Shantideva (Sanskrit: Śāntideva; ; ; (モンゴル語:Шантидэва гэгээн)) was an 8th-century Indian Buddhist monk and scholar at Nalanda. He was an adherent of the Madhyamaka philosophy of Nagarjuna. ==Biography== The ''Zhansi Lun'' of the East Asian Mādhyamaka identifies two different individuals given the name "Shantideva": the founder of the Avaivartika Sangha in the 6th century and a later Shantideva who studied at Nalanda in the 8th century and appears to be the source of the Tibetan biographies. Archaeological discoveries support this thesis.〔(Banglapedia: National Encyclopedia of Bangladesh )〕〔(Bodhicaryāvatāra Historical Project ) 〕 Two Tibetan sources of the life of Shantideva are the historians Buton Rinchen Drub and Tāranātha. Recent scholarship has brought to light a short Sanskrit life of Shantideva in a 14th-century Nepalese manuscript. An accessible account that follows the Butön closely can be found in Kunzang Pelden, ''The Nectar of Manjushri's speech''. Shantideva was born in the Saurastra (in modern Gujarat), son of King Kalyanavarman, and he went by the name Śantivarman. According to Pema Chödrön, "Shantideva was not well liked at Nalanda." After being goaded into giving a talk to the entire university body, Shantideva delivered ''The Way of the Bodhisattva''.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shantideva」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
