为什么有些人仍然想生活在印度这样的国家？（二）
正文翻译
Carlos Webb
As a Western who has lived in India for 8 years, I give you my take.
First of all, 99.999% of the people living in India were born in India and have little choice over the matter. So, the question is more interesting if we ask why would a non-Indian choose to live in India.
India offers the best and worst of humanity. It is the kindness and the cruelest country simultaneously.
作为一个在印度生活了8年的西方人，我给出我的看法。
首先，99.999%在印度生活的人都是在印度出生的，对此几乎没有选择余地。因此，更有意思的问题是，为什么非印度人选择在印度生活。
印度同时展示了人类最好和最坏的一面。它是一个充满善良和残酷的国家。

Education: I will limit myself to primary education. In India, private education is pretty good and affordable. In the US, middle class cannot afford private schools. People have to stay in the area of the school where they want to send their kids. That’s very different from what we have in India. There are a lot of choices of school and location of stay does not matter.
教育：我将限制在初等教育范围内进行讨论。在印度，私立教育质量很好，而且价格适中。在美国，中产阶级无法承受私立学校的费用。人们必须住在他们想送孩子去的学校所在的区域。这与印度有很大不同。在印度，有很多学校可以选择，住在哪个地区并不重要。
My major issues with India are physical pollution (waste in rivers, canals, roadside, and all around), air pollution (from industry, burning garbage, and vehicles), noise pollution (Indians love to honk and the absence of zoning laws mixes light industry into residential neighborhoods), theft (anything not bolted down will be taken), cheating (from scams to deceptive pricing), overpopulation, mob mentality (which sometimes leads to group violence and lynchings), corruption (from the bottom to the top- always, everywhere), an untrustworthy food supply (what Indian food traders do to their produce is disgusting and toxic), staring, groping, and a general lack of law and order (which sometimes has severe ramifications- including rape and violence), and inconsistent infrastructure (roads, water, power, internet, etc).
我对印度的主要问题包括环境污染（河流、渠道、道路和周围的垃圾）、空气污染（来自工业、焚烧垃圾和车辆）、噪音污染（印度人喜欢按喇叭，没有区划法规将轻工业混入住宅区）、盗窃（任何未固定的东西都会被拿走）、欺骗（从骗局到虚假定价）、人口过剩、群体心态（有时导致集体暴力和私刑）、腐败（从底层到顶层-始终存在于各个地方）、不可靠的食品供应（印度食品商对他们的产品所采取的行为令人恶心和有毒）、盯着看、猥亵和缺乏法律和秩序（有时导致强奸和暴力），以及不一致的基础设施（道路、水、电力、互联网等）。

Of all of those, only 2 of them bother me enough to prevent me from living there today- air pollution and food quality. The air is major cities consistently gets me sick- I get bronchial infections regularly there. So, my body says “heck no” to Indian cities.
The food issue is more of a silent killer. It is really difficult to get clean food in India. One never knows what they are getting- especially when traveling. If you live in a major urban center, you might find a green market that sells organic produce and quality local products (soaps, honey, etc). Those are precious and well worth the additional expense. Google Indian practices of artificially ripening their foods with noxious gases. Lots of serious food science chemistry is being done by illiterate people- experimenting with chemicals that they don’t understand.
在所有这些问题中，只有两个问题让我不愿意再次居住在印度-空气污染和食品质量。在印度的主要城市，空气污染经常让我生病，我经常患上支气管感染。所以，我的身体对印度城市说“绝不”。
食品问题更像是一个潜在的杀手。在印度很难获得干净的食物。人们从来不知道他们吃到的是什么-特别是在旅行时。如果你住在一个主要的城市中心，你可能会找到一个销售有机农产品和优质本地产品（肥皂、蜂蜜等）的农贸市场。这些市场珍贵而且非常值得额外的开销。搜索一下印度用有害气体人工成熟食物的做法。许多文盲人士正在进行严肃的食品科学化学实验-试验一些他们不了解的化学物质。

