SIDDHARTHA | An Indian Tale
The novel Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse has been one of my favorite novels since I was a teenager. From this book, I learned a lot about intentional living and simple living. And I started to learn more about Buddhism – I visited Buddhist temples, learned to meditate, and studied Buddhist philosophy. It makes me so happy to return to this book – a book that made me start a happy journey in literature, philosophy, and life.
And I love to listen to this audiobook. Peter Kuhn’s voice and tone are perfect for this uplifting novel. This recording is from LibriVox, an audiobook site I highly recommend. Their audiobooks are free, and if you want to you can volunteer to read and record books for them.
