Bodhiruci

From Buddha World

A Buddhist monk and esoteric master from North India (6th Century CE). He became very active as a teacher following his arrival in China in 508, and produced translations of 39 works in 127 fascicles, including the Sutra on the Ten Grounds and commentary, and the Shorter Sukhāvati Sutra with commentary. The former text became the chief object of study for the Ti-Lun School of which Bodhiruci is regarded as the patriarch.
