Unknown Story
نص القصة المصورة
- *the next day*
- They are expecting you at Kamaswami’s, he is the richest merchant of the city. If he’ll like you, he’ll accept you. I do not want you to become his servant, you shall become his equal, or else I won’t be satisfied with you.
- You’ve been lucky,” she said when they parted, “I’m opening one door after another for you. How come? Do you have a spell?
- Yesterday, I told you I knew how to think, wait, and fast, but you thought this was of no use. But it is useful for many things, Kamala, you’ll see. You’ll see that the stupid Samanas are learning and able to do many pretty things in the forest, which the likes of you aren’t capable of. The day before yesterday, I was still a shaggy beggar, yet, as soon as yesterday I have kissed Kamala, and soon I’ll be a merchant and have money and all those things you insist upon.
- But where would you be without me? What would you be, if Kamala wasn’t helping you?What if I wasn't willing?
- But, you were willing. Look, Kamala: When you throw a rock into the water, it will speed on the fastest course to the bottom of the water. This is how it is when Siddhartha has a goal, a resolution. Siddhartha does nothing, he waits, he thinks, he fasts, but he passes through the things of the world like a rock through water, without doing anything, without stirring; he is drawn, he lets himself fall. His goal attracts him, because he doesn’t let anything enter his soul which might oppose the goal. This is what Siddhartha has learned among the Samanas. This is what fools call magic and of which they think it would be effected by means of the daemons. Nothing is effected by daemons, there are no daemons. 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.
- Perhaps it is so, as you say, friend. But perhaps it is also like this: that Siddhartha is a handsome man, that his glance pleases the women, that therefore good fortune is coming towards him.”
