Beginning from a rock, and eventually "evolving" into a human. In our class novel, Siddhartha, in chapter two, he goes on a quest to find his ultimate self. And in doing so, he goes in and out of different bodies and objects. Both of these concepts bring us to the idea of Enlightenment.]]> 2018-04-16 12:47:45 UTC https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252111246 https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252111273 This poem relates to Siddhartha because it explains a life changing moment and how it can bring someone happiness. Siddhartha has multiple life changing moments but one main one was when he decided to go away from the traditional path to enlightenment and do it his own way. Not only did this change his religious views but it also gave him a chance to experience independence since he was away from his best friend, Govinda. Some may see this as a bad thing but he trys to make the best of it since he wants enlightenment. Since he has the right attitude about the situation he can see it as a moment of happiness.]]> 2018-04-16 12:47:50 UTC https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252111273 https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252111412 Loves call describes a couple in a newfound relationship that gradually dwindles as time passes. This poem is tied with Siddhartha and Kamalas relationship because both of them feel an impermeable love. As time moves on, Kamala realizes that Siddhartha never truly loved her, and not really anything for the matter. They both truly never loved each, they simply practiced love. ]]> 2018-04-16 12:48:11 UTC https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252111412 https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252111499 In the poem, it talks about being elated and brought up by another person. This is exactly how Siddhartha feels about Kamala. Also in the poem it talks about death. This relates to Siddhartha and his father's relationship because it "dies" once Siddhartha leave. This is more of a symbolic death than a literal one.]]> 2018-04-16 12:48:25 UTC https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252111499 https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252111641 In chapter 5, Siddhartha was reborn and saw the world for what it truly is. It is comparable to the poem when the narrator is reincarnated again and is in a better life every time. In chapter 5 Siddhartha receives a new outlook on life. This new outlook is like a rebirth. This Infancy is shown in his dream of Govinda.]]> 2018-04-16 12:48:48 UTC https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252111641 https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252112180 In Siddhartha, the breast milk in his dream is the same as the nectar in the poem. He gets a drink of life and is elevated. The nectar repels death, just as Siddhartha does not fear death. ]]> 2018-04-16 12:50:04 UTC https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252112180 https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252112473 This poem relates to Siddhartha in chapter two. Siddhartha was trying to reach the highest state of spirituality. In this he was "dying" and taking the form of other objects such as a bird. This relates to the poem because the character died and rose again as other entities. It also shows a sign of fearlessness. ]]> 2018-04-16 12:50:50 UTC https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252112473 https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252114415 With A Stone I Die it talks about changes you go through to reach your highest point. This is seen in Siddhartha because he tried to skip all these changes to get to the highest point and ended up not succeeding because you have to go through these changes in order to succeed. In the poem it states “Why should I fear? What have I lost by death?” it is saying why should you fear change when it hasn’t done you wrong from this point on so you should embrace it instead of turn away from it which we see Siddhartha doing. ]]> 2018-04-16 12:55:05 UTC https://padlet.com/knmccollum/yuqdpcg8ku09/wish/252114415
