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.

Anupassanā: Contemplation, deep reflection, profound consideration:
The 4 fold: see: satipatthana.
The 18 chief insights of vipassana
The 7 fold: The seven contemplations:
1: Contemplating constructions as impermanent, one leaves behind the Perception of permanence. 2: Contemplating them as painful, one leaves behind the Perception of Happiness. 3: Contemplating them as not self, one leaves behind the Perception of ownership. 4: Becoming disillusioned, one leaves behind delighting. 5: Causing fading away of lust, one leaves behind Greed. 6: Causing ceasing, one leaves behind creating. 7: Relinquishing, one leaves behind clinging. Pts.M. I, p. 58. - See also Vis.M XXI, 43; XXII, 114.
