Publications

One of the main aims and objectives of LTWA when it was founded in 1972 was to compile, translate, print and publish books and manuscripts on all aspects of Tibetan culture, history, literature, philosophy, traditional science etc. under the LTWA logo. In fulfillment of this objective, the English Publication Department started to function in 1973. Since its inception, the department has been actively engaged in publication activities concerning Buddhist philosophy and other aspects of Tibetan culture.
