A number of precious texts, along with their great wisdom traditions, are on the brink of extinction in different parts of the world. Many of such works
have already been lost and cannot be recovered. For those texts that still remain, Nitartha is dedicating its resources to preserving them through publications.
Our
initial projects are directed at publishing the important works
written by scholars and adepts from
the Nyingma
and Kagyu traditions .
This heritage
is presently available, but unless we work rapidly, it will be but
a brief explosion of light which will soon disappear into obscurity.
Below is a list
