svl is a focused search and indexing service for Buddhist video. We organise recorded teachings and practice material so that people can find what they are looking for without sifting through unrelated results.

Recorded teachings carry their setting, their lineage, and their speaker. When a video is pulled out of that context and filed under a generic label, something essential is lost. svl indexes Buddhist video on its own terms, keeping the title, teacher, tradition, and date close to each recording.

Focused indexing lets us preserve that context. Rather than treating Buddhist material as a niche inside general video search, we build our catalogue around it, so researchers, teachers, and practitioners meet recordings that remain faithful to where they came from.

svl does not favour a single tradition. Lineage neutrality, factual attribution, and respectful archiving guide every entry we make.
