Hi everyone at BWB...

A fun but useful link to share...

You ever notice how there are many "numbers" involved with the Dharma? The 3 vehicles, the 4 Dharma seals, the 5 hinderences, and so-on...

Here is a page that has many of the kinds of "numerical references" one comes across during their study and practice. A good quick reference perhaps...

here's the link (http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=3&ved=0CA0QFjAC&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tibetanbuddhistlex.org%2FBy_t he_Numbers.html&rct=j&q=8+endowments+or+conditions+needed+to+practice+dh arma&ei=KRbOS9_EOML7lwfOl9ihCw&usg=AFQjCNF7uHQioWacMLXf8coBmfrZhBkN4Q)

edit: Um..I posted this in the "general" section, if it needs to move to the "Tibetan" section, then so be it! http://www.buddhismwithoutboundaries.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
