The Son Returns to the Father
Padmavajra explores the Parable of the Return Journey. A parable told by the Arhat Mahakashyapa and other senior disciples of the Buddha. This is their response to the Buddha's revelation. Padmavajra explores the emotive power of the story of a lost son, returning to his father. He places the story in its context, including the nature of Mahakashyapa himself. Above all, Padmavajra places the story in the context of the Bodhisattva ideal.
