人数，也多了一倍。
医学上也早有发现，人退休后，因人生目标突然消失，身体健康和精神健康状况均会急剧下降。
如果你没有目标，死亡便成了唯一的“目标”，那么隐藏在你潜意识里的自毁机制就会悄然启动，让你的身体每况愈下。
如果有目标，就会有积极的心态，努力去寻找实现目标的途径，就会勤于用脑。
科学家发现，勤于思考的人的脑血管经常处于舒展状态，从而保养了脑细胞，使大脑不过早衰老。

And so is the successful orator, statesman, preacher, writer or other people who are before the public attention.
成功的演说家，政治家，布道家，作家，或者其他的，那些引起公众注意的。
The peculiar influence exerted by some people over others is due to the manifestation of Mental Gender, along the Vibrational lines above indicated.
有些人超过他人的特别影响，也是由于沿着上面描述的振动线路的精神性别显化。
In this principle lies the secret of personal magnetism, personal influence, fascination, etc., as well as the phenomena generally grouped under the name of Hypnotism.
在这个法则里躺卧着人格磁力，人格影响，魅力，和吸引，等等，的奥秘，一般被称为催眠的现象也是同样。
The student who has familiarized himself with the phenomena generally spoken of as "psychic" will have discovered the important part played in the said phenomena by that force which science has styled "Suggestion," by which term is meant the process or method whereby an idea is transferred to, or "impressed upon" the mind of another, causing the second mind to act in accordance therewith.
熟悉一般称为的心灵现象的学生，将能发现在心灵现象上，这个重要部分的显化，这个力量在科学上称为暗示，这个词意味着一个过程或者方法，由此一个观念被转换，或者印上到他人的心理，导致第二个心理遵照行动。
A correct understanding of Suggestion is necessary in order to intelligently comprehend the varied psychical phenomena which Suggestion underlies. But, still more is a knowledge of Vibration and Mental Gender necessary for the student of Suggestion. For the whole principle of Suggestion depends upon the principle of Mental Gender and Vibration.
对暗示的正确理解，需要按序智能地领会在它之下的不同的心灵想象。但是，对于暗示的学生，还必须加上振动法则和心理性别的知识。因为暗示的完整的规则，依靠着精神性别法则和振动法则。
It is customary for the writers and teachers of Suggestion to explain that it is the "objective or voluntary" mind which make the mental impression, or suggestion, upon the "subjective or involuntary" mind.
对于暗示方面的作家们和教师们，这些是老调，去这样说明，客体的心理或者自主的心理，是在主体的心理或者无意识的心理上造成心理印记或者心理暗示。
But they do not describe the process or give us any analogy in nature whereby we may more readily comprehend the idea.
但是，他们没有在本质上描述这个过程或者给我们类比，只有那样我们才更能领会这个观念。
But if you will think of the matter in the light of the Hermetic Teachings you will be able to see that the energizing of the Feminine Principle by the Vibratory Energy of the Masculine Principle Is in accordance to the universal laws of nature, and that the natural world affords countless analogies whereby the principle may be understood.
但是，如果你在赫尔墨斯的光亮中思考这个问题，你能够看到，雌性法则的活跃，依靠着雄性法则的振动，是与自然的宇宙法则相和谐的，自然界提供了无以计数的，在法则上可以被理解的类似事物。
In fact, the Hermetic Teachings show that the very creation of the Universe follows the same law, and that in all creative manifestations, upon the planes of the spiritual, the mental, and the physical, there is always in operation this principle of Gender-this manifestation of the Masculine and the Feminine Principles.
事实上，赫尔墨斯教导展示真正的宇宙创造遵循同样的法则，在所有创造的显化上，在所有灵魂、精神、物质的层面上，性别法则总是运作的——这个雄性法则和雌性法则的显化。
"As above, so below; as below, so above."
如在上的，亦在下；如在下的，亦如上。
And more than this, when the principle of Mental Gender is once grasped and understood, the varied phenomena of psychology at once becomes capable of intelligent classification and study, instead of being very much in the dark.
另外，一旦把握和理解精神性别法则，立刻能聪明地分类和研究不同的精神现象，驱散原本的黑暗。
The principle "works out" in practice, because it is based upon the immutable universal laws of life.
这个法则通过实践而活着，因为它是奠基在永恒的生命的宇宙法则之上的。
We shall not enter into an extended discussion of, or description of, the varied phenomena of mental influence or psychic activity.
我们不扩展讨论和描述精神影响或者心灵活动的各种现象。
There are many books, many of them quite good, which have been written and published on this subject of late years.
晚近这些年，对这个主题，写出了也出版了不少的书籍，其中的一些相当出色。
The main facts stated in these various books are correct, although the several writers have attempted to explain the phenomena by various pet theories of their own.
在这些不同的书籍中，陈述的主要事实是对的，尽管个别作者试图用自己喜好的理论去解释这个现象。
The student may acquaint himself with these matters, and by using the theory of Mental Gender he will be able to bring order out of the chaos of conflicting theory and teachings, and may, moreover, readily make himself a master of the subject if he be so inclined.
学生通过这些问题，能够去认识自己，并且依靠利用精神性别的理论，他能够给那些互相冲突混乱的理论和讲说带去秩序，并且如果他有这个倾向，他能够由此准备使自己成为这个主题的大师。
The purpose of this work is not to give an extended account of psychic phenomena but rather to give to the student a master-key whereby He may unlock the many doors leading into the parts of the Temple of Knowledge which he may wish to explore.
这本书工作的目的，不是给出心灵现象的一个延伸的说明，而是给予学生一把万能钥匙，由此，他能够开启通向知识殿堂的许多部分的众多的门，那是他期望探索的知识圣殿。
We feel that in this consideration of the teachings of The Kybalion, one may find an explanation which will serve to clear away many perplexing difficulties--a key that will unlock many doors.
我们觉得，在这个对Kybalion教导的思考中，能够发现，一个解说可以适用于澄清许多困惑的难题——一把钥匙能打开众多的门。
What is the use of going into detail regarding all of the many features of psychic phenomena and mental science, provided we place in the hands of the student the means whereby he may acquaint himself fully regarding any phase of the subject which may interest him.
给出有关心灵现象和精神科学众多特征的全部细节又有何益，在有关这个让他有兴趣的主题的任何阶段上，我们把这些放到学生的手上，这样他就能够更完整地认识自己吗？
With the aid of The Kybalion one may go through any occult library anew, the old Light from Egypt illuminating many dark pages, and obscure subjects. That is the purpose of this book.
靠着Kybalion的帮助，一个人能够以全新的样式走入任何奥秘学的图书馆，古老的埃及之光将照亮许多黑暗的书页。这是这本书的目的。
We do not come expounding a new philosophy, but rather furnishing the outlines of a great world-old teaching which will make clear the teachings of others-which will serve as a Great Reconciler of differing: theories, and opposing doctrines.
我们不是来讲说一个新的哲学，而是提供一个伟大世界的纲要——古老的教导，那会使其它的教导变得清晰起来——作为不同点的伟大的调和者：理论们，和对立的学说们。
He also finds that the "I" is able to stand aside and witness the operations of the "Me's" mental creation and generation. There is this dual aspect in the mind of every person.
他也发现主体的我I能够站在一边观看客体的我Me运作精神创造和生产。这是在每个人思想里的两个方面。
The "I" represents the Masculine Principle of Mental Gender-the "Me" represents the Female Principle.
主体的我I代表着心理性别的雄性法则——客体的我Me代表着雌性法则。
The "I" represents the Aspect of Being; the "Me" the Aspect of Becoming.
主体的我代表存在的方面；客体的我代表成为的方面。
You will notice that the Principle of Correspondence operates on this plane just as it does upon the great plane upon which the creation of Universes is performed. The two are similar in kind, although vastly different in degree.
你会注意到一致法则运作在这个层面上，正如其在宇宙创造执行所在层面。这两者在类型上是相似的，尽管程度上有巨大的不同。
"As above, so below; as below, so above."
如在上的，亦在下；如在下的，亦如上。
These aspects of mind-the Masculine and Feminine Principles-the "I" and the "Me"-considered in connection with the well-known mental and psychic phenomena, give the master-key to these dimly known regions of mental operation and manifestation.
这些思想方面——雄性和雌性法则——主体的我和客体的我——被认为和所知的心理和心灵现象联系在一起，是对于这些精神运作和显化的未知领域，进行认识的关键钥匙。
The principle of Mental Gender gives the truth underlying the whole field of the phenomena of mental influence, etc.
精神性别法则，给出了精神影响的现象的整个领域，是基础真理。
The tendency of the Feminine Principle is always in the direction of receiving impressions, while the tendency of the Masculine Principle is always in the direction of giving, out or expressing.
雌性法则的趋向，总是在接受影响的方向上；而雄性法则的趋向，总是在给出或者显性的方向上。
The Feminine Principle has much more varied field of operation than has the Masculine Principle.
较之雄性法则，雌性法则有更多样的运作的场域。
The Feminine Principle conducts the work of generating new thoughts, concepts, ideas, including the work of the imagination.
雌性法则操控产生新心理、新概念和新观念，包括想象的工作。
The Masculine Principle contents itself with the work of the "Will" in its varied phases.
雄性法则在它的不同时期，用意愿的工作满足自己。
And yet, without the active aid of the Will of the Masculine Principle, the Feminine Principle is apt to rest content with generating mental images which are the result of impressions received from outside, instead of producing original mental creations.
而且，没有雄性法则的意愿活动的帮助，雌性法则满足于歇息在产生心理图像上，那是接受来自外在的图像的结果，代替产出原生的心理创造。
Persons who can give continued attention and thought to a subject actively employ both of the Mental Principles-the Feminine in the work of the mental generation, and the Masculine Will in stimulating and energizing the creative portion of the mind.
积极地利用两方面的心理法则，人能够持续给出注意和心理到一个主题上——雌性法则，在精神产出的工作上；雄性法则的意愿，在精神的创造部分的刺激和充能上。
The majority of persons really employ the Masculine Principle but little, and are content to live according to the thoughts and ideas instilled into the "Me" from the "I" of other minds.
大部分人很少真正利用雄性法则，满足于活在，那是由他人心理的主体的我，逐步在自己心理和观念里灌输成为的客体的我上。
But it is not our purpose to dwell upon this phase of the subject, which may be studied from any good text-book upon psychology, with the key that we have given you regarding Mental Gender.
只是停留在这个主题上，不是我们的目标，对这些，可以去研究现在优秀的心理学教科书，只是要带着我们已经给你的关于精神性别的钥匙。
The student of Psychic Phenomena is aware of the wonderful phenomena classified under the head of Telepathy; Thought Transference; Mental Influence; Suggestion; Hypnotism, etc.
心灵现象的学生把对奇异现象的觉察，划分到这样一些标题下：心灵感应，意念传送，精神影响，暗示，催眠，等等。
Many have sought for an explanation of these varied phases of phenomena under the theories of the various "dual mind" teachers. And in a measure they are right, for there is clearly a manifestation of two distinct phases of mental activity.
在不同的二元思想教师的理论之下，许多人已经在寻找对这些不同现象的解释。可以评估一下，在这点上他们是正确的，因为很明显，有精神活动的两个不同相位的显化。
But if such students will consider these "dual minds" in the light of the Hermetic Teachings regarding Vibrations and Mental Gender, they will see that the long sought for key is at hand.
但是，如果这些学生，是在赫尔墨斯关于振动和精神性别的教导的光亮中，考虑这些二元思想，他们会看到长久以来寻求的钥匙已经在手里了。
In the phenomena of Telepathy it is seen how the Vibratory Energy of the Masculine Principle is projected toward the Feminine Principle of another person, and the latter takes the seed-thought and allows it to develop into maturity.
