我們的祖先對宇宙創生、含容萬物的規律，先是由有象而無象，再來是由無象而有象，不斷地加以往復探討，雖各有所見，但總結起來，則可用「多、二、一（0）」的螺旋結構予以概括。這種結構，不但可適用於科學，也一樣適用於哲學、文學與美學；如果將它對應於西方所謂的「真」、「善」、「美」來看，則「一（0）」為「真」、「二」的規律作用與過程為「善」、「多」為「美」。本文即著眼於此，探討「真、善、美」與「多、二、一（0）」的螺旋結構的對應情形，以見兩者一而二、二而一的密切關係。

Our ancestors, while exploring the origin of universe, tried to construe the natural phenomenon as a transition from ”physics to metaphysic” and vice versa. They concluded that the ”multiple, binary and unitary (zero)” spiral structure implied the regularity of nature and also applied to philosophy, esthetics and literature. Such a spiral structure corresponds to the interaction of ”truth, goodness and beauty” in western culture. In other words, the ”unitary (zero)” reflects truth; the function and process the ”binary” corresponds to goodness; and the ”multiple” unfolds the flourishing beauty. This article explores their close relation.
