Is war also peace?

[Anonymous]

Heraclitus was the Ancient Greek equivalent to Buddha... he was a prince that was set to become king of his city, but instead became a "true prophet."

He said that human wisdom is apeish to the gods. That true wisdom is to speak your mind plainly, listen actively, and act according to how you speak. That learning does not make you wise. That without mindfulness you are dead. That the mind is set afire and quickly extinguished before sleep (i think he means you should meditate at night before sleep). That death is life. That the beginning is the end. That energy destroys matter and matter destroys energy. That all things change like a river, still the same river yet never the same.

Yes I agree with the Greek Buddha

No

that is called antonym. also he wasn't referring to the actions of war but to river of life. so water can be used various ways.

It's open to interpretation and like Buddha nobody is sure if he even said those things. But the gist is that war is as natural as peace, chaos as natural as order.

only if you ignore the CONTENT in the quotation he said river explicitly.
like if i say the quran said live on the moon, any word opens any interpretation?
