The seagull spent most of the days alone trying low-level glides. Chiang tells him the section is to “begin by knowing you have already arrived.” This is one of the classic lines in the book. He then becomes friends with Chiang, the wisest seagull, who takes him beyond his previous self education and teaches him how to move instantaneiously to any other location in the universe. Along the journey, he meets another seagull that loves to fly. There is a better world that is found through perfecting knowledge. And one day Jonathan meets two gulls who take him to a “higher plane of existence” in which there is no heaven. The book is full of ideas from the 1970’s in the US like higher consciousness. However, for the Jonathan Livingston Seagull, flight mattered more than food. Therefore, for most Seagulls, what matters is food, but not the flying. This is completely the opposite since most seagulls only choose to learn the simplest aspects of flight, that is, get from the shore in search of food and then back again. This novel amazingly showcases a journey of a seagull that had some faith and choose to take the route that was less traveled by branching out and exploring on his own. Jonathan Livingstone Seagull is a novel written by Richard Bach, an American author.
