"Siddhartha" describes the life of a Brahmin noble young man who seeks the true meaning of life. Siddhartha, an aristocratic young man in ancient India, was handsome and intelligent, and had everything that people envied. In order to pursue spiritual peace, he embarked on a journey of seeking Taoism alone. He listened to Buddha Gautama's teachings in Savatti City, met the famous prostitute Kamala in the bustling city, and became a wealthy businessman. The enjoyment of his soul and body reached its peak, but it made him tired of and despised himself to the extreme. After making love with Kamala for the last time, he abandoned all worldly things and came to the river to end his life. At that most desperate moment, he suddenly heard the eternal voice of the river of life... After almost a lifetime of pursuit, Siddhartha finally experienced the harmony and unity of all things, the indestructible nature of all life, and finally integrated himself into the eternity of the moment.
