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.

Buddha lights bestowed on a large lotus
To save all beings appeared there a boy
Established as prince, the country became prosperous
Through committing sinful acts to obtain renunciation
Learned in all sorts of knowledge and practiced Dharma
Lived in cemeteries, showed miraculous transformations
Tamed evil beings and cultivated Dakinis on the path
Roaming everywhere to spread teachings wide and far
Upon request entered Tibet to establish the first monastery
The root and source of Buddhist Tantra thereby established
Transmitted Tantras in Mandala to twenty-five disciples
Red-robed and white-clothed ones continued the lineages
Essential Sutras and Tantras selected to translate into Tibetan
Dharma treasures thus gathered and stored in snow country
Great Perfection teachings based on original purity of all things
Concealed in Earth, Space and Mind Hidden Treasures
Rainbow body of death-free nature appeared as occasions called for
Disciples of meritorious conditions are all blessed by your compassion
