“The Buddhadharma is like genuine water, which has no colour or shape. It is pure and natural. This is genuine wisdom. As translators, you are creating a new container for the water of Buddhism to be translated to a new culture."

"The last thing we want to do is make translations that are objects of reverence but are not used. We must use our translations in study and practice.”

- Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche
