Book Description
Originally written in Tibetan in 1986, the first version was first translated into English by Cyrus Stearns and immediately published that same year by the author for private distribution in Nepal.' Due to extreme pressure of time-its author originally needed to have printed copies in hand within just two months-and for lack of the still unpublished Tibetan-Sanskrit dictionary of J. S. Negi, Stearns then could not locate the correct Sanskrit equivalents for many Indian personal names. Nor did he have access to several other now crucial dictionaries and sources.
