Download or read book Siddhartha written by Hermann Hesse and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2017-03-29 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Siddhartha learns along his journey that experience, rather than avoiding certain things in the "real world," leads to understanding; rather than desires and belongings being a distraction, they are as important to our perception of the world as all other actions and thought. Siddhartha learns that enlightenment only comes from within--it cannot come to us through our teachers or worldly possessions. It is available at all understanding ages and in all manners of life. It comes from calmness, compassion, and regarding all things as being of value in and of themselves. This edition of "Siddhartha," a shorter English version of the German classic with illustrations, awakens the inquiring and compassionate minds of readers of any and all ages. "Siddhartha" is a uniquely spiritual novel, and perhaps may also be described as a religious novel and a philosophical novel; it is strikingly honest in the dark aspects of life that are revealed in Siddhartha's spiritual journey and the self-discovery that he undergoes. He greatly admires Buddha and Buddhist teachings, but even his admiration for the greatest of all teachers will not persuade him of any more valid authority than his own suffering and his own experience. "Siddhartha" has been called a musical novel and a lyrical novel, and there is no other book like it among the classics of fiction, religious writings, and philosophy. Hermann Hesse was born in 1877 in Calw, a town at the edge of the Black Forest in Germany. His family were Swiss missionaries, and he was expelled from the seminary at the age of fourteen. After his rebellious and depressed teenage years, he worked in bookstores and began to make his way into Germany's literary circles. It was at the age of thirty-seven that he published his first novel, the partly autobiographical "Peter Camenzind"; he went on to publish a number of other books, including "Demian" in 1919 (an instant critical and popular success), "Steppenwolf," and "The Glass Bead Game." He published "Siddhartha," his ninth novel, in 1922. Hesse was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature in 1946, then living a quiet life in Switzerland until his death aged eighty-five in 1962.

Book Siddhartha  Dual Language

Download or read book Siddhartha Dual Language written by Hermann Hesse and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2013-09-05 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nobel prize-winning author Hermann Hesse imagined life in India during the lifetime of the Buddha to create this memorable tale about a restless seeker of enlightenment. First published in 1922, Siddhartha employs powerful symbolism to impart its timeless teachings. The story concerns a young Brahman who quits his comfortable home to join a roving group of holy men in striving to empty their hearts of passion and desire through self-denial and meditation. Discouraged by his failure to find Nirvana after three years of the strictest asceticism, the young seeker turns to the fleshly world, where he becomes a wealthy merchant and partakes of sensual pleasures with a sophisticated courtesan. Years of materialistic self-indulgence numb Siddhartha's soul, but at his moment of greatest despondency, he begins to experience his long-sought spiritual awakening. True enlightenment, he realizes, cannot be received from the lessons of others; it must be attained through individual struggle. This handy dual-language edition — with its excellent line-for-line English translation on pages facing the original German text — offers students an outstanding opportunity to hone their German-language skills while discovering a literary classic.
