The 6th level of the enclosure is the cannibalistic Kosa Mob, dark forces aligned by drinking human blood. The global Kosa Mob must be eliminated before mankind can be free.
Hunting Techniques of the 6th Fence Level - KM & AdrenOChrome:
B- Alien dark forces have been helping Earth dark forces
1- Recruiting evil forces to exterminate humanity with black witches
4- Developing puppets with adrenaline red to control the power of nations

Humanity's response:
Seek and ally with the alien forces of light and learn from their wisdom.
Listen to high-frequency music and visit the forest often every day.
Eliminate every Adrenaline Red consumer and industry member.
Eliminate every head of state, international corporation and national organization that traffics and abuses children.
Bomb every child trafficking DUMBS, transportation devices and spaceships.

But the idea intended seems to be that of the employment of the Divine Attention. "Attention" is a word derived from the Latin root, meaning "to reach out; to stretch out," and so the act of Attention is really a mental "reaching out; extension" of mental energy, so that the underlying idea is readily understood when we examine into the real meaning of "Attention."
但这个概念似乎倾向于对神圣的注意的利用。“注意”一词来自拉丁词根，本意是“伸出”（to reach out;to stretch out）。所以注意这个行动实际上是心智的“伸出”，或者心智能量的延伸出来。
这样，当我们查验了“注意”的真正意思，就容易理解它的内在观念了。

The Hermetic Teachings regarding the process of Evolution are that, THE ALL, having meditated upon the beginning of the Creation
--having thus established the material foundations of the Universe
--having thought it into existence
--then gradually awakens or rouses from its Meditation and in so doing starts into manifestation the process of Evolution, on the material mental and spiritual planes, successively and in order.
关于演化进程的赫尔墨斯增是这样的：
全能者，已经冥想着关于创造物的开始
——就这样建立了宇宙的物质基础
——已经构想着它存在
——然后从它的冥想中逐渐苏醒或者觉醒，就这样开始了演化的呈现过程，在物质、心理和精神层面上，连续而有目的地进行。

Thus the upward movement begins--and all begins to move Spiritward. Matter becomes less gross; the Units spring into being; the combinations begin to form; Life appears and manifests in higher and higher forms; and Mind becomes more and more in evidence--the vibrations constantly becoming higher.
这样，向上的运动开始——一切都开始朝着精神化的方向运动。物质变得不那么粗陋；各个单元涌现而存在；相互组合开始形成；生命出现了，并在越来越高的形态上显化；思想明显越来越多——振动持续地变得更高。

In short, the entire process of Evolution, in all of its phases, begins, and proceeds according to the established "Laws of the Indrawing" process.
简言之，整个演化的过程，在它的所有阶段开始，然后按照吸入法则的建立过程继续着。

All of this occupies aeons upon aeons of Man's time, each aeon containing countless millions of years, but yet the Illumined inform us that the entire creation, including Involution and Evolution, of an Universe, is but "as the twinkle of the eye" to THE ALL.
所有这些始终占据着一艾昂（Aeon）又一艾昂的人类时间，每艾昂包含着无数个百万年的时间，然而先觉者（光明天使）如是说，整个宇宙的创造过程，包括进化和演化，对于全能者来说，只不过是一眨眼的时间。

At the end of countless cycles of aeons of time, THE ALL withdraws its Attention--its Contemplation and Meditation--of the Universe, for the Great Work is finished--and All is withdrawn into THE ALL from which it emerged. But Mystery of Mysteries--the Spirit of each soul is not annihilated, but is infinitely expanded--the Created and the Creator are merged. Such is the report of the Illumined!
在一艾昂又一艾昂时间的无数周期的最终，全能者抽回它对宇宙的注意——它的注视和冥想，因为伟大的工作已经完成——然后一切都从它所出现的状态退回到全能者之中。但是种种的神秘——每一个灵魂的精髓都不会被彻底毁灭，不过可以无限地被扩散——被造物和造物主融为一体。先觉者（光明天使）如是说！

The above illustration of the "meditation," and subsequent "awakening from meditation," of THE ALL, is of course but an attempt of the teachers to describe the Infinite process by a finite example.
And, yet: "As Below, so Above." The difference is merely in degree.
以上关于全能者冥想和随后从冥想中苏醒的解说，当然只是老师借助一个明确的例子来描述无限过程的一个尝试。
然而支流怎样，源头就怎样。不同只在于程度上。

