Kalyāṇadeva

Kalyāṇadeva

कल्याणदेव, དགེ་བའི་ལྷ་

b. 11th or 12th c.

According to Fredrik Liland, nothing further is known about Kalyāṇadeva (Dge ba’i lha), aside from being the author of the Bodhisattvacaryāvatārasaṃskāra, a commentary on the Bodhicaryāvatāra. But his commentary is thought to be not as exhaustive and rich of citations as Prajñākaramati's Pañjikā.
