since Chogyal Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche and Elio Guarisco passed away, what is the status of this project?

Re: translation of Dra Talgyur and its commentary by Vimalamitra
It never started. It however is my next project, with the encouragement of Adriano Clemente. It is a long text, so, maybe it will be published in four years. I think it has already been translated into French by JLA as far as I know.yagmort wrote: ↑Sun Sep 05, 2021 2:14 pm it was announced some time ago that translation of Dra Talgyur and its commentary by Vimalamitra is in progress.

Apparently as of 2020 the Shang Shung Drataljur project still required 2 to 5 years to complete:

i think this video is from the beginning of the project, circa 2015. Adriano is saying that Elio is only about to begin translation. one year ago covid was already at full swing, Elio passed away in November. ChNNR passed away in 2018. Adriano is talking like none of this happened.

You must be right then. I actually had not heard of Elio’s passing until now.

Re: translation of Dra Talgyur and its commentary by Vimalamitra
This was the first Norbunet update, sent May 27, 2015:
On May 18, 2018, we are given this:
The translation of the source scripture of the entire Dzogchen Upadesha teaching, transmitted by Tönpa Nangwa Tampa, the first one of the twelve ancient Dzogchen teachers.
In the beginning of May 2015 Chögyal Namkhai Norbu gave the Lung-Transmission of the entire root-text and Rinpoche asked the translators of the Ka-Ter Translation Project - the main initiative of the Shang Shung Institute Austria - to make a precise and correct translation of this root-tantra.
The work of translation of the Tantra has already begun !!!!!
Up to now Jim Valby has been collecting the different versions of the text printed in various locations of Tibet and the Himalayas. He is in the final phase of placing side by side these version in Tibetan and in the Wylie transliteration system (a Romanized form) for the sake of comparison during the process of translation.
The actual translation will start in the coming weeks with Jim Valby producing step by step the basic draft supplemented with clarifying notes from the Commentary edited by Chogyal Namkhai Norbu.
Each part of the basic draft will be revised first by Elio Guarisco, and then by Adriano Clemente.
The work on the translation of the root-text will approximately last for one year.
The extensive work of translation of the Commentary edited by Chogyal Namkhai Norbu will begin officially once the Root Tantra has been translated.
On May 18, 2018, we are given this:
Then on January 30, 2020 we are told that Elio is at the time busy doing the "revision, compilation of notes, and introduction to the rough draft translation of the Dra Thalgyur Root Tantra prepared by Jim Valby."Last summer Jim Valby finished the initial draft of the Dra Thalgyur tantra, including hundreds of notes, and it's now being reviewed by Elio Guarisco.

Re: translation of Dra Talgyur and its commentary by Vimalamitra
it is.
Malcolm, will you make use of the work has already done by the original team? will Adriano and Jim continue to be a part of the project or it will be entirely your personal work?

Re: translation of Dra Talgyur and its commentary by Vimalamitra
Starting from scratch. But of course, I will consult Adriano where needed, and I have the support of Lama Chonam, and Tulku Dakpa, who will assist me when I need it.
Re: translation of Dra Talgyur and its commentary by Vimalamitra
Who is JLA, who has translated the text into french?
Thanks!
Thanks!
