Dharma body
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.

Dharma body
法身; (Skt dharma-kaya; Jpn hosshin )
Also, body of the Law. The dharma of dharma-kaya means Law, and kaya, body.
One of the three bodies—the Dharma body, the reward body, and the manifested body.
The Dharma body means the essence of Buddhahood, the ultimate truth or Law, and the true nature of the Buddha's life.
It also means a Buddha per se, whose body is the Law itself. A Buddha of this kind is referred to as the Buddha of the Dharma body or the Buddha in his body of the Law.
See also; three bodies.
