IN MEMORIAM


THE LATE LAMA Tharchin Rinpoche undertook a thorough proofreading of the edition of The Precious Treasury of Sūtra and Tantra that had previously been published by the Sichuan Nationalities’ Publishing House, and he provided a detailed list of errata. Furthermore, he intended to establish both a college and a retreat center based on The Precious Treasury of Sūtra and Tantra at the seat of its author, Choying Tobden Dorje. To facilitate studies and experiential cultivation in meditation at those institutions, he oversaw the making of a new electronic version of this text from which a new edition was to be printed. Likewise, in order that The Precious Treasury of Sūtra and Tantra might spread throughout the world, he planned for this work to be translated into English and also into Chinese. Indeed, many years ago, he asked the great translator and scholar Lodro Gyatso to translate the synoptic outline and other sections of this work into Chinese. Lama Tharchin Rinpoche’s contribution concerning The [[Precious Treasury of Sūtra and Tantra is of the highest order.

In the midst of his activity in 2013, our merit was insufficient to restrain him, and he departed for another realm. Nevertheless, his wife Pema Dechen, his disciple Eric Colombel, and others are now having the entirety of The Precious Treasury of Sūtra and Tantra printed and distributed in accordance with his wishes. I rejoice in this and offer my heartfelt thanks.
