Siddhartha
Siddhartha
It is not for me to judge another man’s life.
I must judge, I must choose, I must spurn,
purely for myself. For myself, alone.
Steeped in the tenets of both psychoanalysis and Eastern mysticism,
Siddhartha presents a strikingly original view of man and culture,
and the arduous process of self-discovery that leads to reconciliation,
harmony, and peace.
