Ong Teng Kee

Hi - good answer - I had assumed that it was a case of not being able to
read Chinese or Tibetan - but of course the Taisho and the various Kanjur
are the places to start for the texts themselves, although it might be
useful to have a good index (the Taisho indices are available of course, and
there is the Repertoire, but some of the catalogues to the various Kanjur
are sometimes a little harder to find).

Cheers
