Depth Charge! Tackling Primordial Forces Holding Us Back
About this episode
Sangharakshita gave this previously unreleased and, rather famously, off-the-cuff talk at the London Buddhist Centre in 1979. In this excerpt we hear about Padmasambhava's principle work of subduing the demons obstructing the establishment of the Dharma in Tibet. These demons are primordial forces existing in the depths of the human mind and collective consciousness - primordial forces holding us back need to be tackled with a depth charge! This is an enjoyable and stirring evocation of the great Tantric Guru of Tibet. Excerpted from Padmasambhava Talk given at London Buddhist Centre, 1979.
