-The 'body of perfect enjoyment.' In the context of the '[[Five Kayas]] of fruition,' ''sambhogakaya'' is the semi-manifest form of the buddhas endowed with the '[[Five Perfections]]' of perfect teacher, retinue, place, teaching and time which is perceptible only to [[bodhisattva]]s on the ten [[Bhumis]]. [RY]
-The [[kaya]]s:  Various aspects or states of [[buddhahood]].  One recognizes two, three, four, or five kayas.
-*Two Kayas: [[dharmakaya]], the absolute body, and [[rupakaya]], the body of form.
-*Three kayas: the ''[[dharmakaya]]'', or absolute body; the ''[[sambhogakaya]]'', or body of divine enjoyment; and the ''[[nirmanakaya]]'', or manifested body.  These correspond to the mind, speech, and body of an enlightened buddha and are expressed as the [[five wisdoms]].
-*Four Kayas: the ''[[svabhavikakaya]]'', or essential body, is to be added to the [[three kayas]] and represents their inseparability ([[dbyer med]]).
-*Five kayas: to the [[three kayas]] one adds the ''[[avikaravajrakaya]]'', the "unchanging vajra body," and the ''[[abhisambodhikaya]]'', "body of total enlightenment." [[Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche]]
