In the book 'Siddhartha' why does Govinda follow Siddhartha?
I think it was because Siddhartha taught Govinda something he never thought of before. Govinda was a Monk who spent his whole life meditating and attempting to understand the nature of being, he believes nirvana awaits at the end of a journey. Siddhartha says that understanding comes from loving things for what they are. He speaks of a stone, saying that we respect the stone because it will be many things, but Siddhartha is saying that he loves the stone because it has been so many things already, and it will always be/is everything. Thusly the stone is the same as us. Govinda has always been as Siddhartha says a "seeker" he has spent his life in contemplation trying to reach a goal and Siddhartha teaches him that the achievement is in understanding and appreciating the moment, or the rock. Nirvana is within the self, not somewhere else. All things are good because all things are each other. Maybe.
What was Siddhartha looking for?
Siddhartha Gautama, The Buddha, wanted to find out why beings suffer (are discontented) and how to relieve it so that beings can enjoy a happier life.
