Books by Thrangu Rinpoche

Books

We carry all of Thrangu Rinpoche's books published in English. Some are out of print, so we carry them in the PDFs of Thrangu Rinpoche section of this website. 

Our prices are lower than those in other third parties such as Amazon because we do not have to pay them $ 4.00 to $6.00 per book to carry Rinpoche's books. We also offer FREE SHIPPING on all books and our other materials.

If you have any problems with any orders, please let us know (clarkjohnson2011@gmail.com).

We share your information with No One. We do, however, send out a newsletter 6 times a year which you can opt out of at any time.
