Heraclitus SEA (snippet: Hotel Quequén IV-submarine. Let us love 2011) Http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuI-Lla9AHQ
There are three pieces of the philosopher who speaks of the sea. One says (61 DK):
"The sea water is the purest and most polluted: for fish drinkable and saving, but for men is not drinkable, and even is pernicious." (Thalassa hydor katharótaton kaì miarótaton, ichthýsi pótimon kaì sotérion men, anthrópois dè ápoton kaì oléthrion).
pure and impure, which saves and destroys, the sea water or attribute religious meaning, are likely to be allusions to the god of wine.

For the Iliad or the Odyssey, the sea is the quintessential sterile (Atrýgetos). On the contrary, Dionysus, the god of grapes (botrys), trees (Endendros), flowers (Anthias), growth of plants (Auxites) and young shoots (Problastos), depicts the life and its manifestations. Another face of God is the one related to the sea (Pelagia and Dyal) he is the ocean (Haliéys) and extending on the beaches (Akataoîs). Plutarch adds that the Greeks considered him "the master of wine and all the liquid nature '(Monon ou tou spend oínou Diónyson allà kaì hygrâs phýseos Helles hegoûntai kyrion ...). God is a wet (Hyesan). He could move his fertility to the sea grows the masts of a ship the branches of a vine as a painter at the top of Hezekiah, does the same in the Homeric Hymn which bears his name. But death is in the water: Your body sinks into the river, after Perseus killed, the area was interpreted as an access to the gates of hell. And Heraclitus said (15 DK): "... Hades is the same (= death) and Dionysus (= life), for whom rave and celebrate the Lenaea "(... houtos of AIDES kaì Dionysus, hotels maínontai kaì lenaítsousin)

Sea or Dionysus, as the purest (katharótaton). Purifiers (Kathartaí), according to Plato, were the Orphic-Dionysian priests who promised happiness, salvation, for those who followed the god. A foil Pelinna remarked: "Tell me free Persephone Baco (eipeîn Persephónai s' hoti Bákchios élysen cars)." Heraclitus, perhaps relating the mystery language, talking about water purity (13 DK): "The pigs are happy over the clear water mud" (Hyesan borbóroi hédontai katharoi hýdati Mallon). Sea or Dionysus, as the most polluted (miarótaton). Miara, it stained with blood, and in this regard as wicked and evil. Result or not, Heraclitus (5 DK): "in vain are purified, stained with blood as if having been stuck in the mud, the mud will wash ..." (kathaírontai d 'álloi haímati miainómenoi hoîon £, you bald-base six pelôi aponízoito).

The aqueous and pleasant (77 DK): "For the soul is a form of delight become wet, and even a form of death (psychêsi [phánai] è thánaton térpsin hygrêisi genésthai). The scope of the wet Dionysus (Hyesan) and mortal (oléthrion), the heart, blood, places of pleasure (terpsin) Dionysian. 117
DK: "A man, when drunk, is led by a boy, while reeling without noticing where to go, taking the soul wet" (aner hokótan methysthêi, HUPO ágetai paides anebou sphallómenos, ouk epaíon baínei Hoke, hygrèn have psychèn). The man who returns to being a kid and not know where to tread, as if in a boat. Perceive (epaíon) and the lack of a soul wet (hygrèn have psychèn).

Addenda II: The waters dizzy. Corominas: "Saca and hungover, 1492, were applied to the flow and ebb of the sea, when he pulls out and turns to suck objects that are near the shore, where hangover receding waves'."
"The sea the color of wine" (oinopa pontoon).

What saves. The soteriological adjective appears only in the fragment 61 DK. However, the prefix sofroneîn verb, DK fragment 112, also: You are as healthy, saved it intact thought (fronein) healthy (so-), say the translators. I prefer to say, a healthy heart. As derived Fronéo brake, heart, diaphragm, gut precordial. Zolla: The man with worries, said Ovid, is as drunk, you have the guts immobilized (liquifiunt pectorals), filled with water (Lympha). Lymphatus as awkward, fearful, forgetful, incompetent. Vaporous. The fr. 112 DK: "Feel the heart is the greatest value and wisdom to say and act what is true receiving [these things] according to nature" (Sofroneîn earring megíste kaì sophie, Alethea legein kaì poiein kata physin epaíontas). Nature hides (123 DK)-Dionysus as a man hidden. Collecting (epaiontas), as in the case of the boy who guides the adult, in the absence of a soul wet (hygrèn have psychèn), having a healthy heart (so-fronein) is the largest and is a wisdom. "The dry soul is the wisest and best" (boom Xere sophotáte kaì edge) (118 DK). The Lord of the vegetation, growth of plants, hiding behind the branches and waves. Daylight. The dry, fire, as attributes of other gods. Later than the flakes Pelinna is that of the 300 BC Olbia C.: Life-Vida, Apollo, Apollo, Sol, Sol, Order-Order, Light-Light (Bios-Bios, Apollo, Apollon, Elios, Elios, Kosmos, Kosmos, Phos-Phos). Life as Apollo and what it saves. However
, 48 DK: "Life: it is true that the name of the bow is life, but his work is death" (Bios: Toi oun tóxoi onómato bios, ergon Thanatos). A work (ergon), the architecture of God (Helios and Hephaestus), which in the light of day gives no life. An invisible sea (Hades as A-ides), which at one point gives death (Thanatos). Dionysus and Apollo as brothers.
