This is the Lam Rim South Africa 'download' page for the visit of Ven. Geshe Damcho Yonten. Here we have copies of the texts that have been used in conjunction with Geshe-la's teachings. Also, there are a few introductory leaflets about different aspects of Buddhism.

These files are in Adobe Acrobat format. This allows you to view and print them with Adobe Acrobat, free on most computer magazine CDs or from the Adobe web site. If you wish to view the files within Internet Explorer, just left click. If you want to download the Acrobat files without displaying, just right click the link and select "Save Target As ...". The latter option is usually the better of the two.


Booklets for Ven. Geshe Damcho Yonten's Teachings
