Appearances
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.

appearances: T. nang wa. Literally, ‘lighting up’ Phenomena . Every thing we perceive in the World, beings, situations - are projections of the Mind and in essence no other than the expanse of pure awareness. All appearances (Mental and sensory phenomena) arise from a single source clear of the Mind - its dynamic Power. Manifestation derives from the same root as mani.

Ignorance and attachment of the real situation support the foment of dualistic views, the intertia of karmic obscurations and negative habit patterns; appearances, including the perceiver are viewed dualistically and not recognized for what they are.
Pure appearances are an expression of the dynamics of primordial wisdom: undisturbed by the obscuring operations of duality and world- forming karmas.
Appearances (snang ba) : the world of outer phenomena. Although these phenomena seems to have a true reality, their ultimate nature is emptiness. The gradual transformation of our way to perceive and understand these phenomena correspond to the various levels of the path to enlightenment.
