“I can think. I can wait. I can fast.”
Siddhartha realizes that the once disavowed world of appearances are not illusions but actually a manifestation of the Self. This leads him to explore his sexuality for the first time after meeting the beautiful courtesan Kamala who counsels him on the worldly life. I’m reminded of the Charvaka-Lokayata materialist philosophy of hedonism in these chapters.
