| Jonang Foundation's sites database is an ongoing initiative documenting the contemporary (active) and historical (inactive and/or ruined) sites of the Jonangpa. Text and images for each site are derived from field research in Tibet and from primary Tibetan language source materials. Each site corresponds directly to Jonang Foundation's database on Jonang lineage masters. |
