Heraclitus, a visionary Greek philosopher from the late 6th/early 5th-century BC, is renowned for his profound insights into the nature of change and unity. Born in Ephesus, present-day Turkey, Heraclitus' philosophy revolves around the central ideas of the unity of opposites and the perpetual flux of the universe. He believed in the harmony and justice found within strife, viewing the world as a dynamic interplay of contrasting forces. Heraclitus' iconic metaphor of life as a river encapsulates his belief in the constant flow and transformation of existence. His teachings, expressed in poetic and enigmatic fragments, continue to inspire contemplation on the transient and interconnected nature of life. Heraclitus' enduring legacy lies in his ability to challenge conventional wisdom and invite deep reflection on the ever-changing cosmos.
