 * This is the place where I will write about the journey I follow to self-. My goal is to gain wisdom and takes steps towards enlightening myself. I will be following the journey of, the title character of Hesse's Siddhartha, as a model for my own journey. The steps I have follow. **

With The Samanas The Assignment To get a feeling for how the Samanas, Indian ascetics that are found in the novel, try to reach enlightenment, we gave up some thing for a week. I chose to give up my pillow. Getting Started The first night of my journey was not good to say the least. I slept a total of three and a half hours with out my pillow. That day I was...well a little grumpy. I realized my pillow was a little more important to me than I had first assumed. Also how important it was for balance during sleep.

== =Awakening = = I drew this because I think it really represents the setting that Siddhartha went through in "Awakening". I pictured this to be the place that Siddhartha would have woken up to after his thirty days of meditation. As Hesse describes the setting, "the world for the first time. The world was beautiful strange and mysterious. Here was blue, here was yellow, here was green, sky and river, woods and mountains, all beautiful, all mysterious and enchanting, and in the of it, he, Siddhartha, the awakened one, on the way to himself." This is what Siddhartha first saw after he became awakened. =