在心灵感应现象上，看起来，雄性法则的振动能量是投射到他人的雌性法则上，后者获得种子思想，并且让它发展成熟。
In the same way Suggestion and Hypnotism operates.
暗示和催眠也是同样运作。
The Masculine Principle of the person giving the suggestions directs a stream of Vibratory Energy or Will-Power toward the Feminine Principle of the other person, and the latter accepting it makes it its own and acts and thinks accordingly.
一个人的雄性法则给出暗示，引导一束振动能量或者意志力量朝向他人的雌性法则，后者接受了它，并且把它当成自己的，落实到他的行动和思想上。
An idea thus lodged in the mind of another person grows and develops, and in time is regarded as the rightful mental offspring of the individual, whereas it is in reality like the cuckoo egg placed in the sparrows nest, where it destroys the rightful offspring and makes itself at home.
这样一个观念寄宿到他人的思想里，成长、发展，到时间，成为这个个体自己实际的精神后代，然而，在实际上就像是杜鹃鸟把蛋下到麻雀的窝里，这蛋摧毁了真正的后代，让自己占了窝。
The normal method is for the Masculine and Feminine Principles in a person's mind to co-ordinate and act harmoniously in conjunction with each other,
对于雄性法则和雌性法则的一般的方法是，在一个人的思想里，在彼此联合中，合作并且和谐行动，
but, unfortunately, the Masculine Principle in the average person is too lazy to act
-the display of Will-Power is too slight
-and the consequence is that such persons are ruled almost entirely by the minds and wills of other persons, whom they allow to do their thinking and willing for them.
但是，不幸的是，一般人的雄性法则太懒惰，以致无法行动
——意志力量的显示太微小
——结果就是，这样的人几乎完全被他人的思想和意识控制着，他们允许他们自己的思想和意志为他人行动。
How few original thoughts or original actions are performed by the average person?
一般人的初心或者原初行动，能执行几许？
Are not the majority of persons mere shadows and echoes of others having stronger wills or minds than themselves?
难道大多数人，不正是具有强大意志或思想的其他人的影子或者回声吗？
The trouble is that the average person dwells almost altogether in his "Me" consciousness and does not realize that he has such a thing as an "I."
麻烦的是，一般人几乎完全居住在他或者她的客体Me的我的意识里，并且无法认识到他或者她自己有个主体的我I。
He is polarized in his Feminine Principle of Mind, and the Masculine Principle, in which is lodged the Will, is allowed to remain inactive and not employed.
他被极化在他的心理的雌性法则里，并且雄性法则在这里是客居的意志，被要求保持在不活跃和不被利用的状态下。
The strong men and women of the world invariably manifest the Masculine Principle of Will, and their strength depends materially upon this fact.
这个世界里强大的男人和女人，总是显示着意志的雄性法则，他们的力量，在本质上是这个方面的利用。
Instead of living upon the impressions made upon their minds by others, they dominate their own minds by their Will, obtaining the kind of mental images desired, and moreover dominate the minds of others likewise, in the same manner.
而不是活在他人对自己思想的压迫下，他们用自己的意志支配他们自己的思想，得到期望的精神图像，而且同样支配他人的思想。
Look at the strong people, how they manage to implant their seed-thoughts in the minds of the masses of the people, thus causing the latter to think thoughts in accordance with the desires and wills of the strong individuals.
看一下强势的人，他们是如何达成播撒他们的种子-思想到大众的思想中去的，这样促成大众按照强势个体的意愿和意志去思考思想。
This is why the masses of people are such sheeplike creatures, never originating an idea of their own, nor using their own powers of mental activity.
这是为什么大众如绵羊一般，从来不去创造一个他们自己的观念，也不利用他们自己精神活动的力量。
The manifestation of Mental Gender may be noticed all around us in everyday life.
在每天的生活中，在我们周围的一切中，都能看到精神性别显化，
The magnetic persons are those who are able to use the Masculine Principle in the way of impressing their ideas upon others.
有吸引力的人，是那些能够利用雄性法则，去印刻他们的观念到其他人之上的。
The actor who makes people weep or cry as he wills, is employing this principle.
演员，当他愿意，可以让观众哭泣，利用的是这个法则。
And so it has ever been with the majority of persons
--tides of feeling have ever risen and fallen with them, but they have never suspected the cause or reason of the mental phenomena.
大部分人永远都是这样
——感受的潮汐在他们里面起起落落，但他们从来没有考虑这个精神现象的来源或者原因。
An understanding of the workings of this Principle will give one the key to the Mastery of these rhythmic swings of feeling, and will enable him to know himself better and to avoid being carried away by these inflows and outflows.
对于这个法则运作的理解，会给予他掌控这些节律摆动感受的钥匙，给予他更好地了解自己，避免被这些流入流出的摆动所带动。
The Will is superior to the conscious manifestation of this Principle, although the Principle itself can never be destroyed.
We may escape its effects, but the Principle operates, nevertheless. The pendulum ever swings, although we may escape being carried along with it.
意志胜过法则的有意识显化，尽管这个法则自身从来不会被消除。
我们可以避开它的影响，但这个法则依然总是在运作着。虽然我们能够不随摆锤舞动，但它永远在摆动着。
There are other features of the operation of this Principle of Rhythm of which we wish to speak at this point. There comes into its operations that which is known as the Law of Compensation.
这个节律法则的运作还有其它特征，在这里，我们也需要说一下。这里有被知晓的补偿法则的运作。补偿一词的定义或者意思里，
One of the definitions or meanings of the word "Compensate" is, "to counterbalance" which is the sense in which the Hermetists use the term.
有一方面是弥补，这就是赫尔墨斯者们使用这个词汇的角度。
It is this Law of Compensation to which the Kybalion refers when it says: "The measure of the swing to the right is the measure of the swing to the left; rhythm compensates."
这个补偿法则，Kybalion提到时说，向右摆动的计量，就是向左摆动的计量；节律的补偿。
The Law of Compensation is that the swing in one direction determines the swing in the opposite direction, or to the opposite pole-the one balances, or counterbalances, the other.
补偿法则是这样的，在一个方向上的摆动，决定了在相反方向上的摆动，或者说是到相对的极性的摆动——一个平衡，或者弥补另一个。
On the Physical Plane we see many examples of this Law.
在物理层面上，我们可以看到这个法则的许多例子。
The pendulum of the clock swings a certain distance to the right, and then an equal distance to the left. The seasons balance each other in the same way.
钟摆向右摆动到某个距离，那么向左也会达到相同的距离。同样，季节们也彼此补偿。
The tides follow the same Law. And the same Law is manifested in all the phenomena of Rhythm. T
潮汐遵循同样的法则。这同一个法则显化在所有节律现象里。
he pendulum, with a short swing in one direction, has but a short swing in the other; while the long swing to the right invariably means the long swing to the left.
钟摆在一个方向上有一个短距离的摆动，在另一个方向上也会有个短距离的摆动；在右边有个长距离的摆动，不可避免地在左边也有个长距离的摆动。
An object hurled upward to a certain height has an equal distance to traverse on its return.
一个物体被向上抛出多高，就会落回多少。
The force with which a projectile is sent upward a mile is reproduced when the projectile returns to the earth on its return journey.
This Law is constant on the Physical Plane, as reference to the standard authorities will show you.
推动物体向前一英里需要的力量，让它返回也需要这么多。这个法则在物理层面是恒定的，正如把持标准的权威们告诉你的一样。
But the Hermetists carry it still further. They teach that a man's mental states are subject to the same Law. The man who enjoys keenly, is subject to keen suffering; while he who feels but little pain is capable of feeling but little joy. The pig suffers but little mentally, and enjoys but little--he is compensated.
但是，赫尔墨斯者们把这带到更远。他们教导说，人的精神状态服从同样的法则。一个人容易感受快乐，也就容易感受痛苦；那些不易感受疼痛的，也就不容易得到喜乐。猪没有什么心理上的痛苦，也就没什么快乐——它得到了补偿。
And on the other hand, there are other animals who enjoy keenly, but whose nervous organism and temperament cause them to suffer exquisite degrees of pain and so it is with Man.
另一方面，有些动物容易快乐，但它们的神经系统和气质使得它们容易感受痛苦，对于人也是一样。
There are temperaments which permit of but low degrees of enjoyment, and equally low degrees of suffering; while there are others which permit the most intense enjoyment, but also the most intense suffering.
有些素质限定了难以快乐，也就相等程度地难以痛苦；另一些人限定了强烈的喜乐，也必然是强烈的痛苦。
The rule is that the capacity for pain and pleasure, in each individual, are balanced. The Law of Compensation is in full operation here.
这个法则是，痛苦和喜乐的能力，在每一个人身上，是平衡的。补偿法则在这里充分运作着。
But the Hermetists go still further in this matter. They teach that before one is able to enjoy a certain degree of pleasure, he must have swung as far, proportionately, toward the other pole of feeling.
但是，赫尔墨斯者们在这个问题上仍然是走得更远。他们教导说，在某个人能够感受一定程度的快乐之前，他一定是已经朝感受的另一个极性做了相等程度的摆动。
They hold, however, that the Negative is precedent to the Positive in this matter, that is to say that in experiencing a certain degree of pleasure it does not follow that he will have to "pay up for it" with a corresponding degree of pain;
无论如何，他们在这个问题上把握住了，负向的是正向的前导，也就是说，经验了某种程度的快乐，他并不一定要有一个痛苦的程度进行补偿来全部偿还；
on the contrary, the pleasure is the Rhythmic swing, according to the Law of Compensation, for a degree of pain previously experienced either in the present life, or in a previous incarnation. This throws a new light on the Problem of Pain.
相反的，快乐是节律的摆动，按照补偿法则，之前有一个痛苦的程度被经历到，或者是在此生的生活上，或是在前世的投生中。这在痛苦的问题上照射了一缕新的亮光。
The Hermetists regard the chain of lives as continuous, and as forming a part of one life of the individual, so that in consequence the rhythmic swing is understood in this way, while it would be without meaning unless the truth of reincarnation is admitted.
赫尔墨斯者们认为生命链是连续的，并且是构成个体的完整生命的一个部分，这样把这推导到节律摆动的理解上，除非转世的事实得到承认，否则就无法有什么意义了。
But the Hermetists claim that the Master or advanced student is able, to a great degree, to escape the swing toward Pain, by the process of Neutralization before mentioned.
但是赫尔墨斯者们声明，大师或者优秀的学生能够达到一个很高的程度，在痛苦出现之前，靠着中立的过程，去避开朝向痛苦的摆动。
By rising on to the higher plane of the Ego, much of the experience that comes to those dwelling on the lower plane is avoided and escaped.
依靠提升到自我较高的层面上，那些是在较低层面的许多经验，可以被消除和避免。
The Law of Compensation plays an important part in the lives of men and women. It will be noticed that one generally "pays the price" of anything he possesses or lacks.
补偿法则在人类生命中扮演了一个重要的角色。要注意到，一个人对任何的拥有和失去，总是要付代价。
If he has one thing, he lacks another--the balance is struck. No one can "keep his penny and have the bit of cake" at the same time Everything has its pleasant and unpleasant sides.
他得到了某个，他失去另一个——维持着平衡。没有人在同一个时间，能够不花钱又吃到蛋糕。每一个事物有它快乐和不快乐的方面。
The things that one gains are always paid for by the things that one loses. The rich possess much that the poor lack, while the poor often possess things that are beyond the reach of the rich.
一个人的获得，总是由另一个的失去来支付。富人拥有很多穷人所没有的，而穷人拥有的却是富人的财富买不到的东西。
The millionaire may have the inclination toward feasting, and the wealth wherewith to secure all the dainties and luxuries of the table, while he lacks the appetite to enjoy the same;
he envies the appetite and digestion of the laborer who lacks the wealth and inclinations of the millionaire, and who gets more pleasure from his plain food than the millionaire could obtain even if his appetite were not jaded, nor his digestion ruined, for the wants, habits and inclinations differ.
