Earth Prison Architecture
It's a 300,000 year old hunt, and the dark forces have created a six tier hunting enclosure for humanity.
The 6th level of the enclosure is the man-eating Kosa Mob, which the dark forces have aligned themselves with by drinking human blood. The global Kosa Mob must be eliminated before humanity can be free.
The 5th level of the enclosure is a spiritual prison, where the dark forces block human spirituality, preventing humans from seeing the world and utilizing true technology.
The 4th level of fences is the prison of material consciousness, if you think the world is material, you fall into the hands of the dark forces, and no matter how much you scheme, there is no escape.
The 3rd level of fences is the ice wall, blocking humans from contacting their extraterrestrial relatives.
Layer 2 is money, all of humanity is locked in the money prison by the dark forces and revolves around money day and night. Humanity does not need money.
Layer 1 fence is fear, all of humanity is locked in war and carnage by the dark forces. You must be brave and fight for peace.
第十五章 格言
"The possession of Knowledge, unless accompanied by a manifestation and expression in Action, is like the hoarding of precious metals-a vain and foolish thing.
Knowledge, like wealth, is intended for Use. The Law of Use is Universal, and he who violates it suffers by reason of his conflict with natural forces."
--The Kybalion.
如果不和行动的表达相伴随，知识的拥有，只是如同贵重金属的储存一样——一个徒然和愚蠢的事情。
知识，如同财物，要被使用。去使用的这个法则是普遍性的，并且那些违反的，要承受他们对抗自然力量的痛苦。
——Kybalion
The Hermetic Teachings, while always having been kept securely locked up in the minds of the fortunate possessors thereof, for reasons which we have already stated, were never intended to be merely stored away and secreted.
赫尔墨斯教导，总是被安全地闭锁在有缘的拥有者们的思想里，这样做的原因，我们已经讲过了，但从来都不只是为了远远地储存和严加保密。
The Law of Use is dwelt upon in the Teachings, as you may see by reference to the above quotation from The Kybalion, which states it forcibly.
去使用的这个法则，就在教导里，正如你能从上面的Kybalion引语中看到的那样，从这里面强有力地表达出来。
Knowledge without Use and Expression is a vain thing, bringing no good to its possessor, or to the race.
知识，不去利用和表达，是无益的东西，不会给它的拥有者或者种族带来好处。
Beware of Mental Miserliness, and express into Action that which you have learned. Study the Axioms and Aphorisms, but practice them also.
要小心精神的吝啬，要实践那些你已经学到的。研习这些格言和谚语，并且也要实践它们。
We give below some of the more important Hermetic Axioms, from The Kybalion, with a few comments added to each.
下面我们给出，出自Kybalion的赫尔墨斯格言中一些比较重要的，对每一个加了一点注解。
Make these your own, and practice and use them, for they are not really your own until you have Used them.
要让这些成为你自己的，并且去实践和贯彻它们，因为直到你去利用它们，否则它们还不真正是属于你的。
"To change your mood or mental state--change your vibration."
--The Kybalion.
去改变你的心态和心理状态——改变了你的振动。
——Kybalion
One may change his mental vibrations by an effort of Will, in the direction of deliberately fixing the Attention upon a more desirable state.
靠着意志的努力，在有意识地把注意固定到一个更适宜的状态这个方向上，一个人可以改变他的心理振动。
Will directs the Attention, and Attention changes the Vibration. Cultivate the Art of Attention, by means of the Will, and you have solved the secret of the Mastery of Moods and Mental States.
意志指引着注意，并且注意改变振动。依靠意志的方法，去培养注意的技巧，那样，你就解开了心态和心理状态掌控的奥秘。
"To destroy an undesirable rate of mental vibration,put into operation the principle of Polarity and concentrate upon the opposite pole to that which you desire to suppress. Kill out the undesirable by changing its polarity."
--The Kybalion.
去改变一个不良的心理振动速率，让极性法则运转，凝神在你要求抑制的相对极性上。靠着改变它的极性，消去不需要的。
——Kybalion
This is one of the most important of the Hermetic Formulas. It is based upon true scientific principles. We have shown you that a mental state and its opposite were merely the two poles of one thing, and that by Mental Transmutation the polarity might be reversed.
这是最重要的赫尔墨斯规则之一。它是建立在真实的科学法则之上的。我们已经向你展示了，一个心理状态以及和它相对的只是一个事物的两极，依靠心理的转化，极性能够被反转。
This Principle is known to modern psychologists, who apply it to the breaking up of undesirable habits by bidding their students concentrate upon the opposite quality.
这个法则，现代心理学家们已经知道了，他们利用这个法则来终止不良的习性，依靠指导他们的学生集中注意到相反的品质上面。
If you are possessed of Fear, do not waste time trying to "kill out" Fear, but instead cultivate the quality of Courage, and the Fear will disappear.
如果你是在恐惧中，不要浪费时间去尝试消去它。而是要，去培养勇敢的品质，恐惧就会消失。
Some writers have expressed this idea most forcibly by using the illustration of the dark room. You do not have to shovel out or sweep out the Darkness, but by merely opening the shutters and letting in the Light the Darkness has disappeared.
某些作家的作品靠着利用黑屋子的描写来强烈地表达这个观念。你不是去铲去，或者扫除黑暗。只是打开窗帘，让阳光进来，黑暗就消失了。
To kill out a Negative quality, concentrate upon the Positive Pole of that same quality, and the vibrations will gradually change from Negative to Positive, until finally you will become polarized on the Positive pole instead of the Negative.
去消除一个负面的品质，只要集中注意到同样品质的正面极性上，直到最终，你变得在正向极性上极化，而取代负向的。
The reverse is also true, as many have found out to their sorrow, when they have allowed themselves to vibrate too constantly on the Negative pole of things.
反过来也是真的，比如有些人允许他们在事物的负面极性上振动得太久，他们已经陷入到了他们的悲痛中。
By changing your polarity you may master your moods, change your mental states, remake your disposition, and build up character.
