- Chandragomin (Skt. Candragomin) was an Indian Buddhist lay scholar and poet from the Varendra region of Eastern Bengal. The Tibetan tradition believes challenged Chandrakirti. According to the Nepalese tradition, Chandragomin's student was Ratnakīrti. Chandragomin was a teacher at Nalanda Monastic University during the 5th century. It is unclear when Chandragomin lived, with estimates ranging between 5th to 6th-century CE, but his position at Nalanda signifies he lived during the 5th century. In the Buddhist records, Chandragomin is described as the one who debated Candrakīrti (Devanagari: चन्द्रकीर्ति, Tib. Dawa Drakpa) the Arya Tripitaka Master Shramana who was the Khenpo at Nalanda Mahāvihāra Monastery. Their debate was said to have continued for many years. Chandragomin held the Chittamatra (consciousness-only or Yogachara) view, and Chandrakirti gave his interpretation of Nāgārjuna's view, eventually creating a new school of Madhyamaka known as Prasangika. This Nalanda tradition school is known as Prāsaṅgika Madhyamaka or rendered in English as the "Consequentialist" or "Dialecticist" school. According to Thrangu Rinpoche, Chandragomin was slow in the debate but always had the right answers because each time a question was posed by Chandrakirti, Chandragomin would insist on giving the answer the next day after praying to Avalokiteshvara who would tell him the right answer. The description of Nalanda Monastery's seven-year debate between Candrakīrti and Candragomin should be Tāranātha's biggest academic mistake in his life. It is believed that with his erudition, he should have read the Commentary on "Mañjuśrī-Nāma-Saṃgīti" of Candragomin for sure. In the 135th verse of the commentary, it is an analysis of the Mādhyamaka and Yogācāra of the Mahāyāna schools. It should not be difficult for Tāranātha to conclude that Candragomin is a Mādhyamika according to Candragomin's commentary on the 135th verse of "Mañjuśrī-Nāma-Saṃgīti". The seven-year debate between Candragomin and Candrakīrti is not a debate between Mādhyamaka and Yogācāra school, but a debate on the nuanced differences of view of the Mādhyamaka school. (en)
- Candragomin è stato un monaco buddhista indiano, poeta e filosofo di scuola Mahāyāna Cittamātra. Candragomin era figlio di uno studioso di casta kṣatriya. Fu allievo di Sthiramati (VI sec.), a sua volta seguace della scuola buddhista Cittamātra fondata da Asaṅga e Vasubandhu (IV secolo d.C.). È noto nelle fonti , per aver sostenuto le tesi Cittamātra contro il Mādhyamika Candrakīrti presso l'università di Nālandā per oltre sette anni, senza che nessuno dei due prevalesse. Fu autore del , commentario della grammatica di Pāṇini in cui criticò Patañjali. Secondo la tradizione lesse le opere di Candrakīrti giudicandole migliori delle sue, gettando le sue in un pozzo. Ma gli apparve Tārā che gli impose di recuperarle a beneficio degli esseri senzienti. Nel Tanjur del Canone tibetano sono conservati quattro inni a Tārā a lui attribuiti. (it)
