Śubhakarasiṃha
Śubhakarasiṃha (637-735 CE) () was an eminent Indian Buddhist monk and master of Esoteric Buddhism, who arrived in the Chinese capital Chang'an (now Xi'an) in 716 CE and translated the ', better known as the ''Mahāvairocana Sūtra''.〔Baruah, Bibbhuti (2008) ''Buddhist Sects and Sectarianism'': p. 170〕 Four years later another master, Vajrabodhi (670-741 CE), and his pupil Amoghavajra (705-775 CE), would arrive and proceeded to translate other scriptures, thus establishing a second esoteric tradition. Along with these other masters, Śubhakarasiṃha was responsible for bringing Esoteric Buddhism to the height of its popularity in China.〔Baruah, Bibbhuti (2008) ''Buddhist Sects and Sectarianism'': p. 170〕
==Life in India==
According to his biography, Śubhakarasiṃha was born as the son of royalty in a northeast Indian kingdom, and ascended to the throne as king when he was thirteen years old. Although emerging victorious from a power struggle with his older brothers, he turned over his position to his oldest brother and entered the monastic life. He became well known for his supernatural abilities, and finally settled in Nālandā where he met the master Dharmagupta. After being instructed by him, Śubhakarasiṃha became a traveling teacher, and was then told by Dharmagupta to go further east to China.〔Baruah, Bibbhuti (2008) ''Buddhist Sects and Sectarianism'': p. 170〕
