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.

Ādibrahmacariyaka-Sīla: 'Morality of genuine pure conduct', consists in right speech, right bodily action and Right livelihood, forming the 3rd, 4th and 5th links of the 8-fold path see: Sacca IV.3, 4, 5; cf. Vis.M I. In A. II, 86 it is said:
With regard to those Moral states connected with and corresponding to the genuine pure conduct, he is morally strong, morally firm and trains himself in the Moral rules taken up by himself. After overcoming the 3 Mental chains ego-belief, skeptic Doubt and Attachment to mere rules and ritual; see: Samyojana he becomes one who will be 'reborn 7 times at most' see: Sotāpanna and after only seven times more wandering through this round of rebirths amongst men and divine beings, he will put an end to Suffering.
