Good news! The complete Yungdrung Bön Kangyur has arrived in Russia! This is no small achievement. The Yungdrung Bön (Eternal Teaching) Research Centre of Tibetan Religion and Culture in Russia «Исследовательский центр Юнгдрунг Бон (Вечное учение)» asked FPYB for help in obtaining a set of the Yungdrung Bön Kangyur in Uchen in western book-style deb-form rather than the traditional Tibetan pecha. It’s taken months of complicated negotiations, but we’re delighted the books are safely with the Research Centre in Russia now. May the Teachings spread to alleviate the sufferings of all sentient beings! Thanks to our friend Khenpo Kalsang Norbu Read more
