Siddhartha Body Paragraph

Intro: Siddhartha always believed that he did not have the ability to learn from others, and is only able to learn from him. Many ponder over his beliefs and come to the conclusion that Siddhartha did, in fact, have teachers along his journey to enlightenment. His teachers are not formal educators that taught in a classroom. They are normal people with normal lives that guided the headstrong, Siddhartha into learning a variety of life skills that broadened his horizons and eventually reach enlightenment.

Kamala and Siddhartha Jr., Siddhartha's lover and biological son, are the main subjects that educate Siddhartha on how to love. Kamala, Siddhartha’s former lover, helps Siddhartha skim the surface on the topic of love. She and Siddhartha have a conversation prior to Siddhartha leaving to reevaluate himself with his main focus in life. “You are the best lover,’she said thoughtfully, ‘I ever saw.

Siddhartha's son guides him into hitting the soul and main understanding of love.

Kamaswami, the merchant, and Kamala attempt to direct Siddhartha into strengthening his ability to become a businessman. Kamala introduces Siddhartha to Kamaswami, the richest merchant in the city, who will teach him the craft of business. “You are expected at Kamaswami, he is the wealthiest merchant in the city. If he likes you, he will take you into his service.” (49). Kamala helps Siddhartha find a job and guides him into the business world. Kamaswami is the one that tries to teach his apprentice the ways of the merchant world. “From you, I have learned the price of fish and how much interest one can demand when one lends money. This is your science. From you dear Kamaswami, I have not learned how to think; you should rather learn from me.” (57). Kamaswami teaches him all he knew about the merchant life, yet Siddhartha has yet to learn something of value from him. Although Siddhartha fails to master Kamaswami’s craft, it gives Siddhartha the idea to return to his path of
