無著
Asaṅga (Wúzhuó), c. 4th century CE.
The elder of the two founding brothers of the Indian Yogācāra school (with his younger half-brother Vasubandhu 天親 / 世親). Traditionally said to have received the foundational Yogācāra texts directly from the bodhisattva Maitreya 彌勒 in Tuṣita heaven and transmitted them on earth. His authorship is associated with the Yogācārabhūmi-śāstra, the Mahāyānasaṃgraha, the Abhidharmasamuccaya, and the prose-portion (upadeśa) of several Maitreya-attributed verse-texts. His version of the Vajracchedikā vyākhyā (Yìjìng’s Chinese T1514) is one of the two principal Indian commentaries on the Diamond Sūtra.
