The committee was established in 1993 by Lotsawa Tony Duff at the request of Tsoknyi Rinpoche.  Lotsawa Tony has directed the committee ever since.
  The committee provides oral and written translation services for Tsoknyi Rinpoche and other teachers.  The committee records and archives the dharma teachings of various teachers.
  Lotsawa Tony is a very well known scholar and translator who has spent over thirty-five years of his life fully dedicated to studying, practising, teaching, and translating.  He has been a full-time Buddhist practitioner-scholar since 1973.  He was Tsoknyi Rinpoche’s personal translator during the 1990’s and has translated orally and in writing for many other great teachers during the years.  He has been a member of several translation committees and has published or been involved in the publication of many Tibetan Buddhist texts.
  The committee actively pursues textual translations.  Many books are available on this site both for purchase and for free.  The committee provides the texts of the translations in Tibetan in electronic format where possible.
  The committee has a special interest in electronic publications.  To this end the committee has developed a suite of software for working with the Tibetan language.  Many dictionaries and reference texts are available using the software.