Having lived for 8 years in India, power cuts, attempts to cheat me, and the like just aren’t a big deal anymore. I had my own back-up power supply, my own water filtration- I even carried earplugs to protect my noise from traffic. One can protect themselves from many of the problems- but not so easily the air and the food, unless one lives in the countryside.
在印度生活了8年之后，停电、诈骗等问题对我来说已经不是什么大事了。我有自己的备用电源，自己的水过滤器-我甚至携带耳塞以保护自己免受交通噪音的干扰。很多问题可以通过自我保护来解决-但是空气和食物不那么容易-除非你住在乡村。

So, that is the experience of navigating the problems, but your question is about why would I put up with all of that? India is a rare country to offer a completely different rhythm to life. It has a 10k year history of directing people to Unity consciousness- to the Divine. It is so deeply infused in the culture that the typical Indian has no idea how much it is there. Sadhguru is doing a great job explicating it. He explains how the balance of foods and their preparation, as presented in Ayurveda, is steeped in great wisdom and present in everyone’s kitchens already. He helps people understand that what could be judged as old-fashioned or superstitious is typically based on deep wisdom.
所以，这是应对这些问题的经验，但你的问题是为什么我要忍受所有这些？印度是一个罕见的国家，它提供了完全不同的生活节奏。它有着一万年的历史，引导人们追求统一意识-追求神性。它深深地融入了文化中，以至于典型的印度人根本不知道其中有多少。Sadhguru在阐述这一点时做得很好。他解释了食物平衡及其制备方式，如同阿育吠陀所述，蕴含了伟大的智慧，而且每个人的厨房里都有这种智慧。他帮助人们理解，那些可能被认为是老派或迷信的做法通常基于深刻的智慧。

India offers a fertile ground for personal development. Consciousness is more likely to expand there. Despite the background of stupidity (sorry I said it), it has an incredible pull to an elevated presence, being, and intelligence.
印度为个人发展提供了肥沃的土壤。意识更有可能在那里扩展。尽管存在愚蠢背景（对不起，我这么说了），但它具有引导人提升意识、存在和智慧的非凡吸引力。

Most Westerns that choose to live in India are there because they find that it supports them in their conscious development or that they feel at home with the interpersonal intimacy of the Indian family unit- then, often marrying Indians.
大多数选择生活在印度的西方人之所以如此，是因为他们发现印度在他们的意识发展上给予他们支持，或者他们在印度家庭单位的人际亲密感中感到宾至如归-通常会与印度人结婚。

Other groups: drug user/drop-outs (mainly from Europe), diplomats, NGO workers, missionaries, and business consultant types- each having their own reasons.
Big question, big answer. Hope this shed a little light on it.
其他群体包括药物使用者/辍学者（主要来自欧洲）、外交官、非政府组织工作者、传教士和商业顾问类型-每个人都有自己的原因。
这是一个关于大问题的大回答。希望这能对你有所启发。

While I was doing my PhD in IIITM Gwalior (2002-2004), I was awarded Infosys Research Grant, which included a handsome travel grant for presenting research papers in India and abroad. In 2004, I presented a research paper at Melbourne University in the area of e-governance.
I decided to take my family along with me. My daughters were around 11/12 years old then. We stopped at Singapore while going to Australia and at Hong Kong while returning. In Australia, we visited Gold Coast and Sydney in addition to Melbourne.
当我在印度信息技术与管理学院攻读博士学位时（2002-2004），我获得了印孚瑟斯研究基金，其中包括丰厚的差旅津贴，可以用于在印度和国外展示研究论文。2004年，我在墨尔本大学介绍了一篇关于电子治理领域的研究论文。
我决定带上我的家人一起去。当我们去澳大利亚时，在新加坡停留了一段时间，回程时在香港停留。在澳大利亚期间，我们除了墨尔本还参观了黄金海岸和悉尼。

It was our first experience of going abroad and we were truly mesmerized and deeply impressed by the development of these countries, particularly Australia. Australia was extremely beautiful and appeared to be an ideal country to live in.
But, we also encountered problems.
这是我们第一次出国的经历，我们对这些国家的发展感到非常着迷和深深印象深刻，尤其是澳大利亚。澳大利亚非常美丽，看起来是一个理想的居住国家。
但是，我们也遇到了问题。

