Path Press is a non-profit entity, which handles legal matters and
holds the copyrights of all Ven. Ñāṇavīra Thera’s writings together
with writings of Ven. Bodhesako and Sister Vajirā. It was founded in
Sri Lanka in 1987 by Ven. Bodhesako.
‘Path Press’ was a name of convenience, originally intended to
include those who, through the years, have contributed their various
talents to bring Clearing the Path to realization. Path Press
was not planned to be an ongoing publishing house. However, it now
turns out that there remains sufficient worthwhile material from the
writings of the Venerable Ñāṇavīra Thera to issue other volumes to the
present work; and there are a few other writings, unpublished or now
out of print, which, like Clearing the Path, are of high
quality, worthy of publication or reprinting. Therefore it was
established a publishing house, called ‘Path Press Publications’ (www.pathpresspublications.com).
These writings are probably not commercially viable; nor do they
represent the views of any established sect, school or university which
might sponsor their publication. The idea has been put forward that
inasmuch as Path Press has already published one book of this type it
could use that experience as a basis for issuing those occasional
writings which are of exceptional merit and yet do not attract
established publishers.
If this is to be done, it will require financial support: publishing
is expensive, and we intend to price our books low enough to be
affordable to all who are genuinely interested. We would also like to
distribute copies without charge wherever this is called for (to
selected libraries, to worthy members of the monastic order, and so on).
Therefore the facilities of Path Press Publications can be utilized
to issue these additional writings only with the help of those who
agree with us that this is a worthwhile endeavour, and who are willing
to support it with their contributions. If you would like to
contribute, or to learn more about Path Press or the Publications, or
wish to be put on our mailing list for future announcements, please contact us.
