From the abstract: This paper aims to (1) argue, with special attention paid on his presentation of the three natures, that Ratnākaraśānti defines his own doctrine as Rang bzhin gsum gyi dbu ma / *Trisvabhāva-mādhyamika in his “Core Trilogy”: the Prajñāpāramitopadeśa, the Madhyamakālaṅkāropadeśa, and the Madhyamakālaṅkāravṛtti​madhyamapratipatsiddhi; (2) demonstrate, by comparing Ratnākaraśānti’s view with that of the orthodox Jo nang authors represented by Dol po pa Shes rab rgyal mtshan (1292–1361) and Tāranātha (1575–1634), that Ratnākaraśānti is arguably a gZhan stong pa in its strictest sense; and (3) problematize Brunnhölzl […] and Sponberg’s […] classification of different accounts of the three natures in Indian, Tibetan and Chinese sources.
