Flourishing the Jonang Tradition
The objects in this treasury represent generations of Buddhist knowledge, wisdom, craftsmanship, devotion and realization. Preserving these traditions requires more than simply collecting beautiful objects—it requires supporting the people, practices, and projects that keep them alive. Rather than distributing profits to outside beneficiaries, Tantric Treasures reinvests its proceeds into Dzokden for the creation of additional authentic art and treasures needed to keep these transmission alive.
This includes:
• Translating and publishing authentic Dharma texts and practice manuals
• Commissioning traditional thangkas and sacred works of art
• Creating and preserving rare practice supports and ritual objects
• Supporting traditional artisans and monastics
• Developing educational resources that make Dzokden Dharma teachings, specifically of the Jonang Kalachakra lineage, more accessible around the world
These efforts are part of the broader activities of Dzokden and the vision of Shar Khentrul Jamphel Lodrö Rinpoche, dedicated to the flourishing of the Jonang Shambhala Kalachakra tradition and contributing to a Golden Age of peace.