依靠改变你的极性，你能够控制你的心态，改变你的心理状态，重新安排你的控制，建立起人格品质。
Much of the Mental Mastery of the advanced Hermetics is due to this application of Polarity, which is one of the important aspects of Mental Transmutation.
优秀的赫尔墨斯者的许多心理掌控是由于这个极化的利用，这是精神转化的最重要的方面之一。
Remember the Hermetic Axiom (quoted previously), which says:
记住，这个赫尔墨斯格言是这样说的：
"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."
-The Kybalion.
思想（如同金属和元素）可以被转化：从一个状态到另一个状态；从一种程度到另一种程度；从一个条件到另一个条件；从一个极性到另一个极性；从一种振动到另一种振动。
——Kybalion
The mastery of Polarization is the mastery of the fundamental principles of Mental Transmutation or Mental Alchemy, for unless one acquires the art of changing his own polarity, he will be unable to affect his environment.
极化的掌控是精神转化或者精神炼金术的基本法则的掌控，因为除非一个人获得了他自己极性改变的技巧，否则他不能够去影响他的环境。
An understanding of this principle will enable one to change his own Polarity, as well as that of others, if he will but devote the time, care, study and practice necessary to master the art.
对于这个法则的理解，如果他希望，将赋予一个人改变它自己的极性，还有他人的极性，去奉献时间、关注、研习，以及实践，到控制技巧所需要的上面去。
The principle is true, but the results obtained depend upon the persistent patience and practice of the student.
这个法则是真的，但要获得结果，要靠学生的持久的忍耐和练习。
"Rhythm may be neutralized by an application of the Art of Polarization."
--The Kybalion.
节律能够依靠极性技巧的利用而被中和。
——Kybalion
As we have explained in previous chapters, the Hermetists hold that the Principle of Rhythm manifests on the Mental Plane as well as on the Physical Plane, and that the bewildering succession of moods, feelings, emotions, and other mental states, are due to the backward and forward swing of the mental pendulum, which carries us from one extreme of feeling to the other.
正如前面章节中所指出的，赫尔墨斯者们在精神层面的显化上把握着节律法则，如同在物理层面上一样，令人困惑的心态、感受、情绪，以及其它心理状态的兴替，是由于心理摆锤的前后摆动，把你从感受的一个极端带到另一个。
The Hermetists also teach that the Law of Neutralization enables one, to a great extent, to overcome the operation of Rhythm in consciousness.
赫尔墨斯者们也教导，中和法则能够使一个人，到达更大的范围，进而克服在意识上的节律的运作。
As we have explained, there is a Higher Plane of Consciousness, as well as the ordinary Lower Plane, and the Master by rising mentally to the Higher Plane causes the swing of the mental pendulum to manifest on the Lower Plane, and he, dwelling on his Higher Plane, escapes the consciousness of the swing backward.
正如我们已经解释的，在这里既有意识的较高层面，也有意识普通的较低层面，大师，依靠在精神上升到较高层面，导致精神摆锤的摆动显化在较低层面，而自己安居于较高层面，避开回摆的意识。
This is effected by polarizing on the Higher Self, and thus raising the mental vibrations of the Ego above those of the ordinary plane of consciousness.
这受到在更高的自我上极化的影响，因此提升自我的精神振动达到那些意识的普通层面之上。
It is akin to rising above a thing and allowing it to pass beneath you.
如同升到一个东西上面，让它从你下面通过一样。
The advanced Hermetist polarizes himself at the Positive Pole of his Being-the "I Am" pole rather than the pole of personality and by "refusing" and "denying" the operation of Rhythm, raises himself above its plane of consciousness, and standing firm in his Statement of Being he allows the pendulum to swing back on the Lower Plane without changing his Polarity.
优秀的赫尔墨斯者极化到自我到存在的正向极性上——全能者的极性，而不是靠着拒绝和否定节律的运作来极化到个人的极性。提升他自己到意识的层面之上，牢固地站立在他存在的状态里，他们允许摆锤在较低层面摆回，而不改变他的极性。
This is accomplished by all individuals who have attained any degree of self-mastery, whether they understand the law or not.
无论他们是否理解这个法则，达到的任何级别的自我掌控的所有人都能够完成这个过程。
Such persons simply "refuse" to allow themselves to be swung back by the pendulum of mood and emotion, and by steadfastly affirming the superiority they remain polarized on the Positive pole.
靠着坚定不移肯定他们在正向极性保持极化的优越性，这些人简单地拒绝容许他们自己被心态和情绪的摆锤带回。
The Master, of course, attains a far greater degree of proficiency, because he understands the law which he is overcoming by a higher law,
and by the use of his Will he attains a degree of Poise and Mental Steadfastness
almost impossible of belief on the part of those who allow themselves to be swung backward and forward by the mental pendulum of moods and feelings.
当然，大师达到了熟练的更高等级，因为他们理解这个法则，这样他通过更高法则的利用而达到超越，
并且靠着意志的利用，他达到了一个平衡的层面，以及思想的稳定，
这已经几乎不能够被那些允许自己，随着心态和感受的心理摆锤，前后摇摆带动的人们所相信。
Remember always, however, that you do not really destroy the Principle of Rhythm, for that is indestructible.
无论如何，总要记住，你不是真的摧毁节律法则，那是不能毁灭的。
You simply overcome one law by counter-balancing it with another and thus maintain an equilibrium.
你只是单纯地依靠另一个来平衡这个，而超越某个法则，这样保持住了平衡。
CHAPTER XI RHYTHM
第十一章 节律
"Everything flows out and in; everything has its tides;
all things rise and fall; the pendulum-swing manifests
in everything; the measure of the swing to the right,
is the measure of the swing to the left; rhythm
compensates"--The Kybalion.
