Hermann Hesse

Hermann Hesse was a German-Swiss poet, novelist, and painter. In 1946, he received the Nobel Prize in Literature. His best known works include Steppenwolf, Siddhartha, and The Glass Bead Game (also known as Magister Ludi) which explore an individual's search for spirituality outside society.In his time, Hesse was a popular and influential author in the German-speaking world; worldwide fame only came later. Hesse's first great novel, "Peter Camenzind", was received enthusiastically by young Germans desiring a different and more "natural" way of life at the time of great economic and technological progress in the country. Throughout Germany, many schools are named after him. In 1964, the Calwer Hermann-Hesse-Preis was founded, which is awarded every two years, alternately to a German-language literary journal or to the translator of Hesse's work to a foreign language. There is also a Hermann Hesse prize associated with the city of Karlsruhe,Germany.

Like when someone, who has eaten and drunk far too much, vomits it back up again with ag­on­ising pain and is nev­er­the­less glad about the re­lief, thus this sleep­less man wished to free him­self of these pleas­ures, these habits and all of this point­less life and him­self, in an im­mense burst of dis­gust.

For how long had he not heard this voice any more, for how long had he reached no height any more, how even and dull was the man­ner in which his path had passed through life, for many long years, without a high goal, without thirst, without el­ev­a­tion, con­tent with small lust­ful pleas­ures and yet never sat­is­fied! For all of these many years, without know­ing it him­self, he had tried hard and longed to be­come a man like those many, like those chil­dren, and in all this, his life had been much more miser­able and poorer than theirs, and their goals were not his, nor their wor­ries

I’ve had to ex­per­i­ence des­pair, I’ve had to sink down to the most fool­ish one of all thoughts, to the thought of sui­cide, in or­der to be able to ex­per­i­ence di­vine grace, to hear Om again, to be able to sleep prop­erly and awake prop­erly again. I had to be­come a fool, to find At­man in me again. I had to sin, to be able to live again. Where else might my path lead me to? It is fool­ish, this path, it moves in loops, per­haps it is go­ing around in a circle. Let it go as it likes, I want to take it.
