In this episode we explore the 1st chapter of "Old Path, White Clouds" - WALKING JUST TO WALK.
I chose the HERO's JOURNEY as the theme for this chapter, as we are introduced the Buddha's monastic community, and the buffalo boy Svasti, as he begins his new life. What were your takeaways from Chapter 1? I look forward to hearing your feedback and questions at buddhastorypod@gmail.com.
