Dege Kangyur. Facsimile of the parpud or 'first fruit' printing of the 1733 blocks, meaning it was pressed before later changes were made to the blocks. Produced under the patronage of the Dege King Tenpa Tsering. Chief editor was Palpung Tai Situ Chokyi Jungne in 1733. One of the first editions of the Tibetan canon to be widely distributed, and is almost universally praised for its clarity. Editors in India made numerous changes in preparation for this edition, printed 1976-1979.