百万富翁倾心于盛宴和财富，维持桌面上的华丽和美味，但同时却失去了享受它们的胃口。他妒忌劳动者的胃口和消化能力，而劳动者却缺少财富，向往成为百万富翁，可他们从他们普通的食物中得到了比百万富翁得到的更多的快乐，即使百万富翁的胃口很好，消化能力也没有衰退，但是希望、习惯和爱好却是不同的。
And so it is through life.
The Law of Compensation is ever in operation, striving to balance and counter-balance, and always succeeding in time, even though several lives may be required for the return swing of the Pendulum of Rhythm.
这些贯穿着生命。补偿法则永远运转着，努力朝向平衡和反向的平衡，总是在时间中持续着，要完成节律摆锤的回摆，甚至可能需要几次生命的过程。
The Plane of Energy (C) comprises seven sub-planes of energy so highly organized that it bears many of the characteristics of "life,"
but which is not recognized by the minds of men on the ordinary plane of development, being available for the use on beings of the Spiritual Plane alone--such energy is unthinkable to ordinary man, and may be considered almost as "the divine power."
The beings employing the same are as "gods" compared even to the highest human types known to us.
能量层面（C）下又分为七个层面，这些能量层面组织有序，具有许多生命体的特征。
但是该能量层面并不被处在普通发展层的人所认可（普通人），只有那些发展到精神层面达到一定境界的人才对其加以认可和使用。
在一般人看来，这种能量形式是不可思议的，几乎可以被看成是神的力量。
而可以利用这一层面能量的人，即使与最高级的人类形态相比，也几乎就是神了。
The Great Mental Plane comprises those forms of "living things" known to us in ordinary life, as well as certain other forms not so well known except to the occultist.
The classification of the Seven Minor Mental Planes is more or less satisfactory and arbitrary (unless accompanied by elaborate explanations which are foreign to the purpose of this particular work), but we may as well mention them. They are as follows:
大精神层面包含我们日常所指的有生命的物体形式，还有一些仅为神秘主义者所熟知的其他形式。
思想层面下的七个亚层面的划分也是具有一定任意性的，也许举一些具体的例子会更有说服力，但是那样会偏离我们的主题。
尽管如此，我们还是要提及一下，它的七个亚层面分别是：
1. The Plane of Mineral Mind
2. The Plane of Elemental Mind (A)
3. The Plane of Plant Mind
4. The Plane of Elemental Mind (B)
5. The Plane of Animal Mind
6. The Plane of Elemental Mind (C)
7. The Plane of Human Mind
I.矿物思想层面；
II.基础思想层面（A）；
III.植物思想层面；
IV.基础思想层面（B）；
V.动物思想层面；
VI.基础思想层面（C）；
VII.人类思想层面。
The Plane of Mineral Mind comprises the "states or conditions" of the units or entities, or groups and combinations of the same, which animate the forms known to us as "minerals, chemicals, etc."
矿物思想层面包含上述物质层面的组合实体、合成体。物质层面赋予了我们所知道的矿物质化合物等形式以生命。
These entities must not be confounded with the molecules, atoms and corpuscles themselves, the latter being merely the material bodies or forms of these entities, just as a man's body is but his material form and not "himself."
注意不要将这些实体与分子、原子和细胞等混淆了，分子、原子和细胞只是这些实体的物质部分或者形式，就像人类的身体只是人的肉体而不是人类本身。
These entities may be called "souls" in one sense, and are living beings of a low degree of development, life, and mind--just a little more than the units of "living energy" which comprise the higher sub-divisions of the highest Physical Plane.
从某种意义上讲，这些实体可以称作灵魂，它们是处于低级发展阶段的生命体，是生命与思想发展的萌芽状态，仅仅比包含位于最高级物质层面中较高级的小层面的生命能量的组合体高级一点点。
The average mind does not generally attribute the possession of mind, soul, or life, to the mineral kingdom, but all occultists recognize the existence of the same, and modern science is rapidly moving forward to the point-of-view of the Hermetic,
普通人一般不会认为矿物质层面具有思想、灵魂或者生命，但是所有的神秘主义者都这么认为，他们相信矿物质是有生命的。
in this respect. The molecules, atoms and corpuscles have their "loves and hates"; "likes and dislikes"; "attractions and repulsions". "affinities and non-affinities," etc.,
在这一点上，现代科学也转变了立场，接受了赫尔墨斯的观点。他们认为分子、原子和细胞都是有心理有感情的，它们都有自己的爱与恨、喜欢与厌恶，这样它们会相互吸引，或者相互排斥，等等。
and some of the more daring of modern scientific minds have expressed the opinion that the desire and will, emotions and feelings, of the atoms differ only in degree from those of men.
甚至现代科学领域有一些更大胆的想法，有人提出原子是有自己的愿望和意志的，它们是有感情和感觉的，而且它们的情感跟人类情感相比只是程度不同而已。
We have no time or space to argue this matter here.
All occultists know it to be a fact, and others are referred to some of the more recent scientific works for outside corroboration. There are the usual seven sub-divisions to this plane.
在此，我们就不再深入讨论这一问题。
神秘主义者认为这是无可争议的事实，其余的观点是近来科学界给出的证据。和前面的层面一样，这一层面也含有七个亚层面。
The Plane of Elemental Mind (A) comprises the state or condition, and degree of mental and vital development of a class of entities unknown to the average man, but recognized to occultists.
基础思想层面（A）也是指一种状态或者状况，以及这一类实体的精神上的至关重要的发展等级。这些实体是普通人所不熟悉的，但是神秘主义者却认识到了。
They are invisible to the ordinary senses of man, but, nevertheless, exist and play their part of the Drama of the Universe. Their degree of intelligence is between that of the mineral and chemical entities on the one hand, and of the entities of the plant kingdom on the other. There are seven subdivisions to this plane, also.
人们并不能看到也感觉不到这些实体，但它们却是实实在在存在的，并且在宇宙中发挥着它们特有的作用。它们的思维能力介于矿物质、化学物质实体和植物实体之间。同样，这一层面之下也包括七个亚层面。
The Plane of Plant Mind, in its seven sub-divisions, comprises the states or conditions of the entities comprising the kingdoms of the Plant World, the vital and mental phenomena of which is fairly well understood by the average intelligent person, many new and interesting scientific works regarding "Mind and Life in Plants" having been published during the last decade.
Plants have life, mind and "souls," as well as have the animals, man, and super-man.
植物思想层面，下分七个亚层面，包含构成植物王国的实体的状态或者状况。这一层面上不可忽视的心理现象是具有一般理解力的普通人就能明白的。
过去十年有许多关于植物及其心理的科学成果发表，这些新出版的文章或者书籍都很有意思。
植物是有生命的，就像动物、人类和超人类有生命意义一样。 （加速，可在视频中看见植物如动物）
The Plane of Elemental Mind (B), in its seven sub-divisions, comprises the states and conditions of a higher form of "elemental" or unseen entities, playing their part in the general work of the Universe, the mind and life of which form a part of the scale between the Plane of Plant Mind and the Plane of Animal Mind, the entities partaking of the nature of both.
基础思想层面（B）下分七个亚层面，同样是指某种状态或者状况，是一些基础的、无形实体的更高级形式的状态或者状况。它在宇宙中发挥着独特的作用。这一层面处于植物思想层面和动物思想层面之间，同时具有两个层面的特征。
The Plane of Animal Mind, in its seven sub-divisions, comprises the states and conditions of the entities, beings, or souls, animating the animal forms of life, familiar to us all. It is not necessary to go into details regarding this kingdom or plane of life, for the animal world is as familiar to us as is our own.
动物思想层面下分七个亚层面，包含一些实体、生命体或者灵魂的状态和状况。正是这些实体、生命体和灵魂赋予了我们所熟知的生命以生命力和活力。关于动物王国这一层面我们就没必要详述了，因为人们对动物的了解已经像对人类自身了解一样了。
The Plane of Elemental Mind (C), in its seven sub-divisions, comprises those entities or beings, invisible as are all such elemental forms, which partake of the nature of both animal and human life in a degree and in certain combinations. The highest forms are semi-human in intelligence.
基础思想层面 (C)的七个亚层面包含一些实体和生命体的状态。这些实体、生命体和基础形式一样是无形的，同时具有动物和人类的特征。这一层面的最高形式在理解力和智力方面已与人类相当。
The Plane of Human Mind, in its seven sub-divisions, comprises those manifestations of life and mentality which are common to Man, in his various grades, degrees, and divisions.
人类思想层面，同样可以分为七个亚层面，包含生命和精神力的表征，这些都是人们所熟悉的。这些表征分为不同的等级、程度和类别。
In this connection, we wish to point out the fact that the average man of today occupies but the fourth sub-division of the Plane of Human Mind, and only the most intelligent have crossed the borders of the Fifth Sub-Division.
在此，我们想强调一点：今天的普通人只不过位于人类思想层面的第四个小层面上，只有最聪明的人才可以跨过这一层面达到第五个小层面。
It has taken the race millions of years to reach this stage, and it will take many more years for the race to move on to the sixth and seventh sub-divisions, and beyond.
尽管如此，人类是经过了数百万年的历史才发展到这一层面的。要想达到更高级的第六和第七甚至更高的层面，人们还得发展数百万以至更多的时间。
But, remember, that there have been races before us which have passed through these degrees, and then on to higher planes.
但是，我们应该知道，有些生物种类已经先于我们经过了这些发展阶段，达到了更高的层面；
Our own race is the fifth (with stragglers from the fourth) which has set foot upon The Path.
而人类才刚刚步入第五层面（与第四层面上的落伍者相伴）。
And, then there are a few advanced souls of our own race who have outstripped the masses, and who have passed on to the sixth and seventh sub-division, and some few being still further on.
尽管如此，人类当中还是有一部分精神境界高的人已经超过了大部分普通人，进入了第六和第七小层面，甚至有极少数领先的进入了更高的层面。
The man of the Sixth Sub-Division will be "The Super-Man"; he of the Seventh will be "The Over-Man."
进入了第六小层面的人可以被称为超人（The Super-Man），而进入了第七层面的人就可以被称为圣人（The Over-Man）了。
In our consideration of the Seven Minor Mental Planes, we have merely referred to the Three Elementary Planes in a general way.
We do not wish to go into this subject in detail in this work, for it does not belong to this part of the general philosophy and teachings.
以上我们讨论了思想层面的七个小层面，但是对于其中的三个基础层面我们只是做了概要介绍，本书不再深入探讨，因为它与普通哲学的相关内容关联不大。
But we may say this much, in order to give you a little clearer idea, of the relations of these planes to the more familiar ones
但是为了让大家对这些层面和大家更熟悉的基础层面之间的关系有一个更清楚的了解，我们再做一下补充说明。
--the Elementary Planes bear the same relation to the Planes of Mineral, Plant, Animal and Human Mentality and Life, that the black keys on the piano do to the white keys.
基础层面和其他层面，例如，矿物质、植物、动物以及人类思想层面的关系就如同钢琴键盘上的黑键白键的关系一样。
The white keys are sufficient to produce music, but there are certain scales, melodies, and harmonies, in which the black keys play their part, and in which their presence is necessary.
如仅供演奏之需，仅白键就足够了。
但是仍有一些音阶、旋律以及和谐之音是需要过渡的黑键来演绎的，这样黑键的存在就是必要的了。
They are also necessary as "connecting links" of soul-condition; entity states, etc., between the several other planes, certain forms of development being attained therein
同样，基础层面就像黑键一样，充当着不同等级的精神状态之间的连接角色，有一些发展实体形式已经达到了一个更高的等级。
--this last fact giving to the reader who can "read between the lines" a new light upon the processes of Evolution, and a new key to the secret door of the "leaps of life" between kingdom and kingdom.
