| Padma Karpo Translation Committee was established by Lama Tony Duff
to offer others some of the knowledge he has gained during a lifetime devoted
to the Buddhist teaching, and the Tibetan Buddhist teaching in particular: | |
 |
fine translations of a wide variety of the important texts of the Indian and Tibetan Buddhist traditions with special focus on the texts needed by practitioners; |
|
texts especially of the Kagyu Mahamudra and Nyingma Dzogchen traditions, with a special emphasis on the Longchen Nyingthig tradition; |
|
a complete system for creating a digital library of Tibetan texts, reference works, and dictionaries, with specialized software for creating and displaying Tibetan text in pecha format, and searching the whole library in moments; |
|
many ready-made digital reference works for the library, all carefully chosen for study and translation of Tibetan Buddhist texts; |
|
many digital reference works for the study and translation of Tibetan Buddhist texts; |
|
the finest Tibetan-English Tibetan dictionary available both as software for local use and as internet online use; |
|
software tools to aid the process of studying and translating Tibetan Buddhist texts. |

during the 1990’s:
