Free Buddhist AudioOur FBA Podcast this week, \\u201cThe Buddha and Friendship,\\u201d by Vajratara, begins by looking at how the symbols of the individual spiritual journey is really a story about a network of relationships. Every symbol is born out of relationship.\\xa0 It\\u2019s living tradition that gives confidence, it\\u2019s not about your own individual practice \\u2013 your own individual practice is just a part of the Buddhist tradition and the Buddhist community.

With references to Indra\\u2019s Net, from the Avatamsaka Sutra, Vimalakirti Nirdesa Sutra and descriptions of the Bodhicitta, Vajratara delivers an inspiring and engaging look at how our collective practice is essential for the arising of the Bodhicitta.
