Kamalagupta (कमलगुप्त) refers to one of the Pundits travelling with Rin-chen-bzaṅ-po (Ratnabhadra): one of the translators of the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā: one of the three great works of Vāgbhaṭa.—Ratnabhadra paid three visits to adjacent Kashmir and there studied Tantrayāna with 75 pundits; the most eminent among them were Śraddhākaravarman, Kamalagupta, and Jinamitra. At the age of 49, he joined the order of Bla-chen, which sought to remedy the abuses of Buddhism that had cropped up after its persecution by King Glaṅ-dar-ma.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
