In 1964, Guru Deva donated hundreds of texts (sutras, scriptures, commentaries) of which he was custodian to the American Library of Congress in Washington D.C. and other important libraries around the world. The writing systems of these exquisite and invaluable texts are primarily Classical Mongol Bichig with Tutelary images and formal Tibetan Uchän. This is just one example (Classical Mongol Bichig with Tutelary images) from the Guru Deva collection in the Rare Books catalogue of the Library of Congress in Washington D.C.).
