Buddha

"...The holy Om that meant the perfect of perfection. And the moment the sound Om touched Siddhartha's ear, his slumbering spirit suddenly awake and recognized the foolishness of his actions"(75 hesse).
          Moment of recognition for Siddhartha. The Om relaxes Siddhartha and brings him nack to realize how foolish he has been. I like this quote because it is that moment of awakening for Siddhartha.

" 'You will learn this' said Vasudela 'but not from me. It was the river that taught me to listen, and it will teach you as well. It knows everything, the river, and one can learn anything from it"(89 Hesse).
          I think by being at peace and taking in nature you can learn anything. Well that is what Vasudave is saying. peace and paitenes will help you be capable of taking in and learning anything.
