Preface
Before review these entries and the
anchor paper, you have to understand these three books and had read them. The
books are the essential of the topic and please always keep in mind that the
project is always connected with the book. Also, this project is to challenge
you to think outside the box. Many topics might lead you to think there is
nothing connected but there is and you just have to think more about it! This
project is done by a student named Jane Lin. She put all the hard work in order
to make this project; all she wants to do is to give a better understanding of
Siddhartha, Oedipus Rex, and the Inferno. The first three entries were to make
for each book. Letter to Siddhartha is for Siddhartha, Book cover is for Oedipus
Rex and lastly instructional manual for the Inferno. Later the last two are
mixed of all three books, which is a very neat and challenging project. Then as
we all know the anchor paper is a synthesis paper for all the work. Please
enjoy this project and make a good use of it.

Dear
Siddhartha,
This is Jane and I have been writing
to you from far away where you are right now. Thailand is where I live and it
is totally different from where you are. The culture, people, and life are just
the opposite of each other. It took me a long time to write this letter to you
because I want to express myself in a short and sweet way. I am trying to
become like you and I want your comments! First of all, how can you make
yourself think outside the box at all time? Isn’t it difficult to be different
than others because you are the only one on this planet earth to act like that?
I am always trying to be unique among other people but found myself the clown
after all. People always think I am crazy in my actions and sit back to laugh
at me. Those people just don’t get the real meaning of all, they are the
surface swimmers and never deep down. I wish sometime I would have the courage
to overcome the evil force of the people that laughed at me.
Everyone has its own philosophy of
life and the reason why leads them to think differently. Your philosophy has
the most special one of all. How did you do that and what did you do to manage
it? Finding ones philosophy it’s hard and to find one of my own it like landing
on the sun. I tried many ways to do, such as meditating under a big oak tree
for a year or stay by the river at all time. However, it didn’t work at all.
Maybe it is the problem of my distracted mind that caused the process not
working. I wish that someday you could visit me in Thailand and answer all the
questions that I have for you. Also teach me any skills that help you become a
successful person.
Sincerely,
Jane