如果读者可以领悟以上事实的言外之意，他就能明白这其实是一种进化过程，这样他也就掌握了从一个生命王国迈进另一个生命王国之门的钥匙，这里的每一步都是生命进化的飞跃。
The great kingdoms of Elementals are fully recognized by all occultists, and the esoteric writings are full of mention of them.
神秘主义者已经完全接受了这些基础层面的偌大的王国，这在他们历代的著作中都有充分体现。
The readers of Bulwer's "Zanoni" and similar tales will recognize the entities inhabiting these planes of life.
你如果有机会读一下十九世纪的英国大师布尔沃•利顿（Bulwer Lytton）的《扎罗尼》（Zanoni）或者类似的故事，你就会对这些生命层面的各种实体有一个新的认识。
The Hermetic Principle of Mentalism, while explaining the true nature of the Universe upon the principle that all is Mental, does not change the scientific conceptions of the Universe, Life, or Evolution.
赫尔墨斯的精神法则，尽管借由一切都是精神的法则来解释宇宙的真正本质，但并没有改变宇宙、生命或进化的科学内涵。
In fact, science merely corroborates the Hermetic Teachings. The latter merely teaches that the nature of the Universe is "Mental," while modern science has taught that it is "Material"; or (of late) that it is "Energy" at the last analysis. The Hermetic Teachings have no fault to find with Herbert Spencer's basic principle which postulates the existence of an "Infinite and Eternal Energy, from which all things proceed."
事实上，科学只是验证了赫尔墨斯的神秘学说。后者只是告诉我们宇宙的本质是精神的，而现代科学则说它是物质的，或者最近分析说是能量。赫尔墨斯学说与赫伯特•斯宾塞（Herbert Spencer）假设存在一个使万事万物持续下去的无限和永恒的能量的基本法则完全一致。
In fact, the Hermetics recognize in Spencer's philosophy the highest outside statement of the workings of the Natural Laws that have ever been promulgated, and they believe Spencer to have been a reincarnation of an ancient philosopher who dwelt in ancient Egypt thousands of years ago, and who later incarnated as Heraclitus, the Grecian philosopher who lived B. C. 500.
事实上，赫尔墨斯主义者认识到在斯宾塞的哲学中有着曾经传播的关于自然法则运行的最高陈述，而且他们相信斯宾塞是几千年前居住在古埃及的一位古代哲学家的再生，后来这位哲学家化身为生活在公元前500年古希腊哲学家赫拉克利特。
And they regard his statement of the "Infinite and Eternal Energy" as directly in the line of the Hermetic Teachings, always with the addition of their own doctrine that his "Energy" is the Energy of the Mind of THE ALL.
他们把他的关于无限和永恒的能量的论述视为与赫尔墨斯学说直接一脉相承，总是在关于他们自己的法则的补充说明中说，他的能量就是全能者思想的能量。
With the Master-Key of the Hermetic Philosophy, the student of Spencer will be able to unlock many doors of the inner philosophical conceptions of the great English philosopher, whose work shows the results of the preparation of his previous incarnations.
用赫尔墨斯学说的万能钥匙，斯宾塞的学生将能够打开这位伟大的英国哲学家关于内在哲学的许多概念之门。
His teachings regarding Evolution and Rhythm are in almost perfect agreement with the Hermetic Teachings regarding the Principle of Rhythm.
斯宾塞关于进化和节律的学说与赫尔墨斯关于节律法则的学说几乎完全一致。
So, the student of Hermetics need not lay aside any of his cherished scientific views regarding the Universe. All he is asked to do is to grasp the underlying principle of "THE ALL is Mind; the Universe is Mental--held in the mind of THE ALL."
因此，赫尔墨斯的学生不必把他任何宝贵的关于宇宙的科学观点放到一边。他所需要做的是领会隐藏着的：全能者是思想；在全能者的思想里，宇宙是精神的。
He will find that the other six of the Seven Principles will "fit into" his scientific knowledge, and will serve to bring out obscure points and to throw light in dark corners.
他将会发现其他的六项法则非常吻合他的科学知识，并有利于推导出深奥的难点和照亮黑暗的角落。
This is not to be wondered at, when we realize the influence of the Hermetic thought of the early philosophers of Greece, upon whose foundations of thought the theories of modern science largely rest.
当我们意识到赫尔墨斯心理对早期希腊哲学的影响，以及现代科学理论极大地建立在它的基础上，我们对这一点就毫不足奇了。
The acceptance of the First Hermetic Principle (Mentalism) is the only great point of difference between Modern Science and Hermetic students, and Science is gradually moving toward the Hermetic position in its groping in the dark for a way out of the Labyrinth into which it has wandered in its search for Reality.
对第一法则（精神法则）的接受只是赫尔墨斯学生与现代科学之间的一个极大的不同之处，科学正在黑暗中摸索而逐步移向赫尔墨斯学说的位置，以便走出一直在其中徘徊的迷宫，从而找到真理。
The purpose of this lesson is to impress upon the minds of our students the fact that, to all intents and purposes, the Universe and its laws, and its phenomena, are just as REAL, so far as Man is concerned, as they would be under the hypotheses of Materialism or Energism.
这节课的目的，是要给我们的学生大脑里留下这样的印象对所有的意图和目的来说，宇宙和它的法则，以及它的各种现象，确实象对人类所认为的那样真实，他们应当是处于唯物主义和能量主义的假设之下。
Under any hypothesis the Universe in its outer aspect is changing, ever-flowing, and transitory--and therefore devoid of substantiality and reality.
在任何假设之下，宇宙的外层领域都在变化、永远流动并且是短暂的——因此没有实体和真实性。
But (note the other pole of the truth) under the same hypotheses, we are compelled to ACT AND LIVE as if the fleeting things were real and substantial. With this difference, always, between the various hypotheses--that under the old views Mental Power was ignored as a Natural Force, while under Mentalism it becomes the Greatest Natural Force.
但（注意：真理的另一极性）在任何相同的假设之下，我们都必须行动和生活，好像流动的事物是真实和确定的。由于这样的不同，总是在不同的假设之间——在老观点之下，精神能量像自然的力量一样被忽视，但在精神法则之下，它成了最伟大的自然力量。
And this one difference revolutionizes Life, to those who understand the Principle and its resulting laws and practice.
对于领会这个法则及其卓有成效的实践的人来说，正是这一点不同使生命发生了革命性的变化。
So, finally, students all, grasp the advantage of Mentalism, and learn to know, use and apply the laws resulting therefrom.
因此，所有学生最后都领会精神法则的优势，并从此学着运用这些法则。
But do not yield to the temptation which, as The Kybalion states, overcomes the half-wise and which causes them to be hypnotized by the apparent unreality of things, the consequence being that they wander about like dream-people dwelling in a world of dreams, ignoring the practical work and life of man, the end being that "they are broken against the rocks and torn asunder by the elements, by reason of their folly."
但是不要屈从那些诱惑，正如Kybalion中所说的，要超越小智小慧，那会导致他们迷惑于事情非真实的显化上，那样的结果就是他们如同做梦者般活在梦中世界里，忽视人类实际的工作和生活，最终“因为他们自己的愚蠢，搬起石头，砸自己的脚。”
Rather follow the example of the wise, which the same authority states, "use Law against Laws; the higher against the lower; and by the Art of Alchemy transmute that which is undesirable into that which is worthy, and thus triumph."
故此，不如追随聪明人所树立的榜样，运用大法则抵制小法则用高级的抵制低级的并运用炼金术来把不想要的变成有价值的，进而获得成功。
Following the authority, let us avoid the half-wisdom (which is folly) which ignores the truth that: "Mastery consists not in abnormal dreams, visions, and fantastic imaginings or living, but in using the higher forces against the lower--escaping the pains of the lower planes by vibrating on the higher.
跟随权威，让我们牢记这样的事实：“成功不在于漫无边际的梦想、幻想和令人着迷的意象或生活。而在于利用较高的力量对抗较低的力量——在更高层面振动以避开较低层面的疼痛。”
" Remember always, student, that "Transmutation, not presumptuous denial, is the weapon of the Master." The above quotations are from The Kybalion, and are worthy of being committed to memory by the student.
学生们要永远记住：成功者的武器是转化，而不是自以为是地否定。以上引言来自Kybalion，值得学生们设法深深印记。
We do not live in a world of dreams, but in an Universe which while relative, is real so far as our lives and actions are concerned. Our business in the Universe is not to deny its existence, but to LIVE, using the Laws to rise from lower to higher--living on, doing the best that we can under the circumstances arising each day, and living, so far as is possible, to our biggest ideas and ideals.
就我们的生命和行动来说，我们不是生活在梦想的世界，而是在相对真实的宇宙中。我们在宇宙中的任务不是否定它的存在，而是生活，是运用法则而从更低的层面上升到更高的层面——持续生活，在每天出现的环境下做到我们所能做到的最好程度，直到我们可能达到的最伟大的思想和理想。
The true Meaning of Life is not known to men on this plane .if, indeed, to any--but the highest authorities, and our own intuitions, teach us that we will make no mistake in living up to the best that is in us, so far as is possible, and realising the Universal tendency in the same direction in spite of apparent evidence to the contrary.
We are all on The Path--and the road leads upward ever, with frequent resting places.
在这个层面上，人们不懂得生活的真正意义——真的，任何人都不懂——但最高的权威，或我们的直觉告诉我们，我们将不会在上升到我们所能到达的最高的境界中犯错误，并意识到无论出现多少明显相反的证据，宇宙趋势都与我们在同一方向上。
我们全都在路上——这条路永远向上，并时常有可以停靠的地方。
Read the message of The Kybalion
--and follow the example of "the wise"-
-avoiding the mistake of "the half-wise" who perish by reason of their folly.
要读懂Kybalion的信息：
——跟随“智者”的榜样
——避免“小智小慧”的错误，他们因为愚蠢而枯萎。
第三章 精神转化
"Mind (as well as metals and elements) may be transmuted,
from state to state; degree to degree; condition to condition;
pole to pole; vibration to vibration. True Hermetic Transmutation
is a Mental Art."--The Kybalion.
思想（就像金属和元素一样）是可以转化的，从一种状态到另一种状态；从一种层级到另一种层级；从一种境界到另一种境界；从一种极性到另一种极性；从一种波到另一种波。真正的赫尔墨斯转化是一种精神艺术。
——Kybalion
As we have stated, the Hermetists were the original alchemists, astrologers, and psychologists, Hermes having been the founder of these schools of thought.
正如我们已经说过的，赫尔墨斯主义者是最原始的炼金术士、占星学家和心理学家，赫尔墨斯一直是这些心理学派的奠基人。
From astrology has grown modern astronomy; from alchemy has grown modern chemistry; from the mystic psychology has grown the modern psychology of the schools.
从占星学演变出现代天文学；从炼金术演变出现代化学；从神秘心理学演变出现代各个学派的心理学。
But it must not be supposed that the ancients were ignorant of that which the modern schools suppose to be their exclusive and special property.
但不要认为古人对那些现代学派们认为是他们专有和独特的知识财产很无知。
The records engraved on the stones of Ancient Egypt show conclusively that the ancients had a full comprehensive knowledge of astronomy, the very building of the Pyramids showing the connection between their design and the study of astronomical science.
