Nearly every encounter Santiago has contains a lesson for him, if the boy is observant enough to perceive it. Even the thief who stole his money in Tangier had a lesson for Santiago: Read the conversation on pages 84-85 between Santiago and his new friend, the camel driver. What life lesson is the camel driver trying to impart to the boy? As you read about Santiago’s response to the appearance of the oasis on the horizon, do you see evidence that Santiago has internalized the bit of wisdom offered by the camel driver?

Answer:

The camel driver is trying to help Santiago to discover his internal richness and purpose in life. Santiago needs to learn how to get rid of vanities and find purification.

Explanation:

According to the description of what could happen in the oasis as a complete lifestyle, Santiago describes the situation as something that good knows should not be a comfort zone. Staying in the oasis to enjoy an easy and calm life is not the best option for him, since he will always be thinking about how his life would have been if he had simply continued on his way to discover his buried treasure.
