How to Order

We translate a large variety of Shambhala and Buddhist texts. Click on the different categories in the left sidebar to see what is available. Some of these are available to the general public, and some are only available to those who have received the proper transmissions and permissions from a qualified teacher.

Order from Nalanda Translation directly:

To order a text, write to nalandatranslation@gmail.com. Because of the restricted nature of nearly all of our publications, we are unable to offer online shopping except for single sets of the Collected Vajra Liturgies (Daily Chant Book).

Please list the specific titles of texts you wish to order, and we will respond promptly with shipping and payment methods.

Keep in mind, when ordering restricted texts, that we may not know you personally, and it is therefore very helpful if you briefly describe your qualifications for receiving the particular text (the year you attended seminary, abhisheka, or other relevant information). Please feel free to ask us if you are unsure of the restriction level or whether you meet the requirements.

If you can’t find what what you’re looking for on our website, it may be because it is published by Shambhala Media or Shambhala Publications.
