It’s incredibly evident to the reader that Lord Chesterfield’s son takes advantage of him and this letter is probably Lord Chesterfield’s last effort to guide his son. Lord Chesterfield’s wisdom and core values that he has acquired throughout his life are portrayed into this detailed letter to his son using a variety of rhetorical strategies. In Lord Chesterfield’s introduction to his letter, the atmosphere of the message itself is modest and gentle. He uses his words in such a way that it comes off as if the advice he is going to give is something that his son has grown tired of hearing but Lord Chesterfield is going to share this same piece of advice one last time with his son in a gracious way. One example of Lord Chesterfield’s humble attempt to fill his son with his judgment is through personification: “I know how unwelcome advice generally is;” (lines 5-6).

His father finally agrees the let Siddhartha try his new belief system with hopes that his own life may benefit from the journey of his son. The Buddha, who Siddhartha meets later in the book, tries in vain to introduce a belief system into Siddhartha, and succeeds in convincing Govinda, but cannot convince Siddhartha at first. Kamala, another character in the latter stages of the book teaches Siddhartha a great many things, including the fact that even after his years as a Samana, he can love.

Equality 7-2521 says that “the guiding star is within me” and that it points to just one direction, and that direction is “me”. What is a guiding star supposed to do?
