Here's another tour-de-force from Vajratara, looking to approach the great figure of Padmasambhava - the 'Second Buddha' - through his famous meeting with the King of Tibet. As ever, a provocative, fully engaged and fully engaging take on the Dharma and the challenges that face us on the Path. There's plenty to consider in this thoughful interpretation of the central story - with lots of light relief too, as the Refuges are explored with walk-ons from Nirvana (the band!), Samuel Johnson, Scrooge and the Beckhams. Cool.
