At www.vrot.org, practitioners and the general public have access to free online streaming of audio talks and selected video excerpts; modestly priced downloads of talks; and options to purchase DVDs, CDs and books. Donations have enabled rapid growth in the amount of materials available, which have increased by fifty percent since the December launch.

Dharma students from all over the world have visited the new publications website, www.vrot.org. Judging from their emails and comments, the emerging availability of the Vajra Regent’s work is filling a need, perhaps long-standing for those who knew him. Advantages to bookmarking the site include access to the regularly rotating free streaming audio and video. Inexpensive audio downloads are in MP3 format and can sync to iPod, iPhone or other MP3 players. For the 20th anniversary of the parinirvana of the Vajra Regent we are pleased to announce that preservation of all the video and audio will be completed by September 2010. As well, we are offering newly archived calligraphies, audio and video for the celebration. For a complete list, please visit the website at www.vrot.org.
