Sixfold satisfaction
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.

Sixfold satisfaction (Wyl. tshim pa drug ldan) or sixfold contentment during tsok practice.
- satisfaction of the gathered deities as a result of the offerings,
- satisfaction of the practitioners as a result of the vajra food and drink,
- satisfaction of the wisdom beings as a result of the refined essence of nectar,
- satisfaction of the deities of the body mandala as a result of the pure awareness of bliss and emptiness,
- satisfaction of the outer and inner dakinis as a result of melodic song, and
- satisfaction of the arrogant and active spirits as a result of the torma offerings.[1]
