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.

Yeshi Nyingdak (Tenzin) was born in 1975 in Mussoorie, a small hill station in Utlarakhand, India, which is also known as Queen of the Hill. His father is Lobsang Tsultrim and his mother is Butuk. He is the eldest of five children with three younger sisters and one younger brother. Unfortunately at the age of eight one, of his younger sisters became ill and died. Yeshi Nyendak went to nursery school in Mussooric for two years where he studied primary lessons. Afterwards, he went to Rajipur School. In 1987 he joined Tashi Kyil Monastery and began to read and write the Tibetan alphabet. When he was twelve, he was ordained a monk at Tashi Kyil Monastery. For eight years he studied Tibetan Buddhist philosophy, rituals and prayers. Since that time he has continued to work actively in the monastery, performing Buddhist rituals and being involved in other programs.
