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.

A very rich brahmin once visited the Buddha clad in a coarse cloak.
When asked why he was thus clothed, he said that his four sons, with their wives, had thrown him out of his house.
The Buddha taught him a series of verses to be recited at the brahmin assembly, when his sons would be present.
The sons realized their folly and took him home and looked after him well.
The brahmin went back to thank the Buddha. S.i.175f.