雕刻在古埃及石头上的记录极具说服力地显示，古人具备完整的天文学知识，恰恰是非凡的埃及金字塔的建筑证实了他们的设计和天文科学研究之间的联系。
Nor were they ignorant of Chemistry, for the fragments of the ancient writings show that they were acquainted with the chemical properties of things;
他们也不是对化学无知，因为古代的书面残片显示，他们知晓事物的化学特性
in fact, the ancient theories regarding physics are being slowly verified by the latest discoveries of modern science, notably those relating to the constitution of matter.
——事实上，古代关于物理的理论正逐渐被现代科学的最新发现所证实，特别是那些有关物质构成的。
Nor must it be supposed that they were ignorant of the so-called modern discoveries in psychology
也不要认为他们对所谓的现代心理学上的发现非常无知
--on the contrary, the Egyptians were especially skilled in the science of Psychology, particularly in the branches that the modern schools ignore, but which, nevertheless, are being uncovered under the name of "psychic science" which is perplexing the psychologists of to-day, and making them reluctantly admit that "there may be something in it after all."
——相反，古埃及人尤其擅长心理学，特别是那些现代学派忽略的分支，然而，这些正在心灵科学的名义下得到揭示，而这些正困惑着今天的心理学家，并且迫使他们不情愿地承认终究，或许有一些东西在它里面。
The truth is, that beneath the material chemistry, astronomy and psychology (that is, the psychology in its phase of "brain-action") the ancients possessed a knowledge of transcendental astronomy, called astrology; of transcendental chemistry, called alchemy; of transcendental psychology, called mystic psychology.
事实是，在物质性的化学、天文学和心理学（心理学处于脑行为阶段）之下，古人还具有超越人类智慧的天文学，称为占星学；超越人类智慧的化学，称为炼金术；超越人类智慧的心理学，称为秘密心理学。
They possessed the Inner Knowledge as well as the Outer Knowledge, the latter alone being possessed by modern scientists.
他们同时具有内在的知识和外在的知识，而现代科学家只具有后者。
Among the many secret branches of knowledge possessed by the Hermetists, was that known as Mental Transmutation, which forms the subject matter of this lesson.
在赫尔墨斯主义者掌握的许多秘密分支中，就有人们所知道的精神转化，它构成了这一节课的主要内容。
"Transmutation" is a term usually employed to designate the ancient art of the transmutation of metals--particularly of the base metals into gold.
转化是一个经常用来说明古代关于金属转化技艺的词语——尤其是把基本金属转化为纯金。
The word "Transmute" means "to change from one nature, form, or substance, into another; to transform" (Webster).
转化的词意是从一种性质、形式或物质转变为另一种；使改变。
And accordingly, "Mental Transmutation" means the art of changing and transforming mental states, forms, and conditions, into others.
相应地，精神转化意思是改变和转化精神状态、形式和境况，使之成为另一种精神状态、形式和境况的艺术。
So you may see that Mental Transmutation is the "Art of Mental Chemistry," if you like the term--a form of practical Mystic Psychology.
因此，你会明白精神转化是精神化学的艺术，如果你喜欢这个词——实用的神秘心理学的一种。
But this means far more than appears on the surface.
但是，这个词的内涵远远超出表面显现的。
Transmutation, Alchemy, or Chemistry on the Mental Plane is important enough in its effects, to be sure, and if the art stopped there it would still be one of the most important branches of study known to man.
思想层面上的转化、炼金术或化学的作用十分十分地重要，可以确信，即使这种方法、艺术已经停止或中断，它依然是人类所知的最重要的一个研究分支。
But this is only the beginning. Let us see why!
然而，这种研究仅仅是一个开始。让我们看为什么！
The first of the Seven Hermetic Principles is the Principle of Mentalism, the axiom of which is "THE ALL is Mind; the Universe is Mental,"
七项神秘法则的第一项是精神法则，箴言说：全能者是思想，宇宙是精神，
which means that the Underlying Reality of the Universe is Mind; and the Universe itself is Mental--that is, "existing in the Mind of THE ALL."
这就是说隐藏在宇宙事实下面的实质是思想。还有宇宙自身是精神——那就是，一切都存在于全能者的思想中。
We shall consider this Principle in succeeding lessons, but let us see the effect of the principle if it be assumed to be true.
在接下来的课程中，我们将仔细讲解这个法则，但如果这个法则被假定是正确的，让我们看看它的效应。
If the Universe is Mental in its nature, then Mental Transmutation must be the art of CHANGING THE CONDITIONS OF THE UNIVERSE, along the lines of Matter, Force and mind. So you see, therefore, that Mental Transmutation is really the "Magic" of which the ancient; writers had so much to say in their mystical works, and about which they gave so few practical instructions.
如果宇宙在本质上是精神，那么精神转化一定是沿着物质、力量和思想的路线改变宇宙境况的艺术。因此，你会明白，精神转化是古代作家在他们神秘的作品中大量论及的、真正的魔法，而其中给予的实际指导却又是那么少。
If All be Mental, then the art which enables one to transmute mental conditions must render the Master the controller of material conditions as well as those ordinarily called "mental."
如果一切都是精神，那么能使一个人转化思想状态的方法或艺术，一定使得大师可以控制物质状态，就像控制通常所说的精神一样。
As a matter of fact, none but advanced Mental Alchemists have been able to attain the degree of power necessary to control the grosser physical conditions,
可事实上，没有人而只有高超的精神大师，能够获得必要层级的能量来控制更为原始的物理状况，
such as the control of the elements of Nature; the production or cessation of tempests; the production and cessation of earthquakes and other great physical phenomena.
例如：控制自然元素；暴风雨的形成和停止；地震的产生和停止；还有其他大规模的物理现象。
But that such men have existed, and do exist today, is a matter of earnest belief to all advanced occultists of all schools.
但是，这样的人曾有过，而且今天确实有，这是所有学派中所有高超的神秘主义者都真诚相信的一件事情。
That the Masters exist, and have these powers, the best teachers assure their students, having had experiences which justify them in such belief and statements.
这样的大师存在，而且具有这些能量，最优秀的老师向他们的学生保证——已经有经验事实证明他们相信这样的信念和主张是有根据的。
These Masters do not make public exhibitions of their powers, but seek seclusion from the crowds of men, in order to better work their may along the Path of Attainment.
这些大师没有公开展示他们的能量，而是远离喧闹的人群去隐居，是为了更好地沿着通达之路进行他们的修炼。
We mention their existence, at this point, merely to call your attention to the fact that their power is entirely Mental, and operates along the lines of the higher Mental Transmutation, under the Hermetic Principle of Mentalism.
我们提及他们的存在，在这一点上，只是为了激发你关注这样的事实，即他们的能量完全是精神的，而且是在神秘的精神法则的指引下沿着更高层级的精神转化运行。
"The Universe is Mental"--The Kybalion.
宇宙是精神--The Kybalion
But students and Hermetists of lesser degree than Masters--the Initiates and Teachers--are able to freely work along the Mental Plane, in Mental Transmutation.
但是，学生们和比大师们（启蒙者和老师们）层级更低的赫尔墨斯主义者一样能够在精神转化上自由地沿着精神层面来运作。
In fact all that we call "psychic phenomena,"; "mental influence"; "mental science"; "new-thought phenomena," etc., operates along the same general lines, for there is but one principle involved, no matter by what name the phenomena be called.
实际上，所有我们所说的心灵现象、精神影响、精神科学、新思想奇迹等等，都是按照相同的总体路径来运行的，因为只涉及一项法则，而无论这些现象被叫什么名称。
The student and practitioner of Mental Transmutation works among the Mental Plane, transmuting mental conditions, states, etc., into others, according to various formulas, more or less efficacious.
精神转化的学生和从业者根据不同的准则在精神层面中运作，把一种精神状态、倾向转变为另一种，或多或少是灵验的。
The various "treatments," "affirmations," "denials" etc., of the schools of mental science are but formulas, often quite imperfect and unscientific, of The Hermetic Art.
精神科学各学派不同的疗法、肯定、否定等等，都只是赫尔墨斯艺术的准则，通常很不完善，也不科学。
The majority of modern practitioners are quite ignorant compared to the ancient masters, for they lack the fundamental knowledge upon which the work is based.
与古代大师们相比，大多数现代从业者是相当无知的，因为他们缺乏这项工作建立于其上的基本知识。
Not only may the mental states, etc., of one's self be changed or transmuted by Hermetic Methods; but also the states of others may be, and are, constantly transmuted in the same way, usually unconsciously,
不仅一个人自身的精神状态可以通过赫尔墨斯的方法而发生改变或转化，而且别人的心理状态也可以以相同的方式发生改变或转化，通常是无意识的，
but often consciously by some understanding the laws and principles, in cases where the people affected are not informed of the principles of self-protection.
但一些领会这些法则和法则的人经常可以有意识地转化，只要受影响的人不是充满自我防卫意识。
And more than this, as many students and practitioners of modern mental science know, every material condition depending upon the minds of other people may be changed or transmuted in accordance with the earnest desire, will, and "treatments" of person desiring changed conditions of life.
不但如此，就像现代精神科学的许多学生和从业者所知道的，依赖于其它人思想的每一种物质条件，可以按照渴望改变生活条件的人真诚热切的欲望、意志和态度而发生改变或转化。
The public are so generally informed regarding these things at present, that we do not deem it necessary to mention the same at length, our purpose at this point being merely to show the Hermetic Principle and Art underlying all of these various forms of practice, good and evil, for the force can be used in opposite directions according to the Hermetic Principles of Polarity.
目前，公众经常被告知有关这些事情，因此，我们不认为有必要详尽地提及相同的内容，在这一点上，我们的目的只是说明潜藏于不同实际操练形式之下的赫尔墨斯法则和艺术，也不论其好坏，因为根据赫尔墨斯极性法则，力量可以应用在相反的方向上。
In this little book we shall state the basic principles of Mental Transmutation, that all who read may grasp the Underlying Principles, and thus possess the Master-Key that will unlock the many doors of the Principle of Polarity.
在这本小书中，我们将讲述精神转化的基础法则，以使所有读它的人可以掌握这些隐藏的法则，因而拥有打开极性法则许多大门的万能钥匙。
We shall now proceed to a consideration of the first of the Hermetic Seven Principles--the Principle of Mentalism, in which is explained the truth that "THE ALL is Mind; the Universe is Mental," in the words of The Kybalion.
现在我们将继续解说赫尔墨斯七项法则的第一项——精神法则，它解释了这个真理——全能者是思想；宇宙是精神。
We ask the close attention, and careful study of this great Principle, on the part of our students, for it is really the Basic Principle of the whole Hermetic Philosophy, and of the Hermetic Art of Mental Transmutation.
就我们的学生而言，我们要求他们密切关注和仔细研究这项伟大的法则，因为它确实是整个赫尔墨斯哲学和赫尔墨斯精神转化艺术的基本法则。
第二章 七个赫尔墨斯法则
"The Principles of Truth are Seven; he who knows these,
understandingly, possesses the Magic Key before whose
touch all the Doors of the Temple fly open."--The Kybalion.
真理的法则有七项。懂得这些法则的人，将拥有一把神奇的钥匙，触及庙堂的所有门都会自动打开。——Kybalion
The Seven Hermetic Principles, upon which the entire Hermetic Philosophy is based, are as follows:
整个的赫尔墨斯哲学都建立在七个赫尔墨斯法则上，法则如下：
1. The Principle of Mentalism.
2. The Principle of Correspondence.
3. The Principle of Vibration.
4. The Principle of Polarity.
5. The Principle of Rhythm.
6. The Principle of Cause and Effect.
7. The Principle of Gender.
1. the principle of mentalism 精神法则
2. the principle of correspondence 一致法则
3. the principle of vibration 振动法则
4. the principle of polarity 极性法则
5. the principle of rhythm 节律法则
6. the principle of cause & effect 因果法则
7. the principle of gender 性别法则
These Seven Principles will be discussed and explained as we proceed with these lessons. A short explanation of each, however, may as well be given at this point.
