|tolExcerpt=Go Chodrub ('gos chos grub) was born around 755. According to Tibetan scholar Kelzang Dolma (skal bzang sgrol ma) he may have been born in Tsang, at a place called Tanakpu (rta nag phu). He was active in Dunhuang during the first half of the ninth century. He appears to have been a monk, as his name is occasionally recorded as Bande Chodrub (ba nde chos grub). His Chinese name was Facheng 法成.

Go Chodrub enjoyed Tibetan royal patronage, earning the rank of "chief translator" (''shu chen gyi lo tsA ba'') and Master of Long Lineage (''ring lugs pa / chos bcom ldan 'das kyi ring lugs kyi mdun sa''). The king was most likely Relpachen (ral pa chen), who was on the Tibetan throne from 815 to 836. He appears to have been based at Dunhuang's Xiuduo Monastery 修多寺.2

According to the Peking Tripitaka Online Search, there are eight translations in the Tibetan canon credited to Go Chodrub. These include the ''Laṅkāvatārasūtra'' (D 107), which he translated from the Chinese, as well as the Korean monk Woncheuk's (원측 Chinese: Yuance 圓測) ''Saṃdhinirmocanasūtra'' commentary. The latter text, renowned in Tibet simply as "The Great Chinese Commentary" (''rgya cher 'grel pa''), was referenced extensively by Tsongkhapa Lobzang Drakpa (tsong kha pa blo bzang grags pa, 1357-1419) in his ''Essence of Elegance'' (''legs bshad snying po'').

Refers to something that is taught for a specific reason, rather than because it is entirely true.

Along with Madhyamaka, it was one of the two major philosophical schools of Mahāyāna Buddhism. Founded by Asaṅga and Vasubandhu around the fourth century CE, many of its central tenets have roots in the Saṃdhinirmocanasūtra and the so-called third turning of the dharma wheel (see tridharmacakrapravartana).

Along with Yogācāra, it is one of the two major philosophical schools of Mahāyāna Buddhism. Founded by Nāgārjuna around the second century CE, it is rooted in the Prajñāpāramitā Sūtras, though its initial exposition was presented in Nāgārjuna's Mūlamadhyamakakārikā.

The state of being devoid of that which is wholly different rather than being void of its own nature. The term is generally used to refer to the ultimate, or buddha-nature, being empty of other phenomena such as adventitious defiling emotions but not empty of its true nature.

The state of being empty of self, which references the lack of inherent existence in relative phenomena.

Tsen Khawoche's "meditative tradition" of exegesis of the Uttaratantra; it is one of two major Tibetan traditions of exegesis, both stemming from students of Sajjana.
