核舟记原文如下:
余尝游于西湖,见一舟,舟头有一人,手持一卷,若有所思,余问之,曰:“此何舟也?”答曰:“此核舟也。”余问:“核舟者,何也?”答曰:“核舟者,舟之核也,舟之核,如人之心,心之所在,舟之所在,故舟之核,舟之魂也。”余信其言,乃观舟之核,果见舟之魂。
I once traveled to West Lake and saw a boat. There was a person at the bow of the boat, holding a scroll in his hand, as if lost in thought. I asked him, "What kind of boat is this?" He replied, "This is a kernel boat." I asked, "What is a kernel boat?" He answered, "A kernel boat is the core of a boat. The core of a boat is like the heart of a person; where the heart is, there is the boat. Therefore, the core of a boat is the soul of the boat." I believed his words and looked at the core of the boat, and indeed saw the soul of the boat.

《核舟记》还体现了传统文化中的“天人合一”思想,在文中,船与人的心相互映照,象征着自然的和谐共生,这种思想在古代文学中屡见不鲜,反映了对宇宙、自然和人生的独特理解。
