Select Classics: Siddhartha: (Original, Unabridged Classic, Premium Hardbound Collector's Edition, Ideal for Gifting) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9789815266634)

"Words do not express thoughts very well. They always become a little different immediately after they are expressed, a little distorted, a little foolish." Set in ancient India, a young and curious Siddhartha moves to the wilderness on a quest to understand the meaning and purpose of our existence in this world. Siddhartha, as a young Brahmin had become discontented with the superficiality of life, where the chase was for more personal gain and wealth, never for a lasting impact of one's actions. As a wandering ascetic, Siddhartha's search for fulfilment leads to the realization that enlightenment is a deeply personal journey, and that traditional teachings and societal norms may not necessarily lead to true wisdom and contentment. Siddhartha is a timeless and meditative narrative that urges one to take a journey of self-realization, to find their individualistic path to inner happiness.
