Sometimes you are on the hunt for more joy, peace, self-esteem, and wisdom, like Siddartha Gautama in the fictional story by Hermann Hesse seeking enlightenment. What did Siddhartha discover?
This story shows Siddhartha was considered to be a Brahman’s son, or that of a powerful king or great spiritual leader, * searching for the meaning of life. Siddhartha’s father shielded him from all negative aspects of life until the day Siddhartha leaves his protective home and sees the miseries of life firsthand.

He learns that wisdom cannot be taught. Knowledge can be taught, but wisdom taught to the unwise sounds like folly. This is why those around you lacking wisdom are so quick to scream, “Heresy!” when they hear wisdom coming from your lips. They are vibrating at such a low energetic frequency that due to either ignorance or indoctrination, it is not possible for them to understand until they cut their own man-made ties to fear.
Fear is the stumbling block to not only knowledge, but also wisdom. If the cup of others around you is already full, nothing more will be able to be poured into their human earthen vessel. They might know or feel that something is missing, but if does not match what they have previously been told, words of wisdom cannot resonate in them. Wisdom slides off of them and their aura like water slides off the back of a duck.
Siddhartha tells his good friend, Govinda, “I have had thoughts, yes, and insights, ever and always. Sometimes, for an hour or for a day, I have felt knowledge within me, just as one feels like within his heart. There were many thoughts, but it would be difficult for me to convey them. You see, my Govinda, here is one of the thoughts I have found. Wisdom cannot be conveyed. The wisdom of sage attempts to convey always sounds like folly.”
Siddhartha says, “I am not the Buddha. Nor am I a saint. I am just a man who has been blessed with understanding of life.”
This quote emphasizes Siddhartha’s humility and his belief that he is not a religious figure, but rather a person who has gained wisdom through his own experiences.
The same is true of you, if you have transmuted ties of fear in your life. People teach to cut ties to fear. Never do that. Instead, transmute the fear inside you into knowledge and increase your thirst for knowledge, the fertile ground for the seeds of wisdom to grow.
Jesus agreed with Siddhartha. Jesus was also aware of Buddhism from all his travels in India in his ages 12-30. In Luke 17:20-21, Jesus tells us that the “Light,” that “Kingdom of God, dwells within us.