这七个法则将在后面的课程里进一步讨论和说明。这里只对每一个进行简短解释。
1. The Principle of Mentalism
I.精神法则
"THE ALL IS MIND; The Universe is Mental."--The Kybalion.
全能者是思想；宇宙是精神。——Kybalion
This Principle embodies the truth that "All is Mind."
It explains that THE ALL (which is the Substantial Reality underlying all the outward manifestations and appearances which we know under the terms of "The Material Universe"; the "Phenomena of Life"; "Matter"; "Energy"; and, in short, all that is apparent to our material senses) is SPIRIT which in itself is UNKNOWABLE and UNDEFINABLE, but which may be considered and thought of as AN UNIVERSAL, INFINITE, LIVING MIND.
这个法则包括这样的真理，即一切都是思想。
它表明万事万物，包括隐含在所有外在表征和现象即我们所知的物质世界之下的大量事实、生命现象、物质、能量，一句话，一切对于我们的身体感官来说显而易见的事物，都是精神，而它本身是不可知和不可界定的，但可以视为一体的、无限的、充满生命力的思想。
It also explains that all the phenomenal world or universe is simply a Mental Creation of THE ALL, subject to the Laws of Created Things, and that the universe, as a whole, and in its parts or units, has its existence in the Mind of THE ALL, in which Mind we "live and move and have our being."
它也说明现象世界或宇宙只是全能者的精神创造罢了，它们遵从于事物的创造法则。而宇宙作为一个整体，以及它的各个部分或单元，在全能者的思想中都有它的存在，在思想那里，我们“生活着、运动着，并拥有我们的存在体”。
This Principle, by establishing the Mental Nature of the Universe, easily explains all of the varied mental and psychic phenomena that occupy such a large portion of the public attention, and which, without such explanation, are non-understandable and defy scientific treatment.
这个法则，通过宇宙精神特质的建造，很容易地解释所有各式各样的占据如此一大部分公众注意力的精神和心灵现象，而且，没有这样的解释是不可理解和不符合科学论述的。
An understanding of this great Hermetic Principle of Mentalism enables the individual to readily grasp the laws of the Mental Universe, and to apply the same to his well-being and advancement.
对这个伟大神秘精神法则的理解，使个体能充分地领会宇宙的精神法则，而且同样地应用于自己的健康和进步。
The Hermetic Student is enabled to apply intelligently the great Mental Laws, instead of using them in a haphazard manner.
赫尔墨斯神秘学说的学生能够聪明地运用这些伟大的精神法则，而不是偶然地应用它们。
With the Master-Key in his possession, the student may unlock the many doors of the mental and psychic temple of knowledge, and enter the same freely and intelligently.
由于拥有这样的万能钥匙，学生可以打开许多精神和心灵圣殿之门，也同样可以自由和明智地进去。
This Principle explains the true nature of "Energy," "Power," and "Matter," and why and how all these are subordinate to the Mastery of Mind.
这个法则解释了能量、力量和物质的真正特质，以及这些为什么和怎样从属于精神的主宰。
One of the old Hermetic Masters wrote, long ages ago: "He who grasps the truth of the Mental Nature of the Universe is well advanced on The Path to Mastery." And these words are as true today as at the time they were first written. Without this Master-Key, Mastery is impossible, and the student knocks in vain at the many doors of The Temple.
很久很久以前，一位古老的神秘大师写道：掌握宇宙精神特质真理的人，将在通往权力的道路上遥遥领先。这些话在今天仍然是正确的，就像它刚被写下的最初时刻那样。没有这把万能钥匙，获得权力是不可能的，而学生也只能在许多圣殿的门前徒劳地敲击。
2. The Principle of Correspondence
II.一致法则
"As above, so below; as below, so above."--The Kybalion.
源头怎样，支流就怎样；支流怎样，源头就怎样。——Kybalion
as Above, so Below; as Below, so Above.——Kybalion
其下如其上；其上如其下。——Kybalion
This Principle embodies the truth that there is always a Correspondence between the laws and phenomena of the various planes of Being and Life. The old Hermetic axiom ran in these words: "As above, so below; as below, so above."
这个法则包含了这样的真理，即在法则与万物和生命各个层面的现象之间总是有着一致性。古老的赫尔墨斯公理用这样的话讲述：“源头怎样，支流就怎样；支流怎样，源头就怎样。”
And the grasping of this Principle gives one the means of solving many a dark paradox, and hidden secret of Nature.
领会这个法则，可给一个人以有效的方法来解释许多看似自相矛盾的隐晦说法，以及隐藏着的自然秘密。
There are planes beyond our knowing, but when we apply the Principle of Correspondence to them we are able to understand much that would otherwise be unknowable to us.
有很多层面超出我们的所知，但当我们应用一致法则来面对它们，我们就理解很多，否则，我们将对其懵懂无知。
This Principle is of universal application and manifestation, on the various planes of the material, mental, and spiritual universe--it is an Universal Law.
这个法则在物质、精神和灵魂世界的层面上是普遍适用和广泛显现的，它是一个宇宙法则。
The ancient Hermetists considered this Principle as one of the most important mental instruments by which man was able to pry aside the obstacles which hid from view the Unknown.
古代的赫尔墨斯主义者把这个法则看作是一个最强大的心理工具，它可以使人撬开隐藏于某处的看不见的障碍。
Its use even tore aside the Veil of Isis to the extent that a glimpse of the face of the goddess might be caught.
它的应用甚至撕开伊西斯的神秘面纱，以致我们可以窥见女神的容颜。
Just as a knowledge of the Principles of Geometry enables man to measure distant suns and their movements, while seated in his observatory, so a knowledge of the Principle of Correspondence enables Man to reason intelligently from the Known to the Unknown. Studying the monad, he understands the archangel.
正如几何法则的知识使人坐在天文台上就能够测量遥远恒星的距离，以及它们的运动，因此一致法则的知识可以使人聪明地从已知推测出未知。研究单细胞，他就理解天使长。
3. The Principle of Vibration
III.振动法则
"Nothing rests; everything moves; everything vibrates."—The Kybalion.
没有什么事物是静止的；一切都运动； 一切都振动。——Kybalion
This Principle embodies the truth that "everything is in motion"; "everything vibrates"; "nothing is at rest"; facts which Modern Science endorses, and which each new scientific discovery tends to verify.
这个法则指明了这样的真理，即“每一种事物都处于运动状态之中”、“每一种事物都振动”、“没有什么事物是静止的”。这个事实已得到现代科学认同，而且每一种新的科学发现都一再证实它。
And yet this Hermetic Principle was enunciated thousands of years ago, by the Masters of Ancient Egypt. This Principle explains that the differences between different manifestations of Matter, Energy, Mind, and even Spirit, result largely from varying rates of Vibration.
这一神秘的法则是由几千年前古代埃及的大师们所阐述的。这个法则揭示了物质、能量、思想等不同显化之间的区别，这些区别很大程度上起源于振动频率的各不相同。
From THE ALL, which is Pure Spirit, down to the grossest form of Matter, all is in vibration--the higher the vibration, the higher the position in the scale.
从作为一切源头的纯粹精神到形态最粗陋的物质，全都处于振动状态——振动频率越高，就越处于高等级的位置。
The vibration of Spirit is at such an infinite rate of intensity and rapidity that it is practically at rest--just as a rapidly moving wheel seems to be motionless.
精神振动频率的强度和速度无限大，以致它几乎是静止不动的——正如快速飞转的轮子似乎是一动不动的那样。
And at the other end of the scale, there are gross forms of matter whose vibrations are so low as to seem at rest.
在等级的另一极端，形态粗陋的物质振动频率是如此之低，以致看起来也是静止的。
Between these poles, there are millions upon millions of varying degrees of vibration.
在这两个极端之间，有成百上千种不同程度的振动频率。
From corpuscle and electron, atom and molecule, to worlds and universes, everything is in vibratory motion. This is also true on the planes of energy and force (which are but varying degrees of vibration); and also on the mental planes (whose states depend upon vibrations); and even on to the spiritual planes.
从血细胞和电子、原子和分子，到世界和宇宙，每一种事物都处于振动性的运动状态中。在能量和力量（它们只是不同程度的振动波）层面上，这也是正确的。
在心理（它的存在状态有赖于振动波）层面亦如此，甚至在精神层面也一样。
An understanding of this Principle, with the appropriate formulas, enables Hermetic students to control their own mental vibrations as well as those of others.
按恰当的准则来领会这个法则，能使赫尔墨斯的学生们控制他们的心理振动波，以及其他层面的振动波。
The Masters also apply this Principle to the conquering of Natural phenomena, in various ways.
大师们也以不同的形式应用这个法则来征服自然现象。
He who understands the Principle of Vibration, has grasped the scepter of power," says one of the old writers.
那些理解了振动法则的，已经握住了力量的权杖。一个古老的作家曾这样讲。
第一章 赫尔墨斯哲学
"The lips of wisdom are closed, except to the ears of Understanding"
--The Kybalion.
智慧之唇紧闭，除了对那些可理解之耳。
——Kybalion
From old Egypt have come the fundamental esoteric and occult teachings which have so strongly influenced the philosophies of all races, nations and peoples, for several thousand years.
从古老的埃及传出来的这个奥秘教导的根基，几千年来强烈地影响着所有的种族，国家和民族。
Egypt, the home of the Pyramids and the Sphinx, was the birthplace of the Hidden Wisdom and Mystic Teachings.
埃及，这个金字塔和狮身人面像的故乡，是隐藏的智慧和奥秘教导的诞生地。
From her Secret Doctrine all nations have borrowed. India, Persia, Chaldea, Medea, China, Japan, Assyria, ancient Greece and Rome, and other ancient countries partook liberally at the feast of knowledge which the Hierophants and Masters of the Land of Isis so freely provided for those who came prepared to partake of the great store of Mystic and Occult Lore which the master minds of that ancient land had gathered together.
她的奥秘文本，所有的民族都得到了。印度，波斯，卡尔迪亚，美狄亚，中国，日本，亚述，古希腊和罗马，还有其它古老的国度自由开放地分享了这个知识的盛宴。
这是伊西斯（Isis）之地的导师和大师们无偿对那些到来者提供的。这些到来者是有备而来，分享了那些被古老之地的智者汇聚起来的，巨大奥秘知识的珍藏。
In ancient Egypt dwelt the great Adepts and Masters who have never been surpassed, and who seldom have been equaled, during the centuries that have taken their processional flight since the days of the Great Hermes. In Egypt was located the Great Lodge of Lodges of the Mystics.
在古老的埃及居住的伟大的行家们和大师们，自从伟大的赫尔墨斯时代之后，在这个行列中，他们从没有被超越，也很少有人能和他们相匹敌。在埃及座落着奥秘居所中的伟大之所。
At the doors of her Temples entered the Neophytes who afterward, as Hierophants, Adepts, and Masters, traveled to the four corners of the earth, carrying with them the precious knowledge which they were ready, anxious, and willing to pass on to those who were ready to receive the same. All students of the Occult recognize the debt that they owe to these venerable Masters of that ancient land.
在她的庙堂之门进入了新的跟随者（Neophytes），后来他们如同导师（Hierophants）、行家（Adepts）、大师（Masters），游历到地球的四极，携回珍贵的知识，他们甘愿、渴望、并且愿意把这些传递给同样准备接受的人。所有奥秘学的学生们理解那古老之地的可敬大师们的恩情。
But among these great Masters of Ancient Egypt there once dwelt one of whom Masters hailed as "The Master of Masters." This man, if "man" indeed he was, dwelt in Egypt in the earliest days.
