Tibetan Buddhist Encyclopedia is now 14 years old
Our Encyclopedia recently received a wonderful opportunity for a major renewal on its 14th birthday . After many years of growing our Encyclopedia had become bit slow and sometimes even decided not to answer when people knocked on the door.
A very big thank you and blessings to Dmytro Rudiy (rudiy.nl) for his great work in upgrading the server, website and all of the infrastructure and helping make TBE fast and reliable again for everyone! 🙏🙏🙏
We kindly ask our readers to help us cover the cost of this important upgrade and also help with the ongoing costs of keeping the Encyclopedia alive and freely available.

Bodhisattva Padmakulodbhava 莲花部发生菩萨 also known as the Vajra of Limitlessness. His name means "one who produced the Lotus Race", & he is limitless in his power to produce. Thus in the Garbhakosa Mandala he is located at the top of the 1st row in the Lotus Court. His flesh is white, & is seated on a red lotus. He holds a stalk of fully bloomed lotus in the left hand, & the right forms a mudra of consolation. Together they represent the confirmation that the possibility for sentient beings to realize full enlightenment is infinite.
His Garbhakosa mantra is: Namah samanta buddhanam ksah dah ra yam kam
