Welcome translators, assistants to the lotsawas of our times, and you who are involved in helping the Dharma's journey from the Tibetan language to the West.
This website is yours.
The spirit in which it was created is simple: we give and we benefit from each other's generosity.
The ethics are simple as well: mutual respect and civility.