一切事物都在流动，有出有进；一切事物都有它的潮汐；一切事物都升起又回落；钟摆现象发生在每一事物中；右摆的幅度就是左摆的幅度；节律互相补偿着。
——Kybalion
The great Fifth Hermetic Principle--the Principle of Rhythm-embodies the truth that in everything there is manifested a measured motion; a to-and-from movement; a flow and inflow; a swing forward and backward; a pendulum-like movement; a tide-like ebb and flow; a high-tide and a low- tide;
between the two-poles manifest on the physical, mental or spiritual planes.
The Principle of rhythm is closely connected with the Principle of Polarity described in the preceding chapter.
Rhythm manifests between the two poles established by the Principle of Polarity.
伟大帮赫尔墨斯的第五法则
——节律法则
——揭示的真理是，显化在物理、精神和灵魂的层面上，在两个极性之间，在每一个事物中，都显化一个可测量的运动、一个往复的运动、一个流入和流出、向前和向后的飘动、一个钟摆般的运动、一个潮汐般的涨落、一个大潮和一个小潮。
节律法则与前一章讲述的极性法则有紧密的关系。
节律通过极性法则在两个极性之间显化着。
This does not mean, however, that the pendulum of Rhythm swings to the extreme poles, for this rarely happens; in fact, it is difficult to establish the extreme polar opposites in the majority of cases. But the swing is ever "toward" first one pole and then the other.
无论如何，这不是意味着节律的摆锤摆动到极端点，这是极少发生的；事实上，在众多案例里，确定极端的端点是困难的。摆动总是从一个极性再到另一个极性。
There is always an action and reaction; an advance and a retreat; a rising and a sinking; manifested in all of the airs and phenomena of the Universe.
在宇宙的所有事物和现象中，总是有一个行动和一个回返的行动；一个前进和一个倒退；一个上升和一个下降。
Suns, worlds, men, animals, plants, minerals, forces, energy, mind and matter, yes, even Spirit, manifests this Principle.
恒星们，社会们，人类，动物，植物，矿物，力量，能量，思想，物质，还有，甚至灵魂，都显化着这个法则。
The Principle manifests in the creation and destruction of worlds; in the rise and fall of nations; in the life history of all things; and finally in the mental states of Man.
这个法则显化在社会的创立和毁灭之中；在民族的兴起和没落之中；在所有事物的生命历史中；最后在人类的精神状态之中。
Beginning with the manifestations of Spirit
--of THE ALL
--it will be noticed that there is ever the Outpouring and the Indrawing; the "Outbreathing and Inbreathing of Brahm," as the Brahmans word it.
由精神的显化开始
——全能者
——要注意这里的持续的流出和吸入；婆罗门说的梵天的呼与吸。
Universes are created; reach their extreme low point of materiality; and then begin in their upward swing.
Suns spring into being, and then their height of power being reached, the process of retrogression begins,
and after aeons they become dead masses of matter, awaiting another impulse which starts again their inner energies into activity and a new solar life cycle is begun.
宇宙的被创造，达到它们物质性的极端低点，然后开始它们向上的摆动。
恒星跃入存在，它们力量的高点一旦达到，衰退的过程就开始了，
在亿万年后，它们成为死寂的物质，等待另一次的推动把它们的内在能量带入活跃，并且开始一轮新的生命循环。
And thus it is with all the worlds; they are born, grow and die; only to be reborn. And thus it is with all the things of shape and form; they swing from action to reaction; from birth to death; from activity to inactivity--and then back again.
这个过程伴随着所有的世界；它们诞生，成长，死亡，只是要去再生。这是伴随着所有形状和形式的所有事物的；它们摆动，从行动到反应；从出生到死亡；从活跃到不活跃
——然后的再回转过来。
Thus it is with all living things; they are born, grow, and die--and then are reborn. So it is with all great movements, philosophies, creeds, fashions, governments, nations, and all else-birth, growth, maturity, decadence, death-and then new-birth. The swing of the pendulum is ever in evidence.
这也在所有生命事物中；他们出生，成长，和死亡——然后是再生。这也同样伴随着所有伟大的运动，哲学，信仰，时尚，政府，国家，和其它所有的——诞生，成长，成熟，衰落，死亡——然后是再生。摆锤的摇摆永远是显而易见的。
Night follows day; and day night. The pendulum swings from Summer to Winter, and then back again.
夜以继日，日以继夜。摆锤从夏摆到冬，然后又返回来。
The corpuscles, atoms, molecules, and all masses of matter, swing around the circle of their nature.
粒子，原子，分子，和所有的海量物质，围绕它们本性的循环摆动。
There is no such thing as absolute rest, or cessation from movement, and all movement partakes of rhythm.
The principle is of universal application.
在运动上没有绝对停滞或是静止的事物，所有的运动伴随着节律法则，这个法则是寰宇适宜的。
It may be applied to any question, or phenomena of any of the many planes of life.
它可以被用在生命的许多层面的任何问题和任何现象上。
It may be applied to all phases of human activity.
它可以被用到人类活动的任何阶段中。
There is always the Rhythmic swing from one pole to the other.
总是有个节律的摆动，从这个极性到另一个极性。
The Universal Pendulum is ever in motion. The Tides of Life flow in and out, according to Law.
宇宙的钟摆永远处在运动之中。生命的潮汐也遵循法则涨落。
The Principle of rhythm is well understood by modern science, and is considered a universal law as applied to material things.
节律法则已经很好地被现代科学所掌握，被认为是应用在物质事物上的宇宙法则。
But the Hermetists carry the principle much further, and know that its manifestations and influence extend to the mental activities of Man,
and that it accounts for the bewildering succession of moods, feelings and other annoying and perplexing changes that we notice in ourselves.
但是，赫尔墨斯者们把这个法则推到更广远的境地，知道它的显化和影响同样也是扩展到人类的精神活动上，
它揭示了那些我们注意到在我们之内的，混乱轮替的心态、感受，以及其它的烦恼和困惑的变化。
But the Hermetists by studying the operations of this Principle have learned to escape some of its activities by Transmutation.
