Goodbye Govinda

PART 1

Govinda: What should i do? i have never been without Siddhartha.

Bobo: (me) Govinda my advice for you would be to move on and continue your life. You would have eventually separated off from Siddhartha at some point in your life. Now it's time for you to figure out what and who you want to become without the guidance of Siddhartha. Siddhartha realizes that it's time for you to move on with your life. He says to you: "Govinda, my friend, you have taken the step, you have chosen your path." Siddhartha has a different view of his life than you do and you have to accept that. Govinda, you should become the person you want and nothing less than that. Even though Siddhartha is no longer with you that does not mean you cannot follow your dreams.

PART 2

I think that Govinda is having a hard time dealing with the loss of Siddhartha. Siddhartha was his guidance and Govinda followed him all throughout his life. It was hard to detatch himself from Siddhartha because he felt he was lost without him. At first it was hard for Govinda to accept the fact that Siddhartha had chosen a different path but I feel after a while he has gotten used to not constantly being with his fellow friend. Siddhartha is moving on because he still feels he has not found his true self. Govinda feels he has already found his place in life by swearing his alleigance to the Buddha and so they say their last goodbyes.
