Rumors of Gotama the Buddha

News spreads of a man named Gotama, the Buddha, who has overcome suffering and teaches a path to salvation. The rumor reaches the Samanas, and Govinda is eager to hear the Buddha's teachings. Siddhartha, though skeptical of teachings, agrees to go with Govinda to listen, seeing it as an opportunity to leave the Samanas.
