Remix & reuse
Take it and make something
Everything here is CC0 / public domain. DJs, sample it. Artists, repaint it. Translators, carry it into a new language. Teachers, print it. No permission, no attribution, no asking — the stems are below.
You don't owe anything for any of this. But if you'd rather your work live here— a sharper translation, a human-voiced reading — there's a way to send it back.
Audio, track by track
Narrated MP3s for every section of every teaching — clean source for a mix, a meditation app, a podcast bed. Pull a single track, or grab a whole language as one zip.

How to Decide What to Believe
The text
The plain-English (and Mandarin) source, as Markdown. Retypeset it, fork the translation, feed it to a model, set it to music. This is the canonical source the whole site is built from.
Finished editions
Prefer something ready to read or hand out? The typeset EPUB, PDF, and the chaptered audiobook are on the download page — same CC0 terms.
The license, plainly
All of it — text, audio, art — is released under CC0 1.0, the closest thing to public domain. You can copy, remix, translate, perform, print, and sell what you make. You don't need our permission and you don't need to credit us — though a link back is always kind. Nothing here is owned, and nothing you make from it has to be either.
Made something?
We'd genuinely love to see it — and if you want your work to become part of Plain Dharma itself, the door is open.
