In 1989, Chögyal Namkhai Norbu founded an international institute of Tibetan studies: the Shang-Shung Institute, named after an ancient kingdom of West Tibet which was the cradle of the autochthonous Tibetan civilisation. The Institute is based in Arcidosso, Italy and promotes the safeguarding of the cultural heritage of Tibet through courses on Tibetan language and literature, traditional medicine, astrology and the organisation of conferences and exhibitions. The Institute has a valuable collection of Tibetan texts and an important video and tape collection on the civilisation of Tibet and the Himalayas. Currently there is an intense programme to maintain an inventory and archives of the audio and video material of the teachings of Chögyal Namkhai Norbu. |
