What are the Claims of Sacrifice Made by Siddhartha as Herman Hesse Depicts

What are the claims of sacrifice made by Siddhartha as Herman Hesse depicts

As a great Buddha once said,“the sacrifice which causes sorrow to the doer of the sacrifice is no sacrifice. Real sacrifice lightens the mind of the doer and gives him a sense of peace and joy. The Buddha gave up the pleasures of life because they had become painful to him.” This same concept applies to Siddhartha. Siddhartha has a lifelong journey to become enlightened. He gave up the people he loved and his own free will to attempt to achieve this nearly impossible goal. Siddhartha goes on journeys that are painfully and glum, but he is driven enough to see through this and keep persuading. In Siddhartha, Herman Hesse depicts Siddhartha as someone who is willing to make great sacrifices to progress and eventually reach his eternal goal of enlightenment.
