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.

Ratnasambhava is the yellow Buddha of the southern quarter. His name means "jewel born". His emblem is the ratna jewel, symbolizing the Bodhicitta, the highest value of the Buddhist. His mudra is dana or generosity, the most fundamental Buddhist virtue. He represents, therefore, both the highest values and virtues of Buddhism.
He is also associated with the Tantric rite of increase, and with prosperity generally.
Ratnasambhava first appears, along with Amoghasiddhi, in the Sarvatathāgata Tattvasaṃgraha Tantra in the late 7th or early 8th century.
