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.

Atalaloka – It is believed that one of the sons of the demon architect Maya, Bala, rules this world. When Bala yawned, he created 3 types of women; Swairinis, Kaminis and Pumscalis. Swairinis were women who would get married in their own group, Kaminis were lustful women who would get married to men from any group and Pumscalis were women who would have many partners. This world is a world of pleasure, where when a man enters it, he would be given an intoxicating drink and indulge with the women in this world, with no worries whatsoever.
