Precepts of perfect and immediate enlightenment
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.

precepts of perfect and immediate enlightenment
円頓戒 (Jpn endon-kai )
Also, perfect precepts. One of the three types of learning based on the teaching for perfect and immediate enlightenment, or the Lotus Sutra. The other two are perfect meditation and perfect wisdom. Dengyo (767-822), the founder of the Japanese Tendai school, adopted the Mahayana precepts, specifically the ten major precepts
and forty-eight minor precepts set forth in the Brahma Net Sutra, and interpreted them based on the Lotus Sutra, known in the T'ient'ai or Tendai doctrine as the teaching for perfect and immediate enlightenment, or perfect
teaching. He thus laid the foundation for the establishment of an ordination platform for administering the precepts of perfect and immediate enlightenment.
