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 priest who was revered as one of the three great Dharma teachers of the Liang dynasty (502-557) in China, the other two being Fa-yün and Chih-tsang. In 482 Seng-min went to the capital, Chien-k'ang, where he studied under T'an-ching at Chuang-yen-ssu temple. He also received instruction from Seng-jou, Hui-tz'u, and other eminent priests. He later became renowned for his lectures on The Treatise on the Establishment of Truth, the Wisdom sutras, and the Shrimala Sutra
