Did you know...
that no one currently speaks the language that the Buddha spoke? Without translation, what would we know of the Buddha’s teachings?

“Light of Berotsana is engaging in some of the most important and meaningful Tibetan translation work to date. I believe that they are making a historic contribution to the establishment of genuine Buddhadharma in the West.”

« Prayer to Heruka Dudjom Lingpa | Main | Happy Summertime! »
Tuesday
Aug092011

Warmest summer greetings!


Things have been on full speed here at Tashi Chöling for several weeks now. Kathog Getse Rinpoche has just completed a reading transmission, lung, for the text we are now translating that is Pema Lungtog Gyatso’s Chöd commentary, a word-by-word commentary to the Heart Essence of Saraha, a terma of Dudjom Lingpa. We had the opportunity to read along as Rinpoche gave the lung and, hence, could get a glimpse of what is to come. This is an extraordinary treatise that covers all aspects of the path of Secret Mantra and, in particular, Dzogchen. We will be working on this translation each day now until it is complete, which should be sometime next year if all goes well. I won’t be posting for a while as a short retreat is in store; so in the meantime please feel free to contact Lama Chönam through the info address on this website.

And thank you all again for your continued interest and support. We hope and pray to serve the doctrine and all beings as best we can for all the life’s to come.

Tashi Deleg!
Sangye and Lama Chonam
