Tibetan language

Quotes[edit]

  • Too often the Tibetan language is seen either as a poor substitute for unfortunately vanished Sanskrit texts, or as a spiritual code whose value lies solely in the message it conceals—with the result that the language itself is neglected as a medium of great range, power, subtlety, and humor.
    • Stephan V. Beyer, The Classical Tibetan Language (1992), page 2external link
