Sanlun (simplified Chinese: 三论宗 traditional Chinese: 三論宗 ||pinyin]]: sān lùn zōng) or literally the Three Treatise School was a Chinese school of Buddhism, founded by Jizang, based upon the Indian Madhyamaka tradition, founded by Nagarjuna. The name derives from the fact that three principal Madhyamikan texts by Nagarjuna and Aryadeva were translated by Kumarajiva to form the basis for the tradition. The three texts are: * The Treatise on the Middle Way (中論), by Nagarjuna. * The Treatise on the Twelve Gates (十二門論), also by Nagarjuna. * The One-Hundred-Verse Treatise (百論, by Aryadeva).
