This Episode: The Samanas

Siddhartha, along with his faithful friend Govinda, embraces the ascetic lifestyle of the Samanas. He relinquishes his worldly possessions and practices extreme self-denial, aiming to transcend his sense of self and uncover a deeper spiritual truth. Despite the harshness of these practices, Siddhartha remains unfulfilled, trapped in the repetitive cycle of suffering.
