昔者庄周梦为胡蝶,栩栩然胡蝶也,自喻适志与!不知周也。俄然觉,则蘧(qú)蘧然周也。不知周之梦为胡蝶与?胡蝶之梦为周与?周与胡蝶,则必有分矣。此之谓物化。(《庄子·齐物论》)
(从前庄周梦见自己变成了蝴蝶,翩翩飞舞的一只蝴蝶,遨游各处悠游自在,不知道自己是庄周。忽然醒过来,自己分明是庄周。不知道是庄周做梦化为蝴蝶呢,还是蝴蝶做梦变化为庄周呢?庄周与蝴蝶必定是有所分别的。这就叫做“物化”。)
Once I, Zhuangzi, dreamed that I became a flying butterfly, happy with
myself and doing as I pleased. I forgot that I was Zhuangzi. Suddenly I
woke up and I was Zhuangzi again. I did not know whether Zhuangzi had
been dreaming that he was a butterfly, or whether a butterfly had been
dreaming that it was Zhuangzi. There must be a difference between the
two, which is what I call "the transformation of things." (Zhuangzi)
