Zhi Travels North (8)
知北遊(八)
1 Guangyao went smoothly everywhere in this world. She could meet whoever as she wanted. Nobody could refuse her invitation. She felt herself very and ubiquitously powerful. Someday she found that a man seemed to disregard her and could resist her charm. The man was Wuyou.
在這個世界上，光曜一直是無往不利的，她想見誰就見誰，沒有人能抗拒她的邀約。她總是覺得自己法力無邊，無遠弗屆。直到有一天，她突然發現，有一位先生似乎毫不領情，似乎能抗拒她的魔力，這位先生就是“無有”。
2 “Hey! Are you man on earth! Do you exist? Or do you not exist? Why do you refuse my invitation?” Guangyao asked Wuyou.
「喂！你到底是不是人啊！你到底還存不存在? 為什麼你不願接受我的邀約。」光曜這樣追問著無有。
光曜問乎無有曰：「夫子有乎？其無有乎？」
3 Keeping his long-standing attitude, Wuyou didn’t answer her.
無有還是不改其一貫的態度，對光曜的提問置若罔聞。
4 Guangyao narrowed her eyes to watch Wuyou so that she could remove bewilderment and disappointment. However, what she looked was dark and vacant.
光曜瞇著眼，想仔細地端詳無有的樣子，以解除她的迷惑與悵然若失的心情。可是無有卻黑漆漆的，似乎空無一物。
無有弗應也，光曜不得問而孰視其狀貌：窅然空然。
5 All day long Guangyao looked to him, but could not find and hear him, let alone touching.
光曜還是不死心，她瞅著眼，找了一整天，還是看不到他，也聽不到一點聲響，更不必說摸著他了。
終日視之而不見，聽之而不聞，搏之而不得也。
6 At last, she sighed and said to herself, ‘This guy’s practice has reached the highest level. When I am in the state of Samadhi, I can reach the emptiness which however, is sensed with touching. I can’t reach the emptiness that is touchless. How does Wuyou reach it? I am bewildered.”
最後，光曜歎了一口氣，自言自語的說：「這傢伙的修為已經到達了最高的境界了！當我在三昧狀態中時，我也能做到空。可是這種空，還是經由感覺查知的。我還不能達到那種無感覺的空。無有這傢伙到底是怎麼做到的？太令人費解了！」
光曜曰：「至矣，其孰能至此乎！予能有無矣，而未能無無也。及為無有矣，何從至此哉！」
