Dear Vimala Customers, our staff and volunteers will be away through April 15th supporting the 2nd anniversary of Ven. Gyatrul Rinpoche's parinirvana (called a decho) that will be happening at Orgyen Dorje Den in Alameda, California. Hence, most order processing will be paused until after April 15th. Thank you for your patience.

The Tibetan language Pecha Order Department will continue to operate normally. Also, the digital versions of items on our website are always available for immediate download.

Thank you for your understanding and patience during this time.

Best wishes to all of you,  

Your Dedicated Vimala Staff 

When you purchase items from Vimala, you are sponsoring our ongoing projects to sustain and increase the presence of the dharma in this world. Rather than seeing ourselves as a retail business with customers, we see ourselves as keepers of the precious dharma in our archives, making them available to students and practitioners who in turn are contributing to the funds that sustain it. Every 'sale' is thus an auspicious interdependent connection between Vimala fulfilling Venerable Gyatrul Rinpoche's intention to preserve this dharma, and the students who are both benefitting from and supporting this treasury of precious materials. Thank you for taking part in this auspicious connection—may it bring peace and benefit for all beings!
