Today\u2019s FBA Podcast, \u201cWhy Read the Sutta Nipata?\u201d, by Suriyavamsa, is a thorough and engaging exploration of the why and what of suttas, how they were traditionally passed on through the ages and Kukai\u2019s description of how a sutta works on the rational, imaginative and cosmic-mythological levels. Includes beautiful readings on the themes of: skillful speech, grief and fearing death, humility, pleasure, avoiding arguments and worldly desire, finishing with the much loved \u2018Pingiya\u2019s Praises of the Way to the Beyond.\u2019
