Translation and transmission

Translation and transmission:

Textual support has always been considered essential in the transmission of the Buddha’s insight from one culture to another.
Buddhist translators have worked hard to convey the knowledge and wisdom contained in the scriptures to new audiences, thus preparing the ground for the future generations’ realisations.
It is our aim to follow in their footsteps.
