A few years (4?) ago I came across a very simple book about Buddhist observances. It was online, and mainly aimed at Himalayan Buddhists, helping them to keep on the right track. I covered things like how to prostrate, make offerings and so forth. I even (2 years ago?) recommended it here!
But now I can't find it, or even remember the name. Can any kind person jog my memory?
TIA, of course!

true dharma is inexpressible.
The bodhisattva nourishes from bodhicitta, through whatever method the Buddha has given him. Oh joy.
