Definition in this text:

The bodhisattva who gives all the teachings of The Ten Bhūmis while in the Para­nirmita­vaśa­vartin paradise in the presence of a silent emanation of the Buddha Śākyamuni who has just attained buddhahood in Jambudvīpa. A bodhisattva of that name appears in passing in a few other sūtras and is the name of the principal interlocutor for the Hevajra Tantra, and the commentary to that tantra is also attributed to him.
