Volume two centers on the famous Four Encounters that shake Siddhartha’s sheltered worldview: old age, sickness, death, and the sight of a holy man. Tezuka presents these moments not as simple revelations, but as emotionally charged experiences that provoke fear, confusion, and moral conflict. Siddhartha begins to question the meaning of his comfortable life and the value of power and wealth. At the same time, the struggles of supporting characters continue to unfold, reinforcing the idea that suffering is universal. This volume marks the true beginning of Siddhartha’s inner transformation.
