Nitartha international Vision
 Nitartha international
was established to help preserve the rare texts and art of Asia, with a primary focus on Tibet. Our aim is not only to save these treasures, but also to make the living traditions of wisdom they embody available to the
world community.Our main work is the preservation
and reproduction of the endangered texts of the East, which are a great source of ancient wisdom that is relevant and beneficial for the modern mind. We
 primarily work with Tibetan texts using today's computer technology to accomplish our goals.
