Reading Room Opens with Live Tours – Sign Up Now!


(2012): As much of Asia celebrates the dawn of the most auspicious year in the zodiac cycle — the Year of the Dragon — 84000 is happy to announce the opening of its free online reading room at read.84000.co. The completed English translations of eight texts from the Tibetan Kangyur are the first to be published. 84000 has partnered closely with the Tibetan Buddhist Resource Center (TBRC) on the development of a secure and user-friendly technology platform for the reading room.