· All the services including transportation were extremely expensive.
· It was almost impossible to get vegetarian food. It was too expensive in any decent restaurant.
· You can’t talk to locals even in English as their accent is quite different.
· The racial superiority complex of the locals was quite visible.
所有的服务，包括交通，都非常昂贵。 · 几乎不可能找到素食食物。在任何体面的餐厅里，素食食物都太贵了。 · 即使用英语与当地人交谈也很困难，因为他们的口音与我们有很大不同。 · 当地人的种族优越情结非常明显。

In our hotels, we had televisions which showed many local channels. However, there was too much nudity on these programmes that we would not dare to play any of these channels except the news channel as our children were sharing rooms with us.
在我们的酒店里，我们有电视，可以收看许多本地频道。然而，这些节目中有太多的裸露镜头，我们不敢播放这些频道，只能看新闻频道，因为我们的孩子与我们共用房间。

We stayed in these countries for more than two weeks.
However, by the end of the tour we got exasperated and bored of these journeys and desperately wanted to come back to India.
I still remember the joy we felt when we boarded the Air India flight from Hong Kong.
我们在这些国家逗留了两个多星期。
然而，到旅行结束时，我们变得非常疲惫和厌倦，非常渴望回到印度。
我仍然记得我们从香港登上印度航空飞机时的喜悦。

You can’t separate India from Indians irrespective of where they go and where they live.
There is nothing like living in India, if you are an Indian.
However, you can realize this truth only if you have been abroad for some time.
无论他们去哪里生活，在哪里，你都无法将印度与印度人分开。
如果你是一个印度人，那么在印度生活是无可比拟的。
然而，只有在国外生活一段时间后，你才能意识到这个真理。

My perspective: Two things are very different in India - Healthcare, and Education. Before everyone gets worked up, let me put my point through.
Healthcare: India’s healthcare is bad for the people who depend on Govt hospitals and schemes. But the middle class, which generally opts for private hospitals, has better access to healthcare in India than in the US. Private medical facilities are extremely expensive and beyond the reach of the middle class of the US. They need insurance for everything.
我的观点是：印度的两个方面与美国非常不同，即医疗保健和教育。在大家开始争论之前，让我阐述一下我的观点。
医疗保健：对于依赖政府医院和计划的人来说，印度的医疗保健状况不佳。但是中产阶级一般选择私立医院，在印度比在美国拥有更好的医疗保健条件。私立医疗机构非常昂贵，美国的中产阶级难以承担这样的费用。他们需要为一切都购买保险。

My logic may sound absurd to many people, but you need to consider the boundary cases. Most cancer patients in the US need insurance for a PET-CT and it will only be done when recommended by their Oncologist. They end up waiting in queue for weeks & months. In India, you can go to any Oncologist, ask for PET-CT and they will oblige. Corporate health insurance policies would even cover the expense. Waiting in a queue is really scary for a Cancer patient. You never know how aggressive is your disease.
我的逻辑对很多人来说可能听起来很荒谬，但你需要考虑边界情况。在美国，大多数癌症患者需要进行PET-CT检查的保险，只有在肿瘤科医生的建议下才会进行。他们最终要排上几周甚至几个月的队。在印度，你可以去找任何一位肿瘤学家，要求做PET-CT，他们都会答应。公司的健康保险政策甚至可以支付这些费用。对癌症患者来说，排队等候真的很可怕。你永远不知道你的病有多严重。

These are my personal views. I understand there are 1000 other challenges, but I felt these 2 points have hit me emotionally.
There are 100 other reasons to stay in India as well - Relatives, Family history, Friends, Memories, Food, Growth opportunities, Nationalism, Religion, Heritage, Roots, Internet, Mobile communication, Options in every walk of life, etc.
这些都是我个人的观点。我知道还有其他1000个挑战，但我觉得这两个观点在情感上对我产生了影响。
还有其他100个原因也可以留在印度 - 亲戚、家族历史、朋友、回忆、食物、成长机会、民族主义、宗教、遗产、根源、互联网、移动通信、生活的各个方面的选择等等。

