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.

Tsikey Chokling Rinpoche (Wyl. rtsi khe mchog gling rin po che), Mingyur Dewai Doorje, aka Kela Chokling Rinpoche (b. 1953) — Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche's second son who was recognized as an incarnation of Chokgyur Lingpa by the Sixteenth Karmapa. Together with his older brother, Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche, he was educated at Rumtek Monastery, Sikkim, the seat of the Karmapa in exile. In 1975, both lamas joined their father, Tulku Urgyen in Kathmandu, Nepal and established the Ka-Nying Shedrub Ling Monastery where Chokling Rinpoche now resides. He is a tertön and lay practitioner with a wife and four children. His oldest son has been recognized by His Holiness the Dalai Lama as the seventh Phakchok Rinpoche, of the Taklung Kagyü lineage. The youngest son is the reincarnation of Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, Khyentse Yangsi Rinpoche.