但在这些古埃及的伟大大师中，曾居住着一位被大师们颂呼为大师中的大师的。这个人——如果是人的话，最早居住在埃及。
He was known as Hermes Trismegistus. He was the father of the Occult Wisdom; the founder of Astrology; the discoverer of Alchemy.
他被称为赫耳墨斯•特里斯墨吉斯忒斯（Hermes Trismegistus）。他是奥秘智慧之父；占星术的奠基人；炼金术的发明者。
The details of his life story are lost to history, owing to the lapse of the years, though several of the ancient countries disputed with each other in their claims to the honor of having furnished his birthplace--and this thousands of years ago.
随着岁月的流逝，他的生平故事的细节早在历史中消失了。尽管多个古老的国家在对他的出生地的荣誉上彼此争吵——就这也已经过去了几千年。
The date of his sojourn in Egypt, in that his last incarnation on this planet, is not now known,
他在埃及逗留的日子，到他最后在这个星球投生，已经不很清楚。
but it has been fixed at the early days of the oldest dynasties of Egypt--long before the days of Moses.
可以肯定的是，是在埃及最古老王朝的早期，远在摩西之前。
The best authorities regard him as a contemporary of Abraham, and some of the Jewish traditions go so far as to claim that Abraham acquired a portion of his mystic knowledge from Hermes himself.
一个权威材料认为他和亚伯拉罕同时，一些犹太传承者以至于宣称亚伯拉罕从赫尔墨斯那里直接获得了部分奥秘知识。
As the years rolled by after his passing from this plane of life (tradition recording that he lived three hundred years in the flesh), the Egyptians deified Hermes, and made him one of their gods, under the name of Thoth.
在他离开地球后的飞逝岁月里（流传的记录说他活了300年），埃及人把赫尔墨斯神化了，让他成为他们的一个神，名叫透特（Thoth）。
Years after, the people of Ancient Greece also made him one of their many gods--calling him "Hermes, the god of Wisdom."
再后面的岁月，古希腊人也把他作为他们众神之一——称他是赫尔墨斯，智慧之神。
The Egyptians revered his memory for many centuries-yes, tens of centuries-- calling him "the Scribe of the Gods," and bestowing upon him, distinctively, his ancient title, "Trismegistus," which means "the thrice-great"; "the great-great"; "the greatest-great"; etc. In all the ancient lands, the name of Hermes Trismegistus was revered, the name being synonymous with the "Fount of Wisdom."
许多世代中，埃及人尊敬对他的记忆——是的，几千年——称他为众神的记录者，并给予他与众不同的头衔：特利斯墨吉斯忒斯（Trismegistus），意思是三个的伟大；伟大之伟大；最伟大的伟大；等等。在所有古老的大地，赫尔墨斯的名字受到了尊敬，这个名字等同于智慧的源泉。
Even to this day, we use the term "hermetic" in the sense of "secret"; "sealed so that nothing can escape"; etc., and this by reason of the fact that the followers of Hermes always observed the principle of secrecy in their teachings.
直到今天，我们把赫尔墨斯的这个词用在表示奥秘这层意思上；封存，所以没有什么可能逃逸，等等，这个原因是赫尔墨斯的追随者，在他们的教导中总是遵守奥秘的守则。
They did not believe in "casting pearls before swine," but rather held to the teaching "milk for babes"; "meat for strong men,"
他们不主张把珍珠撒在猪面前，而是遵循着教诲，要喂婴儿牛奶，给强壮的人吃肉。
both of which maxims are familiar to readers of the Christian scriptures, but both of which had been used by the Egyptians for centuries before the Christian era.
这两个格言对基督教经文的读者是熟悉的，但这两个格言在基督教时期之前，已在埃及流行了许多的世纪。
And this policy of careful dissemination of the truth has always characterized the Hermetics, even unto the present day.
直到今天，小心地传播真理的策略总带着秘传的样式（Hermetics）。
The Hermetic Teachings are to be found in all lands, among all religions, but never identified with any particular country, nor with any particular religious sect.
赫尔墨斯教导在所有大陆，在所有的宗教中都能找到；从来不被看成是特别的领域，特别的宗教。
This because of the warning of the ancient teachers， against allowing the Secret Doctrine to become crystallized into a creed. The wisdom of this caution is apparent to all students of history.
这是因为古代教导者的警告，反对把奥秘知识转变为明确的信条。这个谨慎的智慧，明显是针对所有历史中的学生们的。
The ancient occultism of India and Persia degenerated, and was largely lost, owing to the fact that the teachers became priests, and so mixed theology with the philosophy, the result being that the occultism of India and Persia has been gradually lost amidst the mass of religious superstition, cults, creeds and "gods."
印度和波斯古代神秘学的退化，大量丧失，归之于教导者变为了牧师。
因此，印度神秘学和哲学混合，导致印度和波斯的神秘学逐渐丧失在宗教的迷信、祭礼、信条，和众神的聚会中。
So it was with Ancient Greece and Rome.
古希腊和古罗马也是如此。
So it was with the Hermetic Teachings of the Gnostics and Early Christians, which were lost at the time of Constantine, whose iron hand smothered philosophy with the blanket of theology, losing to the Christian Church that which was its very essence and spirit, and causing it to grope throughout several centuries before it found the way back to its ancient faith, the indications apparent to all careful observers in this Twentieth Century being that the Church is now struggling to get back to its ancient mystic teachings.
诺斯替和早期基督教的赫尔墨斯教导也是这样，在康斯坦丁时代失去了，他的铁腕用神学的毯子窒息了哲学，基督教教会丢失了真正的基础和精神，在找回古老信念之前经过了几个世纪的摸索，这是对所有二十世纪认真的观察者的明确的指示，教会现在正挣扎着去找回它的古老的奥秘教导。
But there were always a few faithful souls who kept alive the Flame, tending it carefully, and not allowing its light to become extinguished.
但总有一些忠实的灵魂，保持着火焰的燃烧，谨慎地维护着，不让这个火焰消失。
And thanks to these staunch hearts, and fearless minds, we have the truth still with us. But it is not found in books, to any great extent.
要感谢这些坚守的心灵，无畏的心理，真理依然和我们在一起。但这个教诲，不能在大众的书本中被找到。
It has been passed along from Master to Student; from Initiate to Hierophant; from lip to ear.
这已经由大师传给了学生，从启蒙者到导师，从唇到耳。
When it was written down at all, its meaning was veiled in terms of alchemy and astrology so that only those possessing the key could read it aright.
当这些被全部写出来，意义被炼金术和占星术词汇遮蔽了，以至于只有拥有钥匙的人可以正确解读。
This was made necessary in order to avoid the persecutions of the theologians of the Middle Ages, who fought the Secret Doctrine with fire and sword; stake, gibbet and cross.
为了避免中世纪的神学家们的迫害——这些神学家们用剑与火，火刑柱，绞刑架，十字架，对待奥秘知识——隐秘之路就成为必须。
Even to this day， there will be found but few reliable books on the Hermetic Philosophy, although there are countless references to it in many books written on various phases of Occultism.
甚至今天，也只能发现涉及赫尔墨斯哲学的很少书籍，虽然在许多书里有无法计数的，以不同形式涉及到的奥秘学。
And yet, the Hermetic Philosophy is the only Master Key which will open all the doors of the Occult Teachings!
然而，赫尔墨斯哲学是唯一可以打开所有奥秘教导之门的万能钥匙！
In the early days, there was a compilation of certain Basic Hermetic Doctrines, passed on from teacher to student, which was known as "THE KYBALION," the exact significance and meaning of the term having been lost for several centuries.
在早先的日子，已经汇集了的基本的赫尔墨斯知识，由教导者传递给学生，这就是所知的Kybalion（THE KYBALION），这个词汇的准确意义，已经失落了几个世纪。
This teaching, however, is known to many to whom it has descended, from mouth to ear, on and on throughout the centuries. Its precepts have never been written down, or printed, so far as we know.
这个教导，仍然是许多人所知的从唇到耳的传承，在众多世代中延续下来。以我们所知，这些格言从没有被写下来，或印出来。
It was merely a collection of maxims, axioms, and precepts, which were non-understandable to outsiders, but which were readily understood by students, after the axioms, maxims, and precepts had been explained and exemplified by the Hermetic Initiates to their Neophytes.
这只是一个外界无法理解的格言、公理和规则的汇集。经由赫尔墨斯的启蒙者向他们的新手解释和举例讲解这些格言、公理和规则后，学生们就可以理解。
These teachings really constituted the basic principles of "The Art of Hermetic Alchemy,"
which, contrary to the general belief, dealt in the mastery of Mental Forces, rather than Material Elements-the Transmutation of one kind of Mental Vibrations into others, instead of the changing of one kind of metal into another.
这些教导真正组成了赫尔墨斯炼金术艺术的基本法则，
和一般相信的正相反，掌控精神力量，胜过掌控物质要素——精神振动的蜕变胜过将一种金属变成另一种金属。
The legends of the "Philosopher's Stone" which would turn base metal into Gold, was an allegory relating to Hermetic Philosophy, readily understood by all students of true Hermeticism.
把贱金属变成黄金的哲人石传说，是和赫尔墨斯哲学相关的寓言，这很容易被所有真正的赫尔墨斯的学生理解。
In this little book, of which this is the First Lesson, we invite our students to examine into the Hermetic Teachings, as set forth in THE KYBALION, and as explained by ourselves, humble students of the Teachings, who, while bearing the title of Initiates, are still students at the feet of HERMES, the Master.
在这本小书中，这是第一课，我们邀请我们的学生到赫尔墨斯教导中去考查，直接进入Kybalion中，正如我们所说的，这个教导的谦卑的学生，当有了启蒙者的头衔，仍然是赫尔墨斯大师脚下的学生。
We herein give you many of the maxims, axioms and precepts of THE KYBALION, accompanied by explanations and illustrations which we deem likely to render the teachings more easily comprehended by the modern student, particularly as the original text is purposely veiled in obscure terms.
我们在这里给出许多Kybalion的格言、公理和规则，还有解释和说明，我们相信这些教导能够更容易被现代的学生理解，特别是当原本的材料被刻意使用的奥秘词语隐蔽住时。
The original maxims, axioms, and precepts of THE KYBALION are printed herein, in italics, the proper credit being given.
原本的Kybalion格言、法则和概念，用斜体字印出，给予应有的荣誉。
Our own work is printed in the regular way, in the body of the work.
我们的工作，这个工作的主体，是用标准体印刷。
We trust that the many students to whom we now offer this little work will derive as much benefit from the study of its pages as have the many who have gone on before, treading the same Path to Mastery throughout the centuries that have passed since the times of HERMES TRISMEGISTUS--the Master of Masters--the Great-Great.
我们相信许多学生，对于他们，我们提供的这个些微的工作，通过学习这些书页是会有益处的。
如同许多过去曾经接触到的，那些多少世纪以来的大师走上同样掌控的道路，那些由赫尔墨斯•特利斯墨吉斯忒斯的时代开始传承——大师中的大师——伟大中的伟大。
In the words of "THE KYBALION":
用这个词汇——Kybalion（THE KYBALION）。
"Where fall the footsteps of the Master, the ears of those
ready for his Teaching open wide."--The Kybalion.
大师的脚踪落在哪里，那些对教诲有准备的张开的耳朵。——Kybalion
"When the ears of the student are ready to hear, then cometh
the lips to fill them with Wisdom."--The Kybalion.
当学生的耳朵准备倾听，那么智慧之唇会来充满他们。——Kybalion
So that according to the Teachings, the passage of this book to those ready for the instruction will attract the attention of such as are prepared to receive the Teaching. And, likewise, when the pupil is ready to receive the truth, then will this little book come to him, or her.