但是，赫尔墨斯者们利用研习这个法则的运行，学会了通过转化去避开其中的一些影响。
The Hermetic Masters long since discovered that while the Principle of Rhythm was invariable, and ever in evidence in mental phenomena, still there were two planes of its manifestation so far as mental phenomena are concerned.
赫尔墨斯大师们久远以前就发现节律法则是永恒的，永远显化于精神现象，在涉及的精神现象上，它的表象有两个层面。
They discovered that there were two general planes of Consciousness, the Lower and the Higher, the understanding of which fact enabled them to rise to the higher plane
and thus escape the swing of the Rhythmic pendulum which manifested on the lower plane.
In other words, the swing of the pendulum occurred on the Unconscious Plane, and the Consciousness was not affected.
他们发现有两个普通的意识层面，较低的和较高的，对这个事实的理解，使他们能够提升到较高的，
这样得以避开在较低层面显化的节律摆动。
换一种说法，摆锤的摆动，发生在潜意识层面里，显意识层面不受影响。
This they call the Law of Neutralization.
这称为中立法则（Law of Neutralization）。
Its operations consist in the raising of the Ego above the vibrations of the Unconscious Plane of mental activity, so that the negative-swing of the pendulum is not manifested in consciousness, and therefore they are not affected.
它的运作由精神活动的潜意识层面的振动自我提升，钟摆的负向摆动，不显化在显意识上，他们就不受影响。
It is akin to rising above a thing and letting it pass beneath you.
这类似于你上升到超过某个事物，让它在你的下面通过。
The Hermetic Master, or advanced student, polarizes himself at the desired pole, and by a process akin to "refusing" to participate in the backward swing or,
赫尔墨斯大师，或者优秀的学生，在期望的极性极化他们自己，依靠类似”拒绝”的方法参与回摆，或者，
if you prefer, a "denial" of its influence over him, he stands firm in his polarized position, and allows the mental pendulum to swing back along the unconscious plane.
如果你愿意，去否定作用在他身上的影响。他坚定站在他极化的位置上，并且允许精神摆锤沿着潜意识的层面回摆。
All individuals who have attained any degree of self- mastery, accomplish this, more or less unknowingly, and by refusing to allow their moods and negative mental states to affect them, they apply the Law of Neutralization.
所有已经达到自我控制等级的人，都靠着拒绝让他们的心态和负面心理状态影响他们，或多或少无意识地这样做，他们在应用中立法则。
The Master, however, carries this to a much higher degree of proficiency, and by the use of his Will he attains a degree of Poise and Mental Firmness almost impossible of belief on the part of those who allow themselves to be swung backward and forward by the mental pendulum of moods and feelings.
可是大师，把这带入到一个更高的精熟程度，靠着他们的意志，他们达到的平衡和心理稳固的程度，那是随着心态和感受的心理摆锤摇来摇去的人们，几乎无法相信的。
The importance of this will be appreciated by any thinking person who realizes what creatures of moods, feelings and emotion the majority of people are, and how little mastery of themselves they manifest.
这里的重要性为每位思考者认同，他们认识到大部分人是心态、感受和情绪活动的傀儡，在他们的显化上，能够把握的是如此微小。
If you will stop and consider a moment, you will realize how much these swings of Rhythm have affected you in your life
如果你愿意停下来思考片刻，你会认识到在你的生命中，这些节律的摆动多大地影响了你
--how a period of Enthusiasm has been invariably followed by an opposite feeling and mood of Depression.
——一个高度狂热的阶段如何总是跟随着一个消沉的反面感受和负面心态。
Likewise, your moods and periods of Courage have been succeeded by equal moods of Fear.
同样，你的勇敢的阶段被相等的恐惧心态追随着。
In addition to the changing of the poles of one's own mental states by the operation of the art of Polarization, the phenomena of Mental Influence, in its manifold phases, shows us that the principle may be extended so as to embrace the phenomena of the influence of one mind over that of another, of which so much has been written and taught of late years.
依靠极化艺术的运作，一个人可以增加自己的精神状态的极性的改变。在精神许多阶段里的这个心理影响的现象，告诉我们，这个法则能够被扩展到包括作用于对其他精神影响，这个现象上去，对于这些，近来已经有很多作品和教导出现。
When it is understood that Mental Induction is possible, that is that mental states may be produced by "induction" from others,
then we can readily see how a certain rate of vibration, or polarization of a certain mental state, may be communicated to another person, and his polarity in that class of mental states thus changed.
当理解了精神感应是可能的，就是精神状态能够被来自他人的感应而产生变化，
那么我们能够容易看到，某种特定心理状态的振动速率或者极化，能够沟通到其他人，并且他在那类的心理状态的极性，这样就被改变了。
It is along this principle that the results of many of the "mental treatments" are obtained. For instance, a person is "blue," melancholy and full of fear.
沿着这个法则，可以获得许多心理态度的效果。例如，一个人是哀愁、忧伤、非常恐惧。
A mental scientist bringing his own mind up to the desired vibration by his trained will, and thus obtaining the desired polarization in his own case, then produces a similar mental state in the other by induction, the result being that the vibrations are raised and the person polarizes toward the Positive end of the scale instead toward the Negative, and his Fear and other negative emotions are transmuted to Courage and similar positive mental states.
精神科学家依靠意志的训练，把他们自身的心理增加到期望的振动，在他们自己的情景中获得期望上的转变，依靠感应，产生相同的心理状态在其他人身上，结果是振动的提升，病人的极化方向被修复朝向标度的正向一方，而不是朝向负向，他的害怕和其它负面情绪，被转变，达到勇敢以及同样的正向心理状态。
A little study will show you that these mental changes are nearly all along the line of Polarization, the change being one of degree rather than of kind.
