Siddhartha
I learned a great deal from reading the book Siddhartha.
Siddhartha is the kind of book that makes you look at your own
life. I am not overly religious, but I do believe that
spiritual guidance can be derived from many sources.
Siddhartha found enlightenment us from fasting and living
without possessions. He then found other paths to learning,
including becoming a wealthy merchant and finding his own
sexuality. Siddhartha had a very long path to his eventual
enlightenment. At the end of Siddhartha’s long journey, he
found enlightenment as a ferry boat operator. He learned from
nature and the river everything that ever was and ever will
be. I am fascinated by the idea that you can find some truths
about yourself from nature. I take long walks with my dog
every day and I see new things in nature every time I go. I
believe that God is in the trees and the clouds and everywhere
if you take the time to look for him. I believe Siddhartha is
intelligent, modest, hard-working and unprejudiced. I hope to
be the kind of person Siddhartha is in this book throughout my
life. I do not know if I have the strength of character to
starve and wander through the forest to find enlightenment. I
hope I can find enlightenment through my everyday interactions
with nature and people. The novel Siddhartha taught me that
everything is an opportunity to grow spiritually as a human.
