If a bell failed to ring, if a stove smoked, if a wheel on a machine stuck, you knew at once where to look and did so with alacrity; you found the defect and knew how to cure it. But the thing within you, the secret mainspring that alone gave meaning to life, the thing within us that alone is living, alone is capable of feeling pleasure and pain, of craving happiness and experiencing it- that was unknown. You knew nothing about that, nothing at all, and if the mainspring failed there was no cure. Wasn't it insane?
Hermann HesseAnd many years later, as an adult student of history, Knecht was to perceive more distinctly that history cannot come into being without the substance and the dynamism of this sinful world of egoism and instinctuality, and that even such sublime creations as the Order were born in this cloudy torrent and sooner or later will be swallowed up by it again...Nor was this ever merely an intellectual problem for him. Rather, it engaged his innermost self more than any other problem, and he felt it as partly his responsibility. His was one of those natures which can sicken, languish, and die when they see an ideal they have believed in, or the country and community they love, afflicted with ills.

الفترة الأخيرة من كل مرحلة من مراحل الحياة تحمل لونا خفيفا من الذبول و الرغبة في الموت ذاتها يقودها إلي مكان جديد,إلي اليقظة,إلي بداية جديدة
Hermann Hesseقد تأتي عصور من الإرهاب و البؤس الشديد,فإذا كان من المقدر أن يكون من البؤس سعد,فلا يمكن إلا أن يكون ذلك السعد فكريا,يتجه إلي الوراء لإنقاذ ثقافة العصور القديمة ,و يتجه إلي الأمام ليمثل في صفاء و رضا.
Hermann Hesseإن الجميل و الأجمل معرضان للفناء مذ يصبحان تاريخا و ظاهرة علي وجه الأرض .هذا شئ نعلمه و نحزن له ,و لا نحاول جادين تغييره,لأنه لا سبيل إلي تغييره.
Hermann HesseLight the Christmas candles for your children! Let them sing carols! But don't delude yourselves, don't content yourselves year after year with the shabby, pathetic, sentimental feeling you have when you celebrate your holidays! Demand more of yourselves! Love and joy and the mysterious thing we call "happiness" are not over here or over there, they are only "within yourselves.
Hermann Hesseإنما هو شئ مؤسف أليم أن يموت إنسان في مثل هذا اليأس .إن الله لا يرسل إلينا اليأس ليقتلنا,بل يرسله إلينا ليوقظ فينا حياة جديدة
Hermann Hesseأحس أنه ليس غريبا مضطهدا هاربا,و أنه منبسط الصدر,لا يفكر في شئ ,و لا يشتاق إلي شئ,و أنه مندمج في الحاضر الهادئ الصافي القريب ,و أنه شاكر,مندهش قليلا من نفسه و من هذه الحالة التي يعانيها ناعما مغتبطا
و مندهشا من هذا الانشراح المجرد من الرغبات,و من هذا الصفاء المجرد من التوتر,و من هذه الطريقة اليقظة المجدية من التمتع و التأمل
Everyone can perform magic, everyone can reach his goals, if
he is able to think, if he is able to wait, if he is able to fast.

And when I had learned it, I looked at
my life, and it was also a river, and the boy Siddhartha was only
separated from the man Siddhartha and from the old man Siddhartha by a
shadow, not by something real. Also, Siddhartha's previous births were
no past, and his death and his return to Brahma was no future. Nothing
was, nothing will be; everything is, everything has existence and is
present.