And just as THE ALL arouses itself from the meditation upon the Universe, so does Man (in time) cease from manifesting upon the Material Plane, and withdraws himself more and more into the Indwelling Spirit, which is indeed "The Divine Ego."
正如全能者自己从对宇宙的冥想中苏醒，人也停止在物质层面上显现自身，而越来越多地退回到内在的精神中，这就是真正的神圣自我。

There is one more matter of which we desire to speak in this lesson, and that comes very near to an invasion of the Metaphysical field of speculation, although our purpose is merely to show the futility of such speculation.
在这一节课中，还有一个我们希望说明的问题，它接近甚至侵入了形而上学思索的领域，尽管我们的目的只是表明这样的思索毫无意义。

We allude to the question which inevitably comes to the mind of all thinkers who have ventured to seek the Truth.
我们间接提及这个问题，因为它不可避免地出现在所有冒险寻求真理的思想者的思想里。

The question is: "WHY does THE ALL create Universes"
这个问题是：为什么全能者创造宇宙？

The question may be asked in different forms, but the above is the gist of the inquiry.
或许这个问题被以不同的形式问到，但以上就是各种询问的要旨。

Men have striven hard to answer this question, but still there is no answer worthy of the name. Some have imagined that THE ALL had something to gain by it, but this is absurd, for what could THE ALL gain that it did not already possess?
许多人殚精竭虑地想回答这个问题，但仍然没有什么有价值的解答。一些人猜想全能者通过创造宇宙来获得一些东西，但这非常荒唐，因为全能者怎么获得它事先所没有的东西呢？

Others have sought the answer in the idea that THE ALL "wished something to love" and others that it created for pleasure, or amusement;
or because it "was lonely" or to manifest its power;
--all puerile explanations and ideas, belonging to the childish period of thought.
其他人在全能者需要一些事物来爱的观念中寻求答案；还有其他人说，它是为了高兴、为了娱乐，因为它孤独或为了显现它的力量而创造它。
――所有这些幼稚的解释和观念，都属于儿童期的思想。

Others have sought to explain the mystery by assuming that THE ALL found itself "compelled" to create, by reason of its own "internal nature"--its "creative instinct."
其他人已通过假想全能者发现自己由于自身内在本质——它的创造本能——而被迫创造宇宙来寻求对这个奥秘的解释。

This idea is in advance of the others, but its weak point lies in the idea of THE ALL being "compelled" by anything, internal or external. If its "internal nature," or "creative instinct," compelled it to do anything, then the "internal nature" or "creative instinct" would be the Absolute, instead of THE ALL, and so accordingly that part of the proposition falls.
这个观念领先于其他人，但是它的弱点在于全能者被某些内在或外在的事物所逼迫。如果它的内在本质或创造本能逼迫它做一些事情，那么这个内在本质或创造本能就是绝对的主宰，而不是全能者，因此，这个主张就不成立。

And, yet, THE ALL does create and manifest, and seems to find some kind of satisfaction in so doing. And it is difficult to escape the conclusion that in some infinite degree it must have what would correspond to an "inner nature," or "creative instinct," in man, with correspondingly infinite Desire and Will.
然而，全能者确实创造和显现，似乎通过这么做来找到某种满足。而且，很难避开这样的结论，即在某种无限的程度上，它一定与人类的一种内在本质或创造本能相一致，具有相应的无限渴望和意志。

It could not act unless it Willed to Act; and it would not Will to Act, unless it Desired to Act and it would not Desire to Act unless it obtained some Satisfaction thereby.
它不能行动，除非它愿意行动；同样，它不愿行动，除非它渴望行动；它也不渴望行动，除非它因此而获得某种满足。

And all of these things would belong to an "Inner Nature," and might be postulated as existing according to the Law of Correspondence.
所有这些情形都属于一种内在本质，按照一致法则，它们有可能被视为一种理所当然的存在。

But, still, we prefer to think of THE ALL as acting entirely FREE from any influence, internal as well as external. That is the problem which lies at the root of difficulty--and the difficulty that lies at the root of the problem.
但，我们依然宁愿相信全能者是完全自由运行的，而不是受到各种内在或外在因素的影响。这是根本的难题——而困难就在于问题的根本。

Strictly speaking, there cannot be said to be any "Reason" whatsoever for THE ALL to act, for a "reason" implies a "cause," and THE ALL is above Cause and Effect, except when it Wills to become a Cause, at which time the Principle is set into motion.
严格来讲，不能说有任何理由使全能者运行，因为一个理由隐含着一个原因。而全能者超越因与果，除去当它愿意成为一个原因，此时有关法则开始运行。

