“On the evening of that day, they overtook the Samanas and requested their company and allegiance.They were accepted.” (13)
Siddhartha, and his friend Govinda, flee from their town to become part of the Samanas. Once apart of the Samanas, they are taught how to fast, wait, and think. The Samanas help them realize they are on a much larger, longer, and more sacred journey than they thought. These monks help get them on their way, serving as his supernatural aid.
