A staff member uses a glue stick to fix a worn-out ancient
Tibetan classic in Lhasa, capital of southwest China's Tibet Autonomous Region,
Feb. 10, 2012. In 2006, two renowned temples in Lhasa, the Sera Monastery and
the Jokhang Temple, invested three million yuan (about 476,910 U.S. dollars) on
a studio that dedicates itself to the preservation of ancient Tibetan classics.
So far the studio has restored and published 328 classics kept in the Potala
Palace, the Sera Monastery and the Norbu Lingka Palace, covering a range from
Buddhist scriptures to traditional Tibetan medicine, while digital versions over
3,000 classics have been made for future publications.
