Siddhartha

Beschreibung

"This deluxe edition is perfect as a keepsake. This collectable hardbound deluxe edition is beautifully crafted and designed. Perfect for gifting as well as for keeps. A prized edition for any library. Siddhartha is a novel by Hermann Hesse that deals with the spiritual journey of a boy known as Siddhartha from the Indian subcontinent during the time of Lord Buddha. In a very simple prose, Hesse has conveyed a very profound message for all seekers. A brahmin boy follows his heart and goes through various lives to finally understand what it means to be enlightened. He experiences life as a pious brahmin, a Samana, a rich merchant, a lover and an ordinary ferryman, to a father. Neither a practitioner nor a devotee, neither meditating nor reciting, Siddhartha comes to blend in with the world, resonating with the rhythms of nature, bending the reader's ear down to hear answers from the river." A journey within, beyond time and self. * Explore the inner world of a seeker torn between worldly pleasures and spiritual truth. * Delve into the philosophical richness of Eastern wisdom, as retold through poetic prose. * Uncover the essence of enlightenment, not in doctrine, but in direct experience. * Trace the timeless path of renunciation, rebellion, and reunion with the self. * Witness the spiritual evolution of a man shaped by silence, suffering, and self-reflection.