一点小小的研究可以告诉你，这些精神改变只是沿着极性的的路线，这个改变只是在程度上，而非在类别间的。
A knowledge of the existence of this great Hermetic Principle will enable the student to better understand his own mental states, and those of other people.
认识这个赫尔墨斯伟大法则的存在，将使学生能够更好地理解他自己以及其他人的精神状态。
He will see that these states are all matters of degree, and seeing thus, he will be able to raise or lower the vibration at will
--to change his mental poles, and thus be Master of his mental states, instead of being their servant and slave.
他会看到这些状态都只是程度上的，有这样的看到，就是你将能在意志上提高或者降低振动——能够改变它的心理极性，而变为他的精神状态的主人，而非它们的仆人或者奴隶。
And by his knowledge he will be able to aid his fellows intelligently and by the appropriate methods change the polarity when the same is desirable.
靠着他的知识，他可以聪明地帮助他周围的人，依靠适宜的方法，当在适当的时候，改变极性。
We advise all students to familiarize themselves with this Principle of Polarity, for a correct understanding of the same will throw light on many difficult subjects.
我们建议所有的学生，要让自己熟悉这个极性法则，对极性法则的正确理解，将照亮到许多困难事物。
第十章 极性
"Everything is dual; everything has poles; everything
has its pair of opposites; like and unlike are the same;
opposites are identical in nature, but different in degree;
extremes meet; all truths are but half-truths; all paradoxes
may be reconciled."--The Kybalion.
所有事物都是双重的；所有事物都有两极；所有事物都有相互对立的两面；喜欢和不喜欢是一样的；对立的事物本质上是一模一样的，只是在程度上有所不同；极端的两面总是相连；所有的真理都只是一半正确的真理；所有看似矛盾的说法都可以调和。
——Kybalion
The great Fourth Hermetic Principle
--the Principle of Polarity embodies the truth that all manifested things have "two sides"; "two aspects"; "two poles"; a "pair of opposites," with manifold degrees between the two extremes.
The old paradoxes, which have ever perplexed the mind of men, are explained by an understanding of this Principle.
伟大的赫尔墨斯第四法则
——极性法则，揭示的真理是，所有显化的事物，都有两边；两个方面；两个极性；一个相对的对子，在两个极端之间有许多的等级。
这些古老的矛盾说法，历来困惑着人类的思想，这些可以通过对这个法则的理解得到解决。
Man has always recognized something akin to this Principle, and has endeavored to express it by such sayings, maxims and aphorisms as the following:
"Everything is and isn't, at the same time";
"all truths are but half-truths";
"every truth is half-false";
"there are two sides to everything"
--"there is a reverse side to every shield," etc., etc.
人总是发现有些事物和这个法则相类似，它们被下面这样的讲说、格言、警句，表示出来：
在同一时间，每一事物既是是也是不是。
所有的真理都只是部分真理。
每一个真理都是部分的谬误。
任何事物都有两个方面。
——每一个盾牌都有相反的面。等等，等等。
The Hermetic Teachings are to the effect that the difference between things seemingly diametrically opposed to each other is merely a matter of degree.
赫尔墨斯教导说，在事物之间的差异，表面上的彼此直接对立的效应，只是程度上的问题。
It teaches that "the pairs of opposites may be reconciled,"
and that "thesis and anti-thesis are identical in nature, but different in degree";
and that the "universal reconciliation of opposites" is effected by a recognition of this Principle of Polarity.
它这样教导，相对的两面能够被调和。
以及，正题和反题在本质上是同样的，只是程度上的不同。
还有，相对的宇宙调和是通过对极性法则的认识实现。
The teachers claim that illustrations of this Principle may be had on every hand, and from an examination into the real nature of anything.
教师们宣称，这个法则的证明是在每个人的手里，并且这个证明是来自对任何事物真实本质的查验。
They begin by showing that Spirit and Matter are but the two poles of the same thing, the intermediate planes being merely degrees of vibration.
他们开始先是去展示，精神和物质，是也只是同样事物的两极，中间层面们的存在只是振动程度的不同。
They show that THE ALL and The Many are the same, the difference being merely a matter of degree of Mental Manifestation.
Thus the LAW and Laws are the two opposite poles of one thing.
它们展示了全能者和万物是同样的，差异只存在于精神显化的程度上。
这样，唯一法则和法则们是一个事物的相对两极。
Likewise, PRINCIPLE and Principles. Infinite Mind and finite minds.
同样，法则和法则们也是；无限思想和有限思想也是。
Then passing on to the Physical Plane, they illustrate the Principle by showing that Heat and Cold are identical in nature, the differences being merely a matter of degrees.
那么去到物理层面，它们用热和冷在本质上是同样的，只是等级不同，来阐明这个法则。
The thermometer shows many degrees of temperature, the lowest pole being called "cold," and the highest "heat."
温度计显示了温度的许多等级，最低点被称为冷，最高点被称为热。
Between these two poles are many degrees of "heat" or "cold," call them either and you are equally correct.
在这相对的两极之间，是冷或者热的许多等级。
用哪一个去称呼你都可以是对的。
The higher of two degrees is always "warmer," while the lower is always "colder." There is no absolute standard-all is a matter of degree.
两个程度中较高的总是热乎，较低的总是凉爽。没有绝对的标准——都只是程度的问题。
There is no place on the thermometer where heat ceases and cold begins. It is all a matter of higher or lower vibrations.
在温度计上没有这样一个点，在这里热停止，而冷开始了。都只是较高或者较低的振动。
The very terms "high" and "low," which we are compelled to use, are but poles of the same thing-the terms are relative.
我们被迫使用的，特别词汇高和低，只是同样事物的极性——词汇是相对的。
So with "East and West"--travel around the world in an eastward direction, and you reach a point which is called west at your starting point, and you return from that westward point.
同样在东和西里也是一样——向着东方做环球旅行，你到达了一个从你开始点来说被称为西方之地，你从那个西方之地返回。
Travel far enough North, and you will find yourself traveling South, or vice versa.