这样，遵循教导，本书到达那些准备受教者的过程，将是吸引那些有准备接受教诲者们的注意。同样，当学生准备去接受真理，那么这本小书会到他和她那里。
Such is The Law. The Hermetic Principle of Cause and Effect, in its aspect of The Law of Attraction, will bring lips and ear tog

INTRODUCTION
导言
We take great pleasure in presenting to the attention of students and investigators of the Secret Doctrines this little work based upon the world-old Hermetic Teachings. There has been so little written upon this subject, not with standing the countless references to the Teachings in the many works upon occultism, that the many earnest searchers after the Arcane Truths will doubtless welcome the appearance of this present volume.
我们怀着极大的喜悦，把这一个建立在久远的赫尔墨斯教导（Hermetic Teachings）之上的些微工作，呈现到奥秘学的学习者和寻求者的注视下。对于这个主题，只有稀少的材料，无法相对难以计数的神秘学方面的教导材料。正是因为这样，许多诚心的探索者，在经过对奥秘真理的寻求后，无疑会欢迎这样一本书的出现。
The purpose of this work is not the enunciation of any special philosophy or doctrine, but rather is to give to the students a statement of the Truth that will serve to reconcile the many bits of occult knowledge that they may have acquired, but which are apparently opposed to each other and which often serve to discourage and disgust the beginner in the study.
这本书的目的，不是为了阐述任何特殊的哲学或者体系，而是为了给学习者们一个关于真理的综括，这些真理散落在你们获得的奥秘知识里，而其中有些存在着明显的自相矛盾，使得初学者们，容易产生混乱并且导致反感。
Our intent is not to erect a new Temple of Knowledge, but rather to place in the hands of the student a Master-Key with which he may open the many inner doors in the Temple of Mystery through the main portals he has already entered.
我们的目的不是建立一个新的知识殿堂，而是要把万能钥匙交到他们手，让他们通过他已经进入的主要入口，打开众多奥秘之殿的内门。
There is no portion of the occult teachings possessed by the world which have been so closely guarded as the fragments of the Hermetic Teachings which have come down to us over the tens of centuries which have elapsed since the lifetime of its great founder, Hermes Trismegistus, the "scribe of the gods," who dwelt in old Egypt in the days when the present race of men was in its infancy.
在这个世界拥有的奥秘教导中，没有哪个部分，象赫尔墨斯教导的片断，这样封闭地保守着。它们从几十个世纪前传递下来，自从它的伟大的奠基者赫尔墨斯-特利斯墨吉斯忒斯（Hermes Trismegistus）消失后，那位众神的记录员降生在古埃及时代，这次文明中的人类那时还在幼年期。
Contemporary with Abraham, and, if the legends be true, an instructor of that venerable sage, Hermes was, and is, the Great Central Sun of Occultism, whose rays have served to Illumine the countless teachings which have been promulgated since his time. All the fundamental and basic teachings embedded in the esoteric teachings of every race may be traced back to Hermes. Even the most ancient teachings of India undoubtedly have their roots in the original Hermetic Teachings.
与亚伯拉罕同时，或者，如果传说是真的，古老传说中的一个教导者，赫尔墨斯（Hermes）曾是，当然现在也是，奥秘主义的伟大核心太阳，它的光芒点亮了无法计数的的教导。那些教导，从他的时代起，就已经开始传播。镶嵌在每一个种族中的那些奥秘教导的根基，所有的都能追踪到赫尔墨斯。甚至连印度的最古老的教义，也无疑是植根在传统的赫尔墨斯教导中。
From the land of the Ganges many advanced occultists wandered to the land of Egypt, and sat at the feet of the Master. From him they obtained the Master-Key which explained and reconciled their divergent views, and thus the Secret Doctrine was firmly established.
从恒河的岸边，许多优秀的奥秘学者走入了埃及之地，坐在大师的脚下。从他那里，他们获得这个万能钥匙——可以解释并且调和他们有分别的观点。由此，奥秘学说被坚固地确立了。
From other lands also came the learned ones, all of whom regarded Hermes as the Master of Masters,
也有从其它地域来的学习者，他们都承认赫尔墨斯是大师中的大师。
and his influence was so great that in spite of the many wanderings from the path on the part of the centuries of teachers in these different lands,
他的影响如此巨大，尽管多个世纪以来，许多心理流荡在许多不同地域的教师们有局限的教导中。
there may still be found a certain basic resemblance and correspondence which underlies the many and often quite divergent theories entertained and taught by the occultists of these different lands today.
但在它们之中，仍然可以发现某些基本的相同和相应处。在许多和通常教导完全分歧的理论中，那些如今仍被这些不同区域的神秘学者思考和教导着。
The student of Comparative Religions will be able to perceive the influence of the Hermetic Teachings in every religion worthy of the name, now known to man, whether it be a dead religion or one in full vigor in our own times. There is always certain correspondence in spite of the contradictory features, and the Hermetic Teachings act as the Great Reconciler.
比较宗教的学习者，能够察觉每种宗教中赫尔墨斯教导的影响。这些名字，如今被人们所知晓的，在我们这个时代，无论是死的宗教或是那些充满活力的。尽管有些相对点，但总有某些相一致的，赫尔墨斯教导正是伟大的调和者。
The lifework of Hermes seems to have been in the direction of planting the great Seed-Truth which has grown and blossomed in so many strange forms, rather than to establish a school of philosophy which would dominate, the world's thought.
赫尔墨斯的毕生工作象是在播撒种子-真理，这些以多种奇怪的形式生长、开花，而不是去建立可以指导世界心理的一个哲学流派。
But, nevertheless, the original truths taught by him have been kept intact in their original purity by a few men each age, who, refusing great numbers of half-developed students and followers, followed the Hermetic custom and reserved their truth for the few who were ready to comprehend and master it. From lip to ear the truth has been handed down among the few.
但是，他教导的那些本源真理，还是被每个时代的一些人，完整地保持住它们原初的纯洁。这些人拒绝大量不成熟的学生和追随者，只是跟随赫尔墨斯的传承，保存这些真理给少数可以领会和掌控的。从唇到耳，这真理在少数人中传递着。
There have always been a few Initiates in each generation, in the various lands of the earth, who kept alive the sacred flame of the Hermetic Teachings, and such have always been willing to use their lamps to re-light the lesser lamps of the outside world, when the light of truth grew dim, and clouded by reason of neglect, and when the wicks became clogged with foreign matter.
每一代中，在地球的不同大陆，总有一些启蒙者，他们保持着赫尔墨斯教导的神圣火种的燃烧，也总是利用他们的光亮去点亮更暗的外在世界。
There were always a few to tend faithfully the altar of the Truth, upon which was kept alight the Perpetual Lamp of Wisdom.
当真理的光芒暗淡时，被轻视遮蔽时，当灯芯受到外在物质阻碍时，总有一些诚心照管真理之圣坛的，保守着永恒的智慧之灯的燃烧不息。
These men devoted their lives to the labor of love which the poet has so well stated in his lines:
这些人奉献他们的生命到爱的工作上，这首诗篇以这样的诗句开始：
"O, let not the flame die out! Cherished age after age in its dark cavern
--in its holy temples cherished. Fed by pure ministers of love
--let not the flame die out!"
噢，不要让火焰熄灭！在黑暗的洞穴中--它神圣的殿堂里，世世代代守护着它。用纯净的爱来服侍。不要让火焰熄灭！
These men have never sought popular approval, nor numbers of followers. T
这些人从不寻求大众的承认，也不希求追随者的人数。
hey are indifferent to these things, for they know how few there are in each generation who are ready for the truth, or who would recognize it if it were presented to them.
他们和这些不同，因为他们知道每个世代为这个真理准备的人是如此稀少，能认识呈现在他们面前的珍宝的人是如此稀少。
They reserve the "strong meat for men," while others furnish the "milk for babes." They reserve their pearls of wisdom for the few elect, who recognize their value and who wear them in their crowns, instead of casting them before the materialistic vulgar swine, who would trample them in the mud and mix them with their disgusting mental food.
当其他人只能吃婴儿乳汁时，他们贮藏着给成人吃的肉干。他们保存他们智慧的珍珠给少许被挑选者，被挑选者认识其价值，并且将其戴在头冠上的。而不是撒在追求物质的愚人面前，这些人会将其与他们可憎的精神食粮混在一起，在泥浆里践踏。
But still these men have never forgotten or overlooked the original teachings of Hermes, regarding the passing on of the words of truth to those ready to receive it, which teaching is stated in The Kybalion as follows:
"Where fall the footsteps of the Master, the ears of those ready for his Teaching open wide."
但这些人从不遗忘或者轻视这些赫尔墨斯的本源教导，对于传递真理的语言到那些准备接受的，在Kybalion中这样说，大师的脚踪落在哪里，那些对他的教诲有准备的耳朵大大张开。
And again: "When the ears of the student are ready to hear, then cometh the lips to fill them with wisdom."
还有：当学习者的耳朵准备好倾听，那么智慧的嘴唇会来充满它。
But their customary attitude has always been strictly in accordance with the other Hermetic aphorism, also in The Kybalion: "The lips of Wisdom are closed, except to the ears of Understanding."
但对那些他们习以为常的思考形态已经固化，则和其它赫尔墨斯格言一样，Kybalion说：智慧之唇紧闭，除了对可理解之耳。
There are those who have criticized this attitude of the Hermetists, and who have claimed that they did not manifest the proper spirit in their policy of seclusion and reticence.
有一些人批评这种赫尔墨斯者的态度，并且声称，在隐密和沉默的方针中，赫尔墨斯者们没有显化出特有的精神。
But a moment's glance back over the pages of history will show the wisdom of the Masters, who knew the folly of attempting to teach to the world that which it was neither ready or willing to receive.
但回顾一下：在历史之页上展示了大师们的智慧，他们知道试图教导这个世界的愚蠢，因为世人们还没有准备，也不愿意接受。
The Hermetists have never sought to be martyrs, and have, instead, sat silently aside with a pitying smile on their closed lips,
赫尔墨斯者们从不寻求成为烈士，而是默默地坐在一边，带着同情的微笑在他们紧闭的唇边，
while the "heathen raged noisily about them" in their customary amusement of putting to death and torture the honest but misguided enthusiasts who imagined that they could force upon a race of barbarians the truth capable of being understood only by the elect who had advanced along The Path.
当不信者们在他们身边对他们疯狂地叫嚣作为习以为常的消遣，折磨信仰者甚至使他们死去、消亡。
但是也有被误导的激进者，设想他们能够在野蛮种族上发力，让大众们有理解真实的能力，通过在这条道路上已有发展的拣选者去实现。
And the spirit of persecution has not as yet died out in the land. There are certain Hermetic Teachings, which, if publicly promulgated, would bring down upon the teachers a great cry of scorn and revilement from the multitude, who would again raise the cry of "Crucify! Crucify."
迫害的狂潮还没有从大地上死去。有一些赫尔墨斯教导，如果向公众传播，会召来群众对导师们的大声的嘲笑和诽谤，再一次出现钉死他！钉死他！的声浪。
In this little work we have endeavored to give you an idea of the fundamental teachings of The Kybalion, striving to give you the working Principles, leaving you to apply therm yourselves, rather than attempting to work out the teaching in detail.
在这个微薄的工作中，我们尽力给出Kybalion基本教导的概念，努力给予你们运作法则，把实践应用留给你们自己，而不是详细演绎教导。
If you are a true student, you will be able to work out and apply these Principles--if not, then you must develop yourself into one, for otherwise the Hermetic Teachings will be as "words, words, words" to you.
如果你是真正的学习者，你能够演绎和应用这些法则——如果不能，那么你必须发展你自己，和太一同在；否则，赫尔墨斯教导对你只是文字，文字，文字。
