Paperback / Hardback

“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.

  • A profound journey of self-discovery and enlightenment.
  • Explores the search for meaning beyond material pursuits.
  • Challenges traditional teachings in the quest for wisdom.
  • A timeless meditation on personal fulfillment and contentment.
  • Inspires readers to forge their own path to inner peace.
