One wise monk's advice on copyrights dhammatalks.net:
THIS SITE DOES NOT HOLD ANY RIGHTS TO ANY DHAMMA MATERIALS
There is nothing right in copy righting the Dhamma. If there is, then there will be nothing left of the Buddhasasana.
THE DHAMMA IS FREE. THE BUDDHA DID NOT HOLD COPY RIGHTS EITHER.
THE SHARING OF THE BUDDHA DHAMMA IS SOLELY FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROLONGING THE BUDDHASASANA THROUGH RELEASE. AND THUS PROLONGING THE ARIYASANGHA.
Holding the right to
- encourage in doing good
- discourage from doing bad
- provide guidance in purifying the mind
does not seem right.
This site neither commercialize nor restrict the sharing of Buddha Dhamma materials.
However, if this sharing does contravene any existing laws or if there are requests from 'authors' or 'owners' of these materials,then these materials will be removed, with understanding & compassion.
MAY ALL HINDRANCES TO THE BUDDHA DHAMMA BE DESTROYED
MAY YOU BE FREE FROM ALL DEFILEMENTS
MAY YOU BE FREE FROM ALL DUKKHA
MAY THE BLISS OF THE CESSATION OF DUKKHA BE ATTAINED
