Q: How was yesterday's program? Was it successful?
問：昨天的活動怎樣？成功嗎？
⋯⋯

古儒吉：如果沒有要贏得什麼，就沒有成功的問題。如果你只是來給予和服務，就沒有什麼想要贏得。成功表示非至高無上的。成功意味著什麼？它意味著有失敗的機會，如果某人是至高無上的，就沒有什麼可喪失。在成功背後追著跑的人，只是顯示出他的侷限性。
成功意味著跨過一個限制。要跨過限制你需要假定你有個限制存在，而假定有個限制存在是在輕估你自己。如果你是無邊界的，那哪裡是你的成功呢？如果你沒有界線可跨，那就沒有所謂成功。你不會說你成功地喝了一杯水，因為那是完美存於你內在的能力，但當你做了超越自己認定的界線的事，你會聲稱成功。

當你了解到自己是無限的，無為（不認為自己做了什麼，一切都是本分內的發生）就是成就。

聲稱成功的人只是彰顯自己的侷限。如果你覺得非常成功，那表示你已輕估自己。你所贏得的一切，只會遠小於你，自傲於任何贏得的東西是小看自己。

希拉：如果覺得服務沒有很成功，那又該如何？

古儒吉：你可以覺得你做的不夠，不要覺得你沒有成功。真正的服務是自覺做的不夠（所以你服務）。

凱：你不是很成功！（笑）

古儒吉：我就是圓滿！
(榮昌老師分享)

Guruji: There is no question of success if you have nothing to gain. There is nothing to gain if you have only come to give and serve. Success indicates non- supremacy. Success means what? It indicates that there are chances of failure. If something is supreme there is nothing to lose. People running after success only exhibit their limitations.
Success means crossing a limit. To cross a limit you need to assume that you have a limit. Assuming a limit is underestimating yourself. If you have no boundaries then where is your success? If you have limitless access then there is no success. You don't say that you successfully drank a glass of water, because it is well within your capabilities. But when you do something that is beyond your perceived limits you claim success.
When you realise your unboundedness then no action is an achievement.
Anyone who claims to be successful only reveals his limitation. If you feel very successful it means that you have underestimated yourself. All your gains can only be smaller than you. Taking pride in any gains is belittling yourself.
Sheila: What if you feel that you are not serving successfully?
Guruji: You may feel that you have not done enough but you will not feel that you have not been successful. Real service is when you feel that you have not done enough.
Kai: You are not very successful! (Laughter)

Guruji: I am just full!