I am not sure if I am the right person to answer this, as I have immigrated to the UK and have been living here for the last 4 years. However, I am going to answer this question from a very personal perspective. You may not think like me (Disclaimer!).
我不确定我是否是回答这个问题的合适人选，因为我已经移民到英国并在这里生活了4年。但是，我将从非常个人的角度回答这个问题。你可能不会和我想法一样（免责声明！）。

If someone tells me today that I will have to move back to India forever, I will not be very disheartened. Yes, It might prove challenging to commence life anew after doing whatever I did in the UK, but I don’t see why it will be utterly demoralizing to live in my home-country. I was born and brought up in Delhi, the capital of India. I stayed in Delhi, in my parents’ house, for the first 24 years of my life. In that house, I have encountered a myriad of moments - from the joy of receiving my first salary to enduring the pang of my first heartbreak, friendships, experiencing both loyalty and betrayal, shedding tears of both joy and sorrow. The walls hold memories of cherished family moments, witnessing the birth of my niece, Samaria, sibling fights, mummy's meals (and lots of love), and papa's calm, intelligent conversations. The memories seem endless, and the nostalgia tied to my home country perpetually leaves me with the persistent question: what if I had never left?
如果今天有人告诉我，我将不得不永远搬回印度，我不会很沮丧。是的，在英国做了我在英国做过的事情之后，重新开始生活可能是一个挑战，但我不明白为什么在我的祖国生活就会完全令人沮丧。我在印度的首都德里出生并长大。在我生命的前24年里，我住在德里，在我父母的家里。在那所房子里，我经历了无数的时刻——从收到第一份工资的喜悦到忍受第一次心碎的痛苦，友谊，经历忠诚和背叛，流下喜悦和悲伤的泪水。墙上挂着珍贵的家庭时刻的回忆，见证了我侄女撒玛利亚的出生，兄弟姐妹的争吵，妈妈的饭菜(和很多的爱)，爸爸平静而睿智的谈话。记忆似乎是无穷无尽的，而对祖国的怀旧之情永远让我挥之不去的问题是:如果我从未离开过会怎样?

Leaving emotions aside, I have personally seen people do very well financially, (perhaps better than I’ve seen many people do here) back home. Delhi is particularly the hub of many Indian subsidiaries of MNC giants like Microsoft, Amazon, Citibank etc. The quality of life in some parts of Delhi is astonishingly good. That brings me to point that there are parts where the quality of life is not good, rather very poor, and the distinction with the good parts is significant; as opposed to somewhere like the UK where that distinction is not obnoxiously apparent. We also can’t ignore the fact in general, jobs here (particularly low(er) skilled/admin/customer service jobs) pay relatively very well compared to back home.
A talented, more importantly hardworking person will do well no matter where they live. Opportunities will draw the person to anywhere in the world, and they shall adapt to the new ‘home’.
不考虑情感因素，我个人认为在家乡的人们经济上做得非常好（也许比我在这里见过的许多人做得更好）。德里特别是许多跨国公司巨头如微软、亚马逊、花旗银行等的印度子公司的中心。德里一些地区的生活质量惊人地好。这让我想到一个观点，即生活质量不好的地方很少，而和英国相比，好地方和不好地方之间的区别显著。我们也不能忽视事实，即总体而言，这里的工作（尤其是低技能/管理/客户服务工作）相对于国内来说薪水非常高。
一个有才华、更重要的是勤奋的人无论生活在哪里都会做得很好。机会将把人带到世界的任何地方，他们将适应新的“家”。

