Similarities Between Hiroshima And Siddhartha
Herman Hesse & Sidhartha.

Existence is the Connector,
The Connected,
The Love of Life,
You
and I.

Whereas U and I
Do not exist
Existence does!!!
Herman Hesse and Siddhartha
Are Love and Light
That remind Nari -
Nari was in some lifetime
The stone, the soil,
The breeze, the dancing leaf,
Siddhartha
Govinda
Kamla
The Ferryman
The river

And eternally was, is, and would be
The ever waving Ocean!

AUM The Humming Bird.

Ah !
The bird humming
Is the hummingbird
That is swaying in joy
Listening to the hum of the breeze;
Opening its petals in Love
Is the Flower blushing Red ! !!

And Nari,
In Joy of Being
Hums a song for the hummingbird
And lovingly caresses with his eyes
The crimson Flower with its Blush!

AUM

    Elaborating on the Buddhist concepts of Anicca and Samsara, the passage from the novel Siddhartha resonates with me because of the many levels to its description of Buddhist ideas. Firstly, the excerpt elaborates thoroughly upon the Buddhist concept of Samsara, or rebirth. At first, one might notice that the quote deeply describes that it takes thousands of lifetimes to reach a state of happiness, and these lifetimes often strongly contradict with each other. All of this depends on the Buddhist idea of Karma. Similar to other Eastern religions, Karma is the idea that all actions are the results of former actions which have generated either positive or negative karma. This idea plays a substantial role in the Buddhist religion, as the nature of one’s rebirth…
