In nineteenth-century in Tibet, a circle of Buddhist luminaries compiled eclectic collections of texts from a wide range of traditions in order to preserve their distinctive lineages. These collections have been crucial to preserving Tibet's unique tantric heritage in the diaspora. What was the approach to ecumenism among these luminaries? How has this approach shaped Tibetan Buddhism as it has grown and taken root beyond the Tibetan plateau?
