Title
Wisdom Publications Online: Non-profit publishers of Buddhist books from all traditions.
Description
Wisdom Publications is dedicated to making available authentic Buddhist works for the benefit of all. We publish translations of the sutras and tantras, commentaries and teachings of past and contemporary Buddhist masters, and original works by the world's leading Buddhist scholars. We publish our titles with the appreciation of Buddhism as a living philosophy and with the special commitment to preserve and transmit important works from all the major Buddhist traditions.
Wisdom Publications is a 501(c)3 nonprofit charitable organization, and all profits are reinvested into the creation of new works. Our titles are distributed worldwide and have been translated into more than thirty foreign languages. We have a backlist of over two hundred titles in print, with over twenty new titles appearing each year.
Wisdom's beginnings were inspired in the late 1970s by Tibetan Lama Thubten Yeshe (1935-84), a teacher renowned for his warm-hearted humor and his grasp of the idiom and mindset of the Western seeker. The earliest titles included Wisdom Energy: Basic Buddhist Teachings and Advice from a Spiritual Friend. With a formalization of publishing operations in London in 1983, the press soon demonstrated its commitment to publishing important works from all the Buddhist traditions, and developed a reputation for high production values.
