Hello All,

I'm wondering if you could help me with the concept of the 3 Kayas (Bodies) of a Buddha. (I believe I first read this in the "Spiritual Teacher" module...).

So there is 1) The Dharmakaya (Body of Truth);  2) Sambhogakaya (Enjoyment Body);  and 3. Nirmanakaya (Emanation Body). I managed to find out a bit about each one with the help of our friend Google, but just couldn't get a clear sense of what the special sense of each Kaya is, and am having trouble differentiating between the 3. I'm confused. I wonder if you could help me with this, using fairly simple and short explanations -- if possible!

Thank you SO MUCH for helping out this confused Buddhist.

Sincerely,

Linda Hayward
