སློབ་དཔོན་རྒྱལ་བའི་སྲས

Jinaputra (Tib. Slob dpon Rgyal ba'i sras) was an Indian Buddhist scholar and student of Dharmapāla. Four works are attributed to him in the Tengyur: a subcommentary on the bodhisattva precepts (Bodhisattvaśīlaparivartatīkā), two commentaries on Asaṅga's Abhidharmasamuccaya (Abhidharmasamuccayabhāṣya and Abhidharmasamuccayavyākhyā), and a commentary on a praise of the Three Jewels (Triratnastotravṛitti).

Bodhisattva - A person who seeks enlightenment for the sake of others. In Mahāyāna Buddhism, a bodhisattva is a compassionate being who is training on the path to buddhahood and aspires to eliminate the suffering of all beings and take all sentient beings to the state of enlightenment. The Mahāyāna sūtras including those on buddha-nature generally have bodhisattvas as the main audience or interlocutors for the Buddha's discourses. Skt बोधिसत्त्व  Tib བྱང་ཆུབ་སེམས་དཔའ།  Ch 菩薩
