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.

This is not widely known and is hardly used by lay Shingon Buddhists, but before sitting down in front of the Buddhas, priests use a small amount of powder to rub both hands and around the body to purify oneself while meditating on the Buddhas.
This is the spirit of experiencing for oneself the virtue of the perfection of holding the precepts, which are pervasive like the scent of incense.
