Dharma Collection

What is 'dharma'?
It's an ancient Sanskrit word and its meaning depends on the context. Generally it means 'truth' or 'knowledge'. But written with a capital letter - Dharma - usually means 'teachings of the Buddha'. And such is its meaning in this case.

So this is my collection of Buddhist teachings. In majority these are books (*.pdf), but also images (*.jpg), lectures (*.mp3) and videos (*.mp4). All these things i have collected over the last thirty years and come from various sources - mainly bookstores and libraries, but some of them i obtained by attending lectures and initiations, and some founded in internet.

At some point - when quite a lot of this has accumulated - i began to organize the library for my own use and convenience. But later - because of importance and rarity (often inaccessibility) of such materials and also being under its influence - i decided to make it public. Not that i was going to throw pearls before swine. It was rather from the inner need of doing something good. And this (library) is the best thing i have to offer. I'm aware that subjects raised in these works are very unpopular. Hardly anyone is interested in it. Someone really must be in great need, if searching for such things. Now one will have better chances to find.

This Dharma Collection is still work in progress - i have published only one-tenth part so far (on my webpage), and new things are still coming. So this probably will have no end.
