Whether reciting prayers and practical texts in Tibetan, visualizing mantras or individual syllables in Tibetan characters, or listening to a lama’s teachings – we always come into contact with the Tibetan language. This may lead to the desire to delve deeper into this fascinating language. The first step is to learn the Tibetan script and its pronunciation. The aim of this seminar series is to make this possible.
At the first appointment, the 30 letters of the alphabet in Tibetan “print script” (dbu can) and their pronunciation are taught. You then have three weeks to practice the individual letters thoroughly. The following two parts of the seminar series focus on combining letters to form more complex syllables and words.
At the end of the seminar series you will generally be able to read Tibetan texts. This is also the prerequisite for participation in the subsequent course “Introduction to Classical Tibetan”.
Further details about this course will be available here on the Dharmadhara homepage at the end of January.
