Kuan Sher Yin
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.

Kuan Sher Yin: This is another name for Kuan Yin Bodhisattva. These are Chinese names for Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva. She is also called Perceiver of the World's Sounds. Kuan Yin Bodhisattva was originally depicted as male. From approximately the 10th century on, in China the figure of Kuan Yin Bodhisattva with feminine facial traits became predominant. For purposes of convenience, we use the word "she" or "her" to refer to Kuan Yin Bodhisattva. However, you should bear in mind that no Bodhisattva can ultimately be classified as being either male or female. She actually became a Buddha long ago. Her Buddha name is Zheng Fa Ming (Correct Dharma Realization) Tathagata.
