United Buddhist Foundation

1. Our website is continually updated with modern technology and provides tools to support Buddhist study and research. All of our sutra translations are freely accessible to anyone with an internet connection. 2. The Buddhist books for which we serve as authors, translators, or compilers are published as free electronic editions. 3. Our publications may also be printed by other Buddhist organizations for free distribution, without any restrictions. For this reason, we must support our full-time religious translator and writer, who is dedicated entirely to this work. Through these efforts, we aim to share the Buddha's teachings widely and contribute to peace in the world-beginning with each individual, not only through governments. 4. We also reprint valuable Buddhist works originally published 50 to 80 years ago, making them available again to students and scholars of Buddhism.
