    Tantric Buddhism - The jewel, the lotus and the diamond thunderbolt.

    Tantric Buddhism uses symbols and imagery to express the qualities of the enlightened mind. Beautiful and multi-faceted, they point us to our direct experience and are designed to wake us up!

    You are warmly invited to this evening of Bristol Young Buddhists, led by Vimalavajri. The symbols of the jewel, lotus and vajra will be introduced and we’ll explore them through meditation and reflection.  Do join us!
