Tulku Thondrup Rinpoche

Post by Herb »

I am considering buying the book, Boundless Vision, which is translated by Tulku Thondrup Rinpoche. At first I thought the translator was Tulku Thondup Rinpoche, until I saw the addition of an “r” in his name. Can anyone tell me if the translator’s name is misspelled on the book or if this is two different people? You can find the book on Amazon if you’d like to check it out.

Thank you, Herb

"Tulku Thondrup Rinpoche's translation has been edited by Keith Dowman". It is translated by Tulku Thondrup but then edited by Keith Dowman and not everyone is happy about that.

it is a sad story. i heard that James Low, Tulku Thondup (sprul sku don grub) and the Khordong community who paid Keith Dowman to translate and edit this text, did not give their permission to publish the book, because the translation is incorrect and the text should not be freely accessible
