If you have sensed the magic around Tibetan Buddhism but don't know where to start, these tips might help.

A total beginner

Terms you might want to search the net for:

Three jewels / three refuges / refuge vows
Bodhicitta / the Bodhisattva vow / two kinds of bodhicitta
Four noble truths
Five heaps
Five Buddha families
Five wisdoms
Six Perfections
Eightfold path
Shakyamuni
Tara
Chenrezi
Mala

In the early weeks of this podcast I included an approximate script, not particularly well edited, on a blog page. For the episode dropped on 4 September entitled “Bad gurus, tosh gurus and good gurus” and for episodes due to be dropped from 18 September onwards, starting with “Jyekundo / Yushu: travelling in East Tibet” there is a transcript file which is much closer to the actual words used.

Note that other distribution platforms do not necessarily pass this on, and if you want to read it you may need to listen on podbean. YouTube has been making its own transcript, which was an unholy mess. I think I have now deleted all of these "auto-generated" scripts, but it will not be possible to retrospectively add properly edited transcripts to episodes prior to September 2024.
