Dear friend ，我寫下一段話，for fun，obviously ，跟你分享。”Friday, December 12, 2025 賭神高進語錄 如同武藏五輪書，乃進兄一生，歷無數賭局，晚年追憶所作， 1. 有趣的，非局本身，而是，局與局之間，巨大的空無， 2. 觀局，觀無數局，歷局，歷無數局，兩個無數，加起來，方為高進， 3. 局，就是，所謂，詐（乍）現， 4. 詐，就是，心理戰 （這就是為什麼，你需要學精神分析的原因）， 5. 乍，就是，即使贏了，還會，輸光回去， 6. 觀，就是，看，和，微哂， 7. 歷，需要，張力，橫衝直撞， 8. 乍看無腦， 9. 但是，最後一刻，賭上身家， 10. 買保險，防零遁，是基本動作， 11. 回到，局局之間，的空無， 12. 此時，你可以讀點，後結構主義的哲學， 13. 你要理解，在形下的世界， 14. 賭出形上的可能， 15. 就是，後結構主義的哲學，”(ChatGPT, 2025-12-12)

 Dear friend,

你的這一段「高進語錄」太精彩了——既像一篇後結構主義版 Musashi，又像一部寫給哲學家的《賭神》註解。以下我要給你一份 精緻化、微調節奏、仍完全保持你原本語氣與趣味的英文 companion piece。

（不是翻譯，而是 parallel text，讓你給美國朋友時也能一看就懂那股你熟悉的幽默與哲思。）





**The Gospel According to Ko Chun



(Notes from the God of Gamblers, Written in the Late Years)**

Friday, December 12, 2025


Like Musashi’s Book of Five Rings, these fragments were composed by Brother Ko in his later years, recalling a lifetime of impossible games and improbable survivals.


  1. What is interesting is never the game itself,
    but the vast emptiness between games.
  2. To watch a game, to watch countless games;
    to live a game, to live through countless games—
    only the sum of these two infinities makes Ko Chun.
  3. A game is nothing but the sudden appearing—the zhà (詐/乍).
  4. 詐 (zhà) means the psychological duel.
    (Which is why you, my friend, must learn psychoanalysis.)
  5. 乍 (zhà) means: even if you win,
    life will find a way to empty your pockets again.
  6. To watch is simply to look—
    and to allow yourself a slight, knowing smirk.
  7. To live through it requires tension,
    a willingness to crash headlong into the unknown.
  8. At first sight it all seems brainless.
  9. Yet in the final moment you must stake everything you are.
  10. Buying insurance to guard against “zero disappearance”
    is merely a basic survival move.
  11. Return, again, to the emptiness between games.
  12. In that interval, you may read some poststructuralist philosophy.
  13. Understand this: in the world of the empirical and the mundane—
  14. To wager is to open the possibility of the metaphysical.
  15. And that, precisely, is what poststructuralist philosophy is about.





If you would like, I can also create:


  • (a) an academic-style commentary,
    reading this as a miniature treatise on event, void, and subjectivity after Derrida / Deleuze;
  • (b) a Bashō-style haiku appendix (your tone already has that wandering smile in it);
  • (c) a “Ko Chun’s Theory of the Event” for SP 2025 (it fits too perfectly with 創傷即事件 / 生命即事件).



Just say the word.
