Hi FlorenceArt
Well of course one of the interesting things about H. is that we only possess fragments but they are very extensive. There has been much work done on interpretation - the best I have seen is by Conche.
Yes I have made some headway and believe that the fragments are a comment on the Brhadaranyaka Upanishad. The thrust of the two works is very similar and Heraclitus illuminates the basic non-dual thrust of the upanishad.
Incidentally there is nothing "mystic" about either of these works - H. can not be interpreted in this vain.
I have now found other texts for the Upanishad which are totally non-dualist. Unfortunately not available in ebook format. There is a translation by Swami Madhavananda which includes a commentary by Sankaracarya published by Advaita at a very reasonable price.
Best regards