向北去，如果够远，你发现你在朝南旅行，反过来也是一样。
Light and Darkness are poles of the same thing, with many degrees between them.
光明和黑暗是同样事物的两极，在它们之间有许多的等级。
The musical scale is the same--starting with "C" you move upward until you reach another "C" and so on, the differences between the two ends of the board being the same, with many degrees between the two extremes.
音乐的标度也是一样——从C开始，你向上到达另一个C，如此下去，键盘的两个端点之间有许多不同的琴键，都是一样的，在两个极端之间的不同程度。
The scale of color is the same-higher and lower vibrations being the only difference between high violet and low red. Large and Small are relative.
So are Noise and Quiet; Hard and Soft follow the rule. Likewise Sharp and Dull.
颜色的标度是同样的——较高和较低的振动，只是最高紫色和最低红色之间的不同程度。大和小是关联着的。
还有，杂乱和宁静；坚硬和柔软，遵循着法则。同样的，锋利和粗顿。
Positive and Negative are two poles of the same thing, with countless degrees between them.
正向和负向，是同样事物的两极，在它们之间有无以计数的等级。
Good and Bad are not absolute--we call one end of the scale Good and the other Bad, or one end Good and the other Evil, according to the use of the terms.
好和坏不是绝对的——我们称标度的一端为好，另一端为坏，或者一端为良善，另一端为邪恶，按照词汇的使用。
A thing is "less good" than the thing higher in the scale; but that "less good" thing, in turn, is "more good" than the thing next below it--and so on, the "more or less" being regulated by the position on the scale.
一个事物较好，那么在标度上比另一个事情有较高的位置；但是相对于较好的事物，更好的是在它的上方——如此下去，多和少被标度上的位置调节。
And so it is on the Mental Plane. "Love and. Hate" are generally regarded as being things diametrically opposed to each other; entirely different; unreconcilable.
在精神层面上也是一样。爱和恨是一般认为彼此直接对立的事物，完全不同，无法调和。
But we apply the Principle of Polarity; we find that there is no such thing as Absolute Love or Absolute Hate, as distinguished from each other.
当我们运用极性法则，我们会发现当辨别彼此两者时，并没有绝对的爱或者绝对的恨这样的事情。这两个只是用于相同事物的相对两极的词汇。
The two are merely terms applied to the two poles of the same thing. Beginning at any point of the scale we find "more love," or "less hate,"
在标度的任何一点开始，当我们沿着标度上升，我们发现较多的爱或者较少的恨；
as we ascend the scale; and "more hate" or "less love" as we descend this being true no matter from what point, high or low, we may start.
当我们沿着标度下降，我们发现较多的恨或者较少的爱，无论从哪一点开始这都是真的，高或者低，我们可以试试。
There are degrees of Love and Hate, and there is a middle point where "Like and Dislike" become so faint that it is difficult to distinguish between them. Courage and Fear come under the same rule.
这是爱和恨的等级，有一个中心点，在这里喜欢和不喜欢变得过于晦暗，难于在两者之间进行区分。勇敢和害怕也是一样。
The Pairs of Opposites exist everywhere. Where you find one thing you find its opposite-the two poles.
相对的对子存在在所有的地方。在哪里你发现一个事物，你就会发现它的相对面——两个极性。
And it is this fact that enables the Hermetist to transmute one mental state into another, along the lines of Polarization.
就是这个事实，使得赫尔墨斯者，沿着极性路线，转化一个精神状态达到另一个精神状态。
Things belonging to different classes cannot be transmuted into each other, but things of the same class may be changed, that is, may have their polarity changed.
属于不同类的事物不能互相转化，但同一类的事物能够被改变，也就是能够进行它们极性的改变。
Thus Love never becomes East or West, or Red or Violet
--but it may and often does turn into Hate and likewise Hate may be transformed into Love, by changing its polarity.
这样，爱从来不会变成东或西，或者红和紫
——但它可以，并且经常被转化为恨，靠着改变极性，
Courage may be transmuted into Fear, and the reverse. Hard things may be rendered Soft. Dull things become Sharp. Hot things become Cold.
同样的，恨可以被转化为爱。勇敢可以被转化为恐惧，反过来也是一样。坚硬的事情可以变得柔软。粗顿可以变得锋利。热可以变为冷。
And so on, the transmutation always being between things of the same kind of different degrees.
如此等等，转化总是存在在不同程度的同类事物之间。
Take the case of a Fearful man. By raising his mental vibrations along the line of Fear- Courage, he can be filled with the highest degree of Courage and Fearlessness.
以恐惧的人为例。通过沿着恐惧和勇敢的路线提升精神振动，他能够被最高程度的勇敢充满，而无所畏惧。
And, likewise, the Slothful man may change himself into an Active, Energetic individual simply by polarizing along the lines of the desired quality.
同样，懒惰的人能够变成活跃、精力充沛的人，只要简单地沿着所渴望的品质的路线极化就是。
The student who is familiar with the processes by which the various schools of Mental Science, etc., produce changes in the mental states of those following their teachings, may not readily understand the principle underlying many of these changes.
对于那些通过不同的精神科学的学院而熟悉这个进程的学生，由于遵循他们的教导而导致的精神状态的改变，这些学生不能马上理解那些改变之下的这个法则。
When, however, the Principle of Polarity is once grasped, and it is seen that the mental changes are occasioned by a change of polarity
－-a sliding along the same scale-the hatter is readily understood.
The change is not in the nature of a transmutation of one thing into another thing entirely different-but is merely a change of degree in the same things, a vastly important difference.
然而，当领会了极性法则，就能够观察到依靠极性的改变，精神变化发生了
——沿着同样标度的滑动
——隐秘被理解了。
改变不是一个事物转化到另一个完全不同性质的事物
——只是在同样事物里的程度的改变，一个非常显著的不同。
For instance, borrowing an analogy from the Physical Plane, it is impossible to change Heat into Sharpness, Loudness, Highness, etc., but Heat may readily be transmuted into Cold, simply by lowering the vibrations.
