在這個世界上，沒有什麼比成功更失敗

[A new sannyasin tells Osho she is a salesman in the West.]

[一個新門徒告訴奧修，在西方她是一名推銷員。]

OSHO:

Salesman? Start selling me too!...It is needed!...

奧修：

推銷員？也開始賣我！這是需要的……

It is needed... many more people are hungry and they need it. It is very essential. Millions are missing it and they don t know how to find; they don t know where to move. In fact they don t even know whether they need it or not.

這是需要的……還有很多人在挨餓，他們需要這個。這非常關鍵。無數人在錯過它，他們不知道怎麼尋找，他們不知道要去哪裡。事實上，他們甚至不知道自己是否需要它。

The greatest problem is that man is unaware of his own basic need. If you know that you are hungry you will do something - to find something and you will find something or other, but if you are not even aware of your hunger you are going to die.

最大的問題，是人意識不到自己的基本需要。如果你知道你餓了，你就會做些什麼——找些吃的，你會找到一些東西，但是如果你甚至都意識不到自己餓了，你會餓死的。

Just think of a person who is hungry and by some mechanism is prevented from being aware of hunger. He is bound to starve himself and die, and he will never become aware that he could have lived if he had eaten.

想像一下，一個人餓了，但因為某些機制的阻礙，他意識不到自己餓了。他註定會挨餓、餓死，他永遠也意識不到，進食的話他就能活下來。

The hunger was there, he was there, but something was disconnected between the hunger and his mind. That s what has happened between our need for god and our mind. A lingering suspicion is felt that something is missing... but what is it? By and by we start becoming adjusted to this feeling that something is missing. We tend to forget it because it is inconvenient and uncomfortable.

飢餓在，他在，但飢餓跟他的頭腦之間有些東西沒有連接上。這就是發生在我們對神/上帝的需要和我們頭腦之間的。你一直都有懷疑，有些東西缺失了……但那是什麼？漸漸的，我們開始適應了這種感覺，有些東西缺失了。我們傾向於忘記它，因為它令人不適，不舒服。

It is needed. You will become my walking salesman! That s why I create sannyasins. The purpose is to send them to people who are hungry and who have forgotten completely that they are hungry.

它是需要的。你會成為我的移動推銷員！這就是為什麼我創造出了門徒。其目的在於，把這些人送到挨餓、完全忘了自己在挨餓的人那裡去。

Just seeing you, seeing your joy and seeing your happiness, something will start stirring in their hearts. They will start enquiring, and once they enquire, they are caught.

僅憑看到你，看到你的喜悅，看到你的開心，有些東西就會攪動他們的心。他們會開始探尋，一旦他們開始探尋了，他們就被逮住了。

That very enquiry starts their journey. If we can help people just to enquire, that s enough. Then they start groping. Something clicks and their minds start feeling their need; then they start knowing what is missing.

那份探尋開啟了他們的旅程。如果我們能幫助人們去探尋，這就足夠了。然後他們會開始求索。有些東西響了，他們的頭腦開始感受到自己的需要，接著他們開始知道缺失了什麼。

In the ancient times it was never so. Everybody was aware that god was missing and everybody was trying and searching and finding. Now people are still trying but they try something else -- a good house, a good job, more money, this and that, and they think these are the things that are missing. Once they have these things there will be no problem. But they are living in a fool s land.

古代從不這樣。每個人都知道，是神/上帝缺失了，每個人都在嘗試、尋找、探尋。現在人們仍然在嘗試，但他們嘗試的是別的東西——一所好房子，一份好工作，更多的錢，這個那個，他們認為自己缺失的是這些東西。一旦他們擁有了這些東西，就不會有問題了。但他們活的很愚蠢。

Once these needs are fulfilled, suddenly for the first time there is the real problem. Now they have a good house, a good family, a secure job, money, everything. Suddenly everything falls flat and they recognize that the thing that was missing is still missing. It is missing even more so, because now all is there that they used to think would be a fulfillment. It is there and there is no fulfillment.

一旦那些需求得到滿足，突然，第一次，真正的問題來了。現在他們有了好房子，好家庭，一份安穩的工作，錢跟一切。突然，一切都沒達到預期，他們發現，缺失的東西仍然是缺失的。現在甚至缺失更多了，因為現在一切都有了，他們常以為那些東西會帶來滿足。東西都有了，卻沒有滿足。

Nothing fails like success in the world: once you succeed you have come to the brink of failure. Those who are not successful can go on hoping but what is there for the successful to hope for? what is there for a Rockefeller to hope for? He has all that can be hoped for... more than he could have ever dreamed. Now what?

在這個世界上，沒有什麼比成功更失敗：一旦你成功了，你就來到了失敗的邊緣。那些不成功的人繼續盼望著，但成功的人要盼望什麼呢？有什麼是一個洛克菲勒好盼望的？他擁有你能盼望的一切……他連做夢都想不到。現在還有什麼？

That s why it happens that when people are a little richer they become religious... when a society becomes a little affluent. It is not just accidental that I have more Germans from Europe than anybody else -- because they are now the richest people in Europe. It is not accidental. When there is richness, suddenly one starts feeling that richness won t do; then the real need is felt.

這就是為什麼，當人們變得富有一點的時候，他們變得虔誠……當一個社會變得富裕了一些。我有更多來自德國的歐洲門徒，這不是偶然——因為現在他們是全歐洲最有錢的人。這不是偶然。一旦富有了，突然一個人開始覺得，有錢並不夠，他們感受到了真正的需求。

So Germany needs many salesmen and many saleswomen, mm?

所以德國人需要很多男銷售員，很多女銷售員，嗯？
