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.

The Universe The beliefs on Universe is based on the speculation about the infiniteness or the limitedness nature of the Universe. There are four ways these beliefs were expressed: *1. The world is Infinite *2. The world is Limited *3. The world is horizontally limited but vertically unlimited *4. Neither the world is Infinite or Limited, nor the world is not Infinite nor Limited. The source of these beliefs came from two reasons: *1.The frame of mind which formed these belief came from the object of focus of meditation taken by the ascetics who managed to reach a deep level of meditation and came to the conclusion that the world is Infinite (if he used Infinity as the object of meditation), or Limited (If he imaged the Object of his focus as Limited, etc) *2.The people who used logic and thoughts and concluded that the world must be neither infinite nor limited but also neither not infinite nor NOT limited. All of the followers of these beliefs defended and clung on their faith and didn't believe in another faiths.
