this is probably the 14 or 15 time ive read this book-i dont know the exact correlation to buddaism but i know its related.

i havent tripped in years but i still find myself pickin this bastard up

errr... watever!

You read Siddartha and not know the exact relation it has to buddhism?

Siddartha is a prince, right? Goes out of his well protected kingdom sees 4 sights, right? Old man, Dead man, Sick man, Holy man.

From here on out, desides that he's going to persuit the rest of his life with his new beliefs, only to achive Nirvana, and become The Buddah.

SO! How can you not get this from reading this book!