So, you see, the matter is Unthinkable, just as THE ALL is Unknowable.
Just as we say THE ALL merely "IS"
--so we are compelled to say that "THE ALL ACTS BECAUSE IT ACTS."
At the last, THE ALL is All Reason in Itself; All Law in Itself; All Action in Itself
因此，你明白，这个问题不可想象，就像全能者不可知一样。
正如我们已经说的，全能者只是存在
——所以我们不得不说全能者运行因为它运行。
最终，全能者自身是一切理由，是一切法则，是一切运行

--and it may be said, truthfully, that THE ALL is Its Own Reason; its own Law; its own Act--or still further, that THE ALL; Its Reason; Its Act; is Law; are ONE, all being names for the same thing.
——也可以说，真的，全能者是它自己的理由，它自己的法则，它自己的运行——或者，更进一步说全能者，它的理由，它的法则，它的运行，是一，一切都是称呼同一事物。

In the opinion of those who are giving you these present lessons, the answer is locked up in the INNER SELF of THE ALL, along with its Secret of Being.
按照目前正在给你这些课程的人的观点，答案被锁在全能者的内在自我里面，与它存在的秘密伴随始终。

The Law of Correspondence, in our opinion, reaches only to that aspect of THE ALL, which may be spoken of as "The Aspect of BECOMING."

Back of that Aspect is "The Aspect of BEING" in which all Laws are lost in LAW; all Principles merge into PRINCIPLE--and THE ALL; PRINCIPLE; and BEING; are IDENTICAL, ONE AND THE SAME.
在我们看来，一致法则只是触及了全能者的表层，或许也可以说是形成的层面。表层的背面是本质的层面，在那里所有的法则都消失在大法则中，所有的法则都融合成大法则——而全能者、大法则和一切存在，都是一样的、是一、是同一事物。

Therefore, Metaphysical speculation on this point is futile.
因此，形而上学关于这一点的思索是毫无意义的。

We go into the matter here, merely to show that we recognize the question, and also the absurdity of the ordinary answers of metaphysics and theology.
我们在这里提及这个问题，只是为了表明我们认识到这个问题，同时也指明形而上学和神学关于这个问题的各种常见答案的荒谬。

In conclusion, it may be of interest to our students to learn that while some of the ancient, and modern, Hermetic Teachers have rather inclined in the direction of applying the Principle of Correspondence to the question, with the result of the "Inner Nature" conclusion,
最后，我们的学生可能有兴趣弄清楚这个问题，而一些古代和现代的赫尔墨斯神秘学说的老师宁可倾向于运用一致法则来指导，结果得出内在本质的结论。

--still the legends have it that HERMES, the Great, when asked this question by his advanced students, answered them by PRESSING HIS LIPS TIGHTLY TOGETHER and saying not a word, indicating that there WAS NO ANSWER.
据说，当伟大的赫尔墨斯被他进步的学生们问及这个问题时，他以嘴唇紧闭来回答他们，一个字也不说，表示这个问题没有答案。

But, then, he may have intended to apply the axiom of his philosophy, that: "The lips of Wisdom are closed, except to the ears of Understanding,"
believing that even his advanced students did not possess the Understanding which entitled them to the Teaching.

但是，接着，他可能有目的地运用他的哲理箴言来回答：智慧的嘴唇是紧闭的，除非聆听它的耳朵才能理解。相信即使他进步的学生们都没有真正理解这个问题。
At any rate, if Hermes possessed the Secret, he failed to impart it, and so far as the world is concerned THE LIPS OF HERMES ARE CLOSED regarding it. And where the Great Hermes hesitated to speak, what mortal may dare to teach?
无论如何，如果赫尔墨斯拥有这个秘密，那么他也无法传授它，以致就世人而言，赫尔墨斯的嘴唇对它始终紧闭着。

But, remember, that whatever be the answer to this problem, if indeed there be an answer the truth remains that: "While All is in THE ALL, it is equally true that THE ALL is in All."
但是，请记住，无论这个问题的答案是什么，如果真有一个答案——真理依然是：一切存在于全能者之中，同样，全能者存在于万物之中也是正确的。

The Teaching on this point is emphatic.
关于这一点的教导非常重要。

And, we may add the concluding words of the quotation:
"To him who truly understands this truth, hath come great knowledge."
我们或许可以在它后面加上结论性的话语：
对于真正领会这个真理的人，他已经获得大智。

