Without their incredible efforts compiling and transmitting teachings, it is likely that much Buddhist literature would have been lost. It helped break the custom of single lineage teachings which isolated some schools from others, and it established a platform from which people could view all schools with equal respect. In fact Lord Buddha himself forbade his students to criticize teachers and teachings from other traditions and cultures. This is what Rime is all about."
