The following is a copy & paste extract from my Evernote, when I took notes on Siddhartha.
*Taken between 9/14/2020 through October 2020
“Truly, nothing in the world has taken up so much of my thinking as this I of mine..”
Hermann Hesse. Excerpt From Siddhartha.
The I being discussed as something you enter/open/immerse in.
The obligatory cycle.
The cycle of human emotion/Imagination/life
And the fact of it “ending”, and coming back into the default former consciousness, being a construct of human natural law.
How he described the I, as a utility on how you perceive.
How he “imagined” being Nature.
And the Natural perception of “the self” being one of the entire world.
No duality with things.
All things are as they are.
To ease those who suffer with life.
The Buddha was a Prince..
With all the power to do anything he dreamed.
And for his realization (consciousness), to surrender to that fact he could, and to be.
And to ease his suffering of the choices he could do with life, and surrender to the existence of life itself.
The “At-Man”..
No matter where you are at, is there a place in time that could’ve existed outside of your own Imagination? Or is there only true intention from the true moment?
And that you where you are “at”, is the one Intended way?
Seeking Deliverance.
Govinda becoming Siddhartha’s pupil.
Returning to him what was taken..
The Son subconsciously being Angry at Samsara.
Finding, not seeking..
Seekers don’t want to find anything.
They wish to seek.
Finders are receiving what they have found.
Not waiting in anticipation…
Realizing it is samsara (a game of life).
And not just the way the world is.
A special person to see the Truth..
And know what is.
The “I” being the thinking point and origination of all thought in the mind.
And the personification of the organ that produces this human ability of imagination.
Seeking your dream, or following and discovering your “I”..
The connectivity of all life forms and the unity of existence on this planet.
Perspective is multilateral.
