AP PREP POST 1: SIDDHARTHA

Although I can not answer these questions myself there is a couple free responses on this website!

Also all the responses are in the comment section by students.

Here are two more questions from this website. Great for study questions.

What are some examples of the “4 Nobles Truths” found in this novel?

Suffering is universal.
The cause of suffering is desire (material things).
The cure for suffering is to eliminate desire.
To eliminate desire following Eightfold Path.

What are some examples of Siddhartha following the 8-fold path?  Give at least 3 from the novel so far.

Right conduct
Right speech
Right means of livelihood
Right knowledge
Right intention
Right effort
Right mindfulness
Right concentration

I also found student made questions here

Is Siddhartha wise? He's clearly adept in studying different spiritual creeds, but his arrogance and impatience are still major parts of his personality. Is his drive for spiritual enlightenment enough to make him a wise person? When (if ever) did he cross the line between a precocious young adult to a wise man?

This question reminds me of one that was on the English exam last year. They try to play mind games with you and through you off track, However reinforcing your knowledge of how wise he is by making certain decisions in the story like leaving to move forward instead of back where he doesn't belong is a great example. Sure he has his moments of uncertainty and arrogance but that is a trait of those who have see the world to such an extent others have not.