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。

CHAPTER VI　THE DIVINE PARADOX
第六章 神性的悖论

"The half-wise, recognizing the comparative unreality of the Universe, imagine that they may defy its Laws—such are vain and presumptuous fools, and they are broken against the rocks and torn asunder by the elements by reason of their folly.
——The Kybalion

“小智小慧的，认为宇宙相对的不真实，想象他们能够去对抗法则——那真是徒然和放肆的愚者，他们的愚蠢只会是搬起石头砸自己的脚。
——The Kybalion

The truly wise, knowing the nature of the Universe,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.
——The Kybalion

真正的智慧，知晓宇宙的本性，利用法则对抗法则；利用较高的对抗较低的；依靠炼金术的艺术去转化粗贱的成为财富，因而获胜。
——The Kybalion

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.

——The Kybalion
掌控不是在异梦或者异象中，幻想的意象或者生命中，而是利用较高的力量去对抗较低的——靠着在更高层面的振动，摆脱较低层面的痛苦。转化，不是专横地否定，是大师的武器。”
——The Kybalion

Transmutation, not presumptuous denial, is the weapon of the Master."--The Kybalion.
——The Kybalion

大师们的武器是转换变化而非傲气十足地拒绝。 ——Kybalion
——The Kybalion

This is the Paradox of the Universe, resulting from the Principle of Polarity which manifests when THE ALL begins to Create--hearken to it for it points the difference between half-wisdom and wisdom.
这是宇宙的悖论，由全能者开始创造时显化的极性法则所导致——注意，它指出了小智小慧和真智慧之间的差别。

While to THE INFINITE ALL, the Universe, its Laws, its Powers, its life, its Phenomena, are as things witnessed in the state of Meditation or Dream;
对于无限全能者——这个宇宙，它的法则，它的力量，它的生命，它的现象，都是如同在冥想或者梦境中被观察的事物；

yet to all that is Finite, the Universe must be treated as Real, and life, and action, and thought, must be based thereupon, accordingly, although with an ever understanding of the Higher Truth.
Each according to its own Plane and Laws.

然而对于有限的人类，宇宙必须像真实那样被对待，人类的生命、行动以及思想一定基于此上建立。
相应地，每一个都有更高真理的理解。
每一个都遵守它自己的层面和律则。

Were THE ALL to imagine that the Universe were indeed Reality, then woe to the Universe, for there would be then no escape from lower to higher, divineward
--then would the Universe become a fixity and progress would become impossible.
假如全能者想象出来的宇宙的确是真实的，那么宇宙将值得忧伤，因为从低级到高级的演化过程中没有任何逃路
――然后宇宙会变成固定不变，并且演化进步也变得不可能。

And if Man, owing to half-wisdom, acts and lives and thinks of the Universe as merely a dream (akin to his own finite dreams) then indeed does it so become for him, and like a sleep-walker he stumbles ever around and around in a circle, making no progress, and being forced into an awakening at last by his falling bruised and bleeding over the Natural Laws which he ignored.
如果那些并不怎么聪明的人仅仅把宇宙想象成一个虚幻的梦，那他们的行为举止、生活状态也像睡梦中的那样，他们将在一个圆圈里蹒跚地梦游了一圈又一圈，毫无进步，最后被他忽略的大自然法则碰得鼻青脸肿和头破血流而醒来。

Keep your mind ever on the Star, but let your eyes watch over your footsteps, lest you fall into the mire by reason of your upward gaze.
保持你的思想永远注视在天空上面，但让你的目光留意你的脚步。否则，因为你光向上看，会摔到泥里。

Remember the Divine Paradox, that while the Universe IS NOT, still IT IS.
Remember ever the Two Poles of Truth the Absolute and the Relative. Beware of Half-Truths.
记住这个神性的悖论，宇宙不是真的，但它又是真的。
永远记住真理的两极——绝对和相对。要谨慎，都只是真理的部分。

What Hermetists know as "the Law of Paradox" is an aspect of the Principle of Polarity.
赫尔墨斯者们知道，“矛盾法则”是极性法则的一个方面。
The Hermetic writings are filled with references to the appearance of the Paradox in the consideration of the problems of Life and Being.
在关于生命和存在的思考上，赫尔墨斯神秘学的很多论著里有很多是和矛盾的出现有关的。
The Teachers are constantly warning their students against the error of omitting the "other side" of any question.
导师不断提醒学生们：不要犯忽视问题的“另一面”的错误。
And their warnings are particularly directed to the problems of the Absolute and the Relative, which perplex all students of philosophy, and which cause so many to think and act contrary to what is generally known as "common sense."
他们的提醒特别是针对关于绝对和相对的问题，这困扰了所有哲学学生，导致太多人进行与普遍所知的“常识”相反的思考和行动。