举个例子，是在物理层面的一个类比，不可能改变热成为锋利，喧闹，高度，等等，但是热能够推移进入冷，只是简单地降低振动。
In the same way Hate and Love are mutually transmutable; so are Fear and Courage. But Fear cannot be transformed into Love, nor can Courage be transmuted into Hate. The mental states belong to innumerable classes, each class of which has its opposite poles, along which transmutation is possible.
用同样的方法，爱和恨可以互相转化。勇敢和恐惧也是一样。但是，恐惧不能被转化成爱，勇敢也不能被转化成恨。精神状态归属于无数类，每类有它相对的极性，沿着相对极性之间的转化是可能的。
The student will readily recognize that in the mental states, as well as in the phenomena of the Physical Plane, the two poles may be classified as Positive and Negative, respectively.
学生要认识到，在精神状态上，正如同在物理层面的现象上，两个极性可以分别划分为正极和负极。
Thus Love is Positive to Hate; Courage to Fear; Activity to Non-Activity, etc., etc.
And it will also be noticed that even to those unfamiliar with the Principle of Vibration, the Positive pole seems to be of a higher degree than the Negative, and readily dominates it. The tendency of Nature is in the direction of the dominant activity of the Positive pole.
这样，爱相对于恨可以是正极；勇敢相对于害怕可以是正极；活跃相对于不活跃可以是正极，等等，等等。
也要注意到，就是对那些不熟悉振动法则的，正极相对负向看起来也是一个较高的程度，愿意去支配它。自然的趋势，是正极处于支配活动的方向上。
Absolute Truth has been defined as "Things as the mind of God knows them," while Relative Truth is "Things as the highest reason of Man understands them."
绝对性的真理被定义为“那些只有上帝的思想知晓的事情”，而相对性的真理是“那些人类最高理性可以理解的事情”。
And so while to THE ALL the Universe must be unreal and illusionary, a mere dream or result of meditation,
因此，对于全能者，宇宙一定是不真实和虚幻的，只是一个梦或冥想的结果
--nevertheless, to the finite minds forming a part of that Universe, and viewing it through mortal faculties, the Universe is very real indeed, and must be so considered.
——然而，对于构成的宇宙的一部分，并且通过凡人的天赋去观看的有限的思想，这个宇宙是非常真实和确定的。
In recognizing the Absolute view, we must not make the mistake of ignoring or denying the facts and phenomena of the Universe as they present themselves to our mortal faculties--we are not THE ALL, remember.
在承认绝对论的观点时，我们不要犯了这样的错误，即忽略或否认宇宙的事实和现象，正如它们向我们普通人所呈现的那样——记住，我们不是全能者。
To take familiar illustrations, we all recognize the fact that matter "exists" to our senses--we will fare badly if we do not.
举大家熟知的实例，我们都承认物质是相对于我们的感觉而存在的事实，如果我们不这样，我们的遭遇就不好。
And yet, even our finite minds understand the scientific dictum that there is no such thing as Matter from a scientific point of view--that which we call Matter is held to be merely an aggregation of atoms, which atoms themselves are merely a grouping of units of force, called electrons or "ions," vibrating and in constant circular motion.
然而，即使我们有限的心理能够领会科学的宣言——从科学的观点看，没有像物质这样的东西——我们所说的物质只是作为原子的集合体而维持着，原子自身也只是能量单位的组群，称为电子或离子，它们振动着，并处于永恒的循环运动中。
We kick a stone and we feel the impact--it seems to be real, notwithstanding that we know it to be merely what we have stated above.
我们踢一块石头，然后我们感觉到碰撞——它似乎是真实的，尽管我们知道它只是像我们以上所说的那样。
But remember that our foot, which feels the impact by means of our brains, is likewise Matter, so constituted of electrons, and for that matter so are our brains. And, at the best, if it were not by reason of our Mind, we would not know the foot or stone at all.
但记住，借助大脑而感觉到碰撞的我们的脚，也是物质，因此也由电子组成。最主要的是，如果不是由于我们的大脑，我们根本不会认识到脚或石头。
Then again, the ideal of the artist or sculptor, which he is endeavoring to reproduce in stone or on canvas, seems very real to him.
再比如说，艺术家或雕塑家想方设法在石头或帆布上再现的理想，对他来说是非常真实的。
So do the characters in the mind of the author; or dramatist, which he seeks to express so that others may recognize them.
作家或戏剧家心里的人物形象也是如此，他试图表达出来，以使其他人认识它们。
And if this be true in the case of our finite minds, what must be the degree of Reality in the Mental Images created in the Mind of the Infinite?
如果就我们的有限的思想来说，这是真实的，那么什么才会是在无限思想里，精神图像创化的真实等级哪？
Oh, friends, to mortals this Universe of Mentality is very real indeed--it is the only one we can ever know, though we rise from plane to plane, higher and higher in it.
啊，朋友们，对于凡人们，这个精神宇宙是非常真实的——它是我们永远能够知道的唯一一点，尽管我们在它之内，从一个层面上升到又一个层面，越来越高。
To know it otherwise, but actual experience, we must be THE ALL itself. It is true that the higher we rise in the scale--the nearer to "the mind of the Father" we reach--the more apparent becomes the illusory nature of finite things, but not until THE ALL finally withdraws us into itself does the vision actually vanish.
为了通过确切体验来认识它的其他方面，我们必须是全能者本身。我们越是上升到更高的层面——越是接近造物主的思想，有限事物的虚幻特征就越明显，这是真的。但只有到全能者撤离我们而回到它自身，虚幻才会消失。
So, we need not dwell upon the feature of illusion. Rather let us, recognizing the real nature of the Universe, seek to understand its mental laws, and endeavor to use them to the best effect in our upward progress through life, as we travel from plane to plane of being. The Laws of the Universe are none the less "Iron Laws" because of the mental nature.
