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.

He was one of the main students of Dudjom Rinpoche. He spent a long time in Kongpo and then stayed in Sikkim, where he passed away in 1960. His spiritual consort, Khandro Pema Dechen, went on to become the consort of Dodrupchen Rinpoche.
He was the teacher of Crown Prince of Sikkim, Palden Thondup Namgyal who later became King. His other students included Dhongthog Rinpoche and Tulku Thondup. Jamyang Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö composed several works at his request, especially on the practice of Senge Dongma.
