Abstract

Abstract:This article argues that based on the Pythagorean numerical-musical cosmology, Augustine holds that order, as the immanent power of God, determines the eternal spectrum of beauty, goodness, and harmony in both the physical and metaphysical realms. The principle of harmonic motions of the universe, the principle of knowing the truth, and the principle of right living constitute the divine order of nature, logic, and ethics. In the three realms, nothing can be irrelevant to the inviolate numerical order, which is the essence of all creatures.

神圣秩序的光谱:善、美与和谐
摘要:奥古斯丁以毕达哥拉斯的数字-音乐宇宙论为基础,认为秩序作为上帝的内在力量,决定了物质和形而上学领域中永恒的美、善与和谐。宇宙和谐运动的原则、认识真理的原则和正确生活的原则构成了自然、逻辑和伦理的神圣秩序。在三界中,没有什么与不可违背的数字秩序无关,这是所有生物的本质。