因此，我们不必老想着虚幻的特征。不如让我们来认识宇宙真实的特性，设法领会它的精神法则，在生命的向上进步中努力运用它们达到最好的效果，以便从一种生存层级迈向另一层级。宇宙法则不会因为其精神特性而不是铁则。
All, except THE ALL, are bound by them. What is IN THE INFINITE MIND OF THE ALL is REAL in a degree second only to that Reality itself which is vested in the nature of THE ALL.
除了全能者之外，一切都受其制约。在全能者无限思想中是真实的一切，在层级上仅次于全能者本质所授予的真实本身。 而那个真实性属于全能者的性质。
So, do not feel insecure or afraid--we are all HELD FIRMLY IN THE INFINITE MIND OF THE ALL, and there is naught to hurt us or for us to fear. There is no Power outside of THE ALL to affect us. So we may rest calm and secure.
所以，不要感觉不安或恐惧——我们所有人都牢牢根植于全能者的无限思想中，没有什么伤害我们或使我们害怕的。没有什么外在于全能者而影响我们。因此，我们可以平静和安全地生存。
There is a world of comfort and security in this realization when once attained. Then "calm and peaceful do we sleep, rocked in the Cradle of the Deep"--resting safely on the bosom of the Ocean of Infinite Mind, which is THE ALL.
In THE ALL, indeed, do "we live and move and have our being."
一旦明白这一点，我们就会有一个舒适和安泰的世界。然后，我们平静而安详地入睡，在深深的摇篮里轻轻摇摆。在无限思想的海洋怀抱中安然歇息，它就是全能者。
真的，在全能者中，我们生活、进步，并存在。
Matter is none the less Matter to us, while we dwell on the plane of Matter, although we know it to be merely an aggregation of "electrons," or particles of Force, vibrating rapidly and gyrating around each other in the formations of atoms; the atoms in turn vibrating and gyrating, forming molecules, which latter in turn form larger masses of Matter.
当我们停留在物质的层面上时，物质永远是物质，尽管我们知道，它只是电子的集合体或能量微粒，它们高速振动，并以原子的形态相互围绕着旋转。这些原子依次振动和旋转，从而形成分子，随后形成更大的物质团。
Nor does Matter become less Matter, when we follow the inquiry still further,
当我们顺着这个探索下去，物质必定永远成为物质。
and learn from the Hermetic Teachings, that the "Force" of which the electrons are but units is merely a manifestation of the Mind of THE ALL, and like all else in the Universe is purely Mental in its nature.
更进一步地，我们从赫尔墨斯神秘学说中学到，这些能量微粒只是全能者思想的显化，就像宇宙中的其他物质一样，在本质上纯粹是精神的。
While on the Plane of matter, we must recognize its phenomena-- we may control Matter (as all Masters of higher or lesser degree do), but we do so by applying the higher forces.
在物质的层面上，我们要认识到它的现象
——我们可以控制物质（如级别或高或低的大师们所做的一样），但我们要这么做，必须运用更高的力量。
We commit a folly when we attempt to deny the existence of Matter in the relative aspect.
当我们在相对层面上否定物质的存在时，我们就犯了愚蠢的错误。
We may deny its mastery over us--and rightly so--but we should not attempt to ignore it in its relative aspect, at least so long as we dwell upon its plane.
我们可以否认它控制着我们——恰恰如此——，我们不应该在它的相对面上试图忽略它。
Nor do the Laws of Nature become less constant or effective, when we know them, likewise, to be merely mental creations. They are in full effect on the various planes. We overcome the lower laws, by applying still higher ones--and in this way only.
自然法则永远如一或生效，当我们了解它们时，同样的，它们只是精神的创造物。它们在各个层面上完全有效。我们通过运用更高级的法则来控制更低级的法则——这是唯一的方式。
But we cannot escape Law or rise above it entirely. Nothing but THE ALL can escape Law--and that because THE ALL is LAW itself, from which all Laws emerge.
我们不能逃避法则或完全超越它。除了全能者，没有什么可以逃避法则——因为全能者是法则自身，所有的法则都从它那里产生。
The most advanced Masters may acquire the powers usually attributed to the gods of men; and there are countless ranks of being, in the great hierarchy of life, whose being and power transcends even that of the highest Masters among men to a degree unthinkable by mortals, but even the highest Master, and the highest Being, must bow to the Law, and be as Nothing in the eye of THE ALL.
最高超的大师可以获得通常属于人类之神的力量；宇宙有无数的存在等级，在占统治层级的生命中，其性质和能量甚至超过人类中最优秀的大师而达到常人难以想象的程度，但是，即使最高级的大师和最高级的生命，也必须服从于法则，而且在全能者的眼里，他们什么也不是。
So that if even these highest Beings, whose powers exceed even those attributed by men to their gods--if even these are bound by and are subservient to Law, then imagine the presumption of mortal man, of our race and grade, when he dares to consider the Laws of Nature as "unreal!" visionary and illusory, because he happens to be able to grasp the truth that the Laws are Mental in nature, and simply Mental Creations of THE ALL.
因此，即使这些最高级的生命，其能量超过那些属于人类并成为他们的神——即使这些生命也受限和屈从于法则，那么，设想一下普通人和我们的同类的自以为是，他竟敢于把自然法则视为不真实的、虚幻的、不实际的，因为他碰巧能够会法则在本质上是精神的，仅仅是全能者的精神产物的事实。
Those Laws which THE ALL intends to be governing Laws are not to be defied or argued away. So long as the Universe endures, will they endure
--for the Universe exists by virtue of these Laws which form its framework and which hold it together.
那些全能者有意使之成为统治的法则不容抵制或辩驳。只要宇宙继续存在，它们就继续存在
——因为宇宙的存在要靠这些法则构成它的框架，并把它维系起来。
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
