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 Wisdom
法慧菩薩 ( Jpn Hoe-bosatsu)
One of the four great bodhisattvas appearing in the Flower Garland Sutra, the other three being Forest of Merits, Diamond Banner, and Diamond Storehouse. The preaching of the Flower Garland Sutra is described as occurring in eight successive assemblies in seven different locations, beginning at the place of Shakyamuni Buddha's enlightenment and then shifting to various heavens. At the third assembly, held in the Heaven of the Thirty-three Gods, the bodhisattva Dharma Wisdom expounds the doctrine of the ten stages of security, the eleventh through the twentieth of the fifty-two stages of bodhisattva practice.
