在这里看到一篇译文，感觉文章很有意思，于是自不量力参考该译文又重新翻译了一下。望大家砖头轻扔^^

一时，有擅瘟到死管理者诣傅师所，问道于师言：“闻师深精油里刻石(UNIX)之道，今以珍密相通，互受法益，师以可乎？”
师答曰：“善哉，尔今能作此觅智之举，然则实无珍密存乎油里刻石之道也。”
问道者大惑，而白师言：“然人皆曰师乃大贤于油里刻石之道者，能知过去现在一切最深奥密。师之于油里刻石，尤吾之于瘟到死(Windows)也。吾乃MCSE，且乎学贯世所鲜知之秘术，善能记忆诡秘之注册表项，更能详知任意之瘟到死API，乃至微软几忘者亦如是。是何密径吾师得缘以证如斯境界，弟子深欲知之！”
师答曰：“吾实无法可得。无一法可得者即是吾法，吾于大道实无所得！”
问者意甚嗔，谓师曰：“师自珍耳，若无秘法，何径师由而至此乎？”
师谓之曰：“人之误珍秘法，尤希光明者，珍其烛火，以手笼之，终被所灼。以是知之，无一秘法而吾自珍也。”
问者闻之，豁然有悟。

ps：红色的是我自己的理解，不知道对不对，大家给点意见，呵呵

原文：

Master Foo and the MCSE
Once, a famous Windows system administrator came to Master Foo and asked him for instruction: “I have heard that you are a powerful Unix wizard. Let us trade secrets, that we may both gain thereby.”
Master Foo said: “It is good that you seek wisdom. But in the Way of Unix, there are no secrets.”
The administrator looked puzzled at this. “But it is said that you are a great Unix guru who knows all the innermost mysteries. As do I in Windows; I am an MCSE, and I have many other certifications of knowledge not common in the world. I know even the most obscure registry entries by heart. I can tell you everything about the Windows API, yes, even secrets those of Redmond have half-forgotten. What is the arcane lore that gives you your power?”
Master Foo said: “I have none. Nothing is hidden, nothing is revealed.”
Growing angry, the administrator said “Very well, if you hold no secrets, then tell me: what do I have to know to become as powerful in the Unix way as you?”
Master Foo said: “A man who mistakes secrets for knowledge is like a man who, seeking light, hugs a candle so closely that he smothers it and burns his hand.”
Upon hearing this, the administrator was enlightened.
