In the Buddhist thought, the Sambhogakâya , body of happiness , is one of the Trikâya, the three bodies of the Bouddha. Also called body of (D) pleasure , it can be expressed by the accumulation of merits. It is perceptible only by the Bodhisattva S of the tenth ground. This body is associated with the word of Buddha and represents the ultimate state of achievement. That which has such an achievement can save all the beings which see it cycles of reincarnations and sufferings.
