The article offers a review of the 58th George Roerich Annual International Meeting. The meeting was attended by 34 scholars from Russia and Ukraine who conduct their research in the fields, which did interest the late Yu.N. Roerich, such as Tibet, India and Central Asia. The talks were held on the subjects closely related to the political history, history of art, language philosophy and the history of religion. The scholars analyzed mostly unknown or very little texts, both ancient and medieval, written in Sanskrit, Pali, Tibetan, Nepalese, Chinese, Japanese and other languages. Along with the textual analysis they also offered results of their research in such areas as textual tradition, migration, as well as interpretation and translation into other languages.