In some aspects, it is the simplicity of life. India is at least 10,000 yrs old, culturally it is very diversified, cusine fantastic, History amazing. Although big cities are crowded, there are villages, beautiful places in every state. Poor people take to my heart, their needs are just basic. I help them, that’s the greatest joy to me.
Temples, forts, mosques, Gurudwaras, Jain & Buddhist temples, Architecture are fascinating.
Having lived in the US for 56 years, $ comes a long way, food is very inexpensive. I can get help from various sources.
But most of all, I am an Indian, love my country & her people.
从某些方面来看，印度的吸引力在于生活的简单。印度至少有1万年的历史，文化非常多样化，美食令人惊叹，历史也很悠久。尽管大城市很拥挤，但每个州都有村庄和美丽的地方。我对穷人的需求深感关切，他们只需要基本的生活需要。我帮助他们，这是我最大的快乐。
寺庙、堡垒、清真寺、教堂、锡克教寺庙、耆那教寺庙和佛教寺庙以及建筑等都非常迷人。
我在美国生活了56年，钱可以发挥很大的作用，食物非常便宜。我可以从各种渠道获得帮助。
但最重要的是，我是一个印度人，热爱我的祖国和她的人民。

The previous weekend I went to fatehpuri cloth market in Delhi for some personal work. I had a friend alongside and we planned to eat the famous parathas in Chandni-Chowk’s parathe wali gali.
It’s around 1–2 km distance between fatehpuri and Chandni Chowk market. We stopped a cycle-rickshaw and he promised us the service for Rs.50.
The road was narrow through the market and rain-water had settled in the unplanned holes on the road. We felt a little pride with opting a rickshaw over walking. On our way, there was a turn, an absurd one with a pole in between. A couple of rickshaw coming from that side which were empty and a couple of rickshaw behind us, filled.
It turned chaotic. The road was narrow and there was no way two rickshaws could cross each other in that lane.
Our rider yelled, “..asshole take your rickshaws back, I have passengers, let me go” in a very harsh tone.
上个周末我去德里的法特普里布匹市场办点个人事务。我有一个朋友陪同，我们计划去坎布尔街的饼屋一条小巷品尝著名的煎饼。 法特普里和坎布尔市场之间大约有1-2公里的距离。我们拦了一辆三轮车，他答应以50卢比的价格接送我们。 市场里的道路很窄，路面上有雨水积聚在未规划的坑洞里。选择坐三轮车而不是步行，我们有点自豪感。在路上，有一个转弯，非常奇怪，中间有一个柱子。从那边来了几辆空着的三轮车，我们后面还有几辆满载的三轮车。 情况变得混乱起来。道路狭窄，两辆三轮车无法在那条巷子里相互交错。
我们的司机用非常刺耳的语气喊道：“..混蛋们把你们的三轮车开回去，我有乘客，让我过去”。
The previous weekend I went to fatehpuri cloth market in Delhi for some personal work. I had a friend alongside and we planned to eat the famous parathas in Chandni-Chowk’s parathe wali gali.
It’s around 1–2 km distance between fatehpuri and Chandni Chowk market. We stopped a cycle-rickshaw and he promised us the service for Rs.50.
The road was narrow through the market and rain-water had settled in the unplanned holes on the road. We felt a little pride with opting a rickshaw over walking. On our way, there was a turn, an absurd one with a pole in between. A couple of rickshaw coming from that side which were empty and a couple of rickshaw behind us, filled.
It turned chaotic. The road was narrow and there was no way two rickshaws could cross each other in that lane.
Our rider yelled, “..asshole take your rickshaws back, I have passengers, let me go” in a very harsh tone.

The opposite rider stopped adamantly. Our rider yelled again and they stepped a little back, tilted their rickshaws a bit and while we were passing, our rider yelled again, “..will come back and let’s have lunch there”. “There” seemed to be some place they all had lunch in/at.
I wondered, seconds back, they were yelling at each other rudely and now, they seem to be everyday friends.
I asked my rider about it and he said, “…haha. We fight everyday and we get along everyday. It’s an everyday routine.”
I smiled as we reached the main road.
对面的司机咬牙坚持不让。我们的司机再次大喊，他们稍微后退了一点，把人力车倾斜了一下，当我们经过时，我们的司机又喊道：“回来的时候一起在那里吃午饭吧。” “那里”似乎是他们都去吃午饭的地方。 我想，就在几秒钟前，他们还粗鲁地互相对骂，现在他们看起来像是每天的朋友。 我问我的司机为什么会这样，他说：“哈哈，我们每天都在吵架，但也每天和好如初。这是我们的日常。”当我们到达主干道时，我笑了。