And we caution all students to be sure to grasp the Divine Paradox of the Absolute and Relative, lest they become entangled in the mire of the Half-Truth.
我们警告所有的学生，要确确实实地把握住绝对和相对的神性悖论，以免他们陷入小智小慧的泥潭。

With this in view this particular lesson has been written. Read it carefully!
因为看到了这点，才有了这个特殊的章节。要仔细阅读！

The first thought that comes to the thinking man after he realizes the truth that the Universe is a Mental Creation of THE ALL, is that the Universe and all that it contains is a mere illusion; an unreality; against which idea his instincts revolt.
当思考者意识到宇宙是全能者的精神创造的真相后，他的第一想法是，宇宙及其包含在它里面的一切都是幻觉或不真实的。这一发现恰恰有悖于人类的本性。

But this, like all other great truths, must be considered both from the Absolute and the Relative points of view.
但是，这个发现就像人类其他的伟大发现一样，必须同时从绝对论和相对论的两个方面思考。

From the Absolute viewpoint, of course, the Universe is in the nature of an illusion, a dream, a phantasmagoria, as compared to THE ALL in itself.
从绝对的视点，理所当然的，和全能者本身比较，这个宇宙有一种幻象的性质，一个梦境般的性质，一种幻灯片一样的性质。

We recognize this even in our ordinary view, for we speak of the world as "a fleeting show" that comes and goes, is born and dies
我们甚至在日常的观察中也有对这些的认识，因为我们说世界如同“飘逝的烟云”，红尘滚滚在生与死中来来去去

--for the element of impermanence and change, finiteness and unsubstantiality, must ever be connected with the idea of a created Universe when it is contrasted with the idea of THE ALL, no matter what may be our beliefs concerning the nature of both.
——由于无常和变化，由于有限的和非实质性的因素，当和全能者的观念相对的时候，必定和这个创化的宇宙的观念联系起来，无论我们相信什么都会关心这两方面的性质。

Philosopher, metaphysician, scientist and theologian all agree upon this idea, and the thought is found in all forms of philosophical thought and religious conceptions, as well as in the theories of the respective schools of metaphysics and theology.
哲学家，形而上学家，科学家和神学家，都认同有这个观念，并且这个想法可以在所有的哲学思想和宗教体系中发现，同样也在不同的形而上学和神学学派中发现。

So, the Hermetic Teachings do not preach the unsubstantiality of the Universe in any stronger terms than those more familiar to you, although their presentation of the subject may seem somewhat more startling.
所以，赫尔墨斯的教导并不是在用比你所熟悉的词汇更强烈的，去宣称宇宙的非实在性，尽管这个主题的表达有些让人吃惊。

Anything that has a beginning and an ending must be, in a sense, unreal and untrue, and the Universe comes under the rule, in all schools of thought.
任何事物，有开始和终结的，从某方面看去，必然是不实在和不真实的，并且在所有思想学派里，宇宙是在规则下出现。

From the Absolute point of view, there is nothing Real except THE ALL, no matter what terms we may use in thinking of, or discussing the subject.
从绝对论的观点方面来说，除了全能者本身，没有什么是真实存在的，无论我们用什么样的词汇来思考或讨论这个主题。
Whether the Universe be created of Matter, or whether it be a Mental Creation in the Mind of THE ALL--it is unsubstantial, non-enduring, a thing of time, space and change.
不管宇宙是由物质创造，还是由全能者的思想中精神创造——它是非物质的、不持久的，一个时间、空间和变化的事物。

We want you to realize this fact thoroughly, before you pass judgment on the Hermetic conception of the Mental nature of the Universe. Think over any and all of the other conceptions, and see whether this be not true of them.
在你对宇宙的精神本质的这个赫尔墨斯概念进行判断前，我们希望你去透彻地认识这个事实。仔细思考任何的和所有的其它概念，看看是否这是不真实的。

But the Absolute point of view shows merely one side of the picture--the other side is the Relative one.
但是从观察的绝对点，只是看到图像的一面——另一面是相对的那面。

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。
