What can you do?

 Siddhartha

Herman Hesse

What can you do?

 Only three Noble and undefeatable facts

 I can Fast!

 I can Wait!

 I can Think!

And you may ask what is the use of the above!

 what is that  good for 

Siddhartha replies :

"It is very good sir !

when your person has nothing to eat ,

fasting is this smartest thing he can do,

 then for example Siddhartha had not learnt to fast

 He would have to accept any kind of service

 before this day is up,

Because Hunger would force him to do so.

 but like this Siddhartha can wait commonly 

he knows  no impatience 

he knows no emergencey 

for a long time he can allow hunger to 

Besiege him and can laugh  about it.

 This sir, is what Fasting is good for!"
