Kohn invites readers along Siddhartha’s spiritual journey—experiencing his highs and lows, loves and disappointments along the way. We first meet Siddhartha as a privileged brahmin’s son. Handsome, well-loved, and growing increasingly dissatisfied with the life expected of him, he then sets out on his journey, not realizing that he is fulfilling the prophesies proclaimed at his birth. Siddhartha blends in with the world, showing the reader the beauty and intricacies of the mind, nature, and his experiences on the path to enlightenment. Sherab Chödzin Kohn’s flowing, poetic translation conveys the philosophical and spiritual nuances of Hesse’s text, paying special attention to the qualities of meditative experience. Also included is an extensive introduction by Paul W. Morris that discusses the impact Siddhartha has had on American culture. Review: Simply Awesome. - Extremely well translated! Review: Siddartha - This is one of those works of literature that everyone should read in their lifetime. It is the story of a young man's journey to enlightenment and the experiences he has along the way. I love this book because it makes me think, it forces me to look at myself from a new perspective. It opens my mind up to the material world and the spirituality that surrounds all of us whether we are aware of it or not. Reading Siddartha is not just "reading a book", it is a step in expanding your mind and enriching your heart and soul. Definitely put this book on your must read list. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,473,050 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2,354 in Classic American Literature #21,996 in Classic Literature & Fiction #62,470 in Historical Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 82 Reviews | ## Images ![Siddhartha: A New Translation (Shambhala Classics) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81kkJO2rJML.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simply Awesome. *by B***G on September 29, 2025* Extremely well translated! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Siddartha *by T***G on September 12, 2014* This is one of those works of literature that everyone should read in their lifetime.

This then lead me to Demian, Narcissus and Goldmund (my fave) and all the rest culminating in Hesse's best work...Das Glasperlenspiegal or The Glass Bead Game. Siddhartha is the the story of Buddha written by a 20th century European white male. This little book will certainly get you started. It started my path fo me...I am now 56 and am currently reading Wings To Freedom by Yogiraj Gurunath Siddhanath and Shankara's Crest-Jewel of Descrimination. I can't say that I've reached the Cristos yet but I am one with all...for sure. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.mx/products/76447657-siddhartha-a-new-translation-shambhala-classics](https://www.desertcart.mx/products/76447657-siddhartha-a-new-translation-shambhala-classics) --- *Product available on Desertcart Mexico* *Store origin: MX* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
