Our Vision

so that millions of people may come to know that an authentic written collection of the words of the Buddha exists; and millions more may be empowered to engage directly with them. It is about supporting the transmission of authentic Dharma well into the 21st century.

at all levels, to aide in the navigation, research, study, and teaching of this collection. With this, we provide an opportunity for more complete perceptions about Buddhism in general, and allow the richness of the Buddha's legacy to flourish.

in the active study, contemplation, and practice of the texts in this collection. In so doing, we hope to reconnect devoted communities to the root of their lineages and traditions, improving familiarity and relevance with the words of the Buddha.

so that when one receives the words of the Buddha, one is able to do so in ways that resonate with them. This means providing both context and pathways to support the explorations of the open and curious, without hitting paywalls.
