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.

Completion particle, full stop, སླར་བསྡུ་, རྫོགས་ཚིག་
This particle can come at the end of a section of related clauses, a quote or a sentence.
Spelling
The final letter of the last word is duplicated and placed as an extra syllable with an added ོ.
- E.g. འདོད་དོ། །, འདུག་གོ །, བྱུང་ངོ༌། །, ཡིན་ནོ། །, ཐོབ་བོ། །, སྙམ་མོ། །, དགར་རོ། །, འཕེལ་ལོ། །, བྱས་སོ། །, གྱུརད་ཏོ། །.
In the case of the final letter འ་ the ོ is added to the འ་ of the word without a duplicated letter.
- E.g. འདའ་ and འོ་ becomes འདའོ། །.
In the case of no postfix letter, མཐའ་མེད་, an འོ་ is added to the word.
- E.g. འགྲོ་ and འོ་ becomes འགྲོའོ། །.
Example
| དགེ་འདུན་ནི་ས་ཆེན་པ་ལ་གནས་པའི་བྱང་ཆུབ་སེམས་དཔའོ། ། |
| sangha bhumi stay bodhisattva |
| The sangha are the bodhisattvas, [who] reside on the bhumis. |
