| | Vajradhara is the primordial buddha, the dharmakaya buddha. | | | The dharmakaya, synonymous with Vajradhara Buddha, is the source of all the manifestations of enlightenment. | | | Vajradhara is central to the Kagyu lineage because Tilopa received the vajrayana teachings directly from Vajradhara, the dharmakaya buddha. |

| | Dharmakaya - definition of Dharmakaya in Encyclopedia |
| | After the Buddha's parinirvana a distinction was made between the Buddhas physical body, rupakaya; and his Dharmakaya aspect. | | | As the Buddha told Vakkali, he was a living example of the 'Turth' of the Dharma. | | | Despite the growth of the stupa cult in which the remains, or relics, of enlightened beings were worshipped, Buddhism sees such things as symbols of the Truth, rather than the Truth itself. |

| | The Three Kayas |
| | The Nirmanakaya and the Sambhogakaya basically manifest out of Dharmakaya; in other words, both of the form aspects of the Buddha's being are dependent on the formless body. | | | Because the Buddha's Sambhogakaya and Dharmakaya aspects are not historically situated, we cannot attribute any kind of temporality to them. | | | These are the three bodies of Buddha's being or enlightenment. |

| | Understanding the details about dharmakaya according to tantra gives you definite faith that Buddha is on your crown, even if you have not visualized him there. | | | At the result time, the holy mind and the holy body, the dharmakaya and the rupakaya, are unified. | | | Dharmakaya itself is the subtle transcendental wisdom completely purified of even subtle dual view, which one-pointedly and inseparably abides forever on the emptiness of all existence, like pouring water into water. |

| | In Tibetan Tantric Buddhism this is called "the Dharmakaya Light." Dharmakaya Light is the basis of Dharmakaya, the Buddhist terminology for the universe. | | | In Buddhism, Dharmakaya is the collection of all Dharmas, i.e., all things as they are. | | | When we talk about this Dharmakaya Light experience as the Enlightenment experience, it does not mean that the goal of Buddhism is to practice meditation to such an extent that one is very close to death and then remains useless. |

| | When we live wholly in the dharmakaya, and as it were rise by the sambhogakaya and nirmanakaya and find rest and oblivion in the dharmakaya, then we are pratyeka buddhas. | | | The buddha of compassion leaves behind him in attaining dharmakaya or nirvana, a bodhisattva, another monad in his constitution, which bodhisattva, remains either in sambhogakaya or nirmanakaya. | | | Now the bodhisattva of the buddha is fully conscious, has full knowledge that his higher part has become buddha, has entered dharmakaya, has entered nirvana, and the bodhisattva is capable and in fact constantly does keep in intimate synchrony, that is identity of spiritual feeling and thought, with the buddha. |

| | The point is not whether we should be open-minded about Dharmakaya or other flavours of Thai Buddhism. | | | However, as human beings we may question whether the Dharmakaya movement, especially in its Pathum Thani manifestation, is serving the genuine spiritual needs of the Thai people or merely capitalising on the confusion created by capitalist development, cultural upheaval, and urbanisation. | | | The point is that the Dharmakaya movement offers itself as legitimate Theravada Buddhism, yet undermines a central teaching of the Theravada canon. |

| | The Evolution of the Concept of Buddha |
| | The author of the Mahaprajnaparamita-sastra summarized teachings on the concept of Buddha in the different schools as well as in the early Mahayana sutras and explained further that the dharmakaya is the real Buddha who always preaches the Dharma to the great bodhisattvas, while the rupakaya is only a transformation body. | | | However, the Mahasanghikas believed in a lokottara Buddha who is omnipotent and omniscient, while the historical Buddha is regarded only as a transformation body. | | | In this dissertation, I will investigate the origin and formation of the trikaya theory, with special attention given to the problem of how the concept of the dharmakaya was developed from the collection of the teachings in early Buddhism to the cosmic body in Mahayana Buddhism. |

| | Shamballah - the evolution of a myth |
| | It is not only Christianity that refers to the "Three Manifestations" -- or the "Three Bodies", The Buddhist model refers to the three kayas -- Dharmakaya, Sambhogakaya, and Nirmanakaya - often referred to as the "Bodies of the Buddha". | | | Dharmakaya however gives rise to the deterministic aspects of Sambhogakaya and Nirmanakaya. | | | For one who has read some of the Philosophy/Psychology of Buddhism and do not just rely on the New_Age_Esoterica of the Western Theosophy movement, it can be easily be seen how these hopes, dreams and perceptions evolved. |
