Source: Wisdom Library: Tibetan Buddhism鲹ٲԲśī (रत्नश्री) is the name of a Tathāgata (Buddha) mentioned as attending the teachings in the 6th century Mañjuśrīmūlakalpa: one of the largest Kriyā Tantras devoted to Mañjuśrī (the Bodhisattva of wisdom) representing an encyclopedia of knowledge primarily concerned with ritualistic elements in Buddhism. The teachings in this text originate from Mañjuśrī and were taught to and by Buddha Śākyamuni in the presence of a large audience (including 鲹ٲԲśī).

Tibetan Buddhism includes schools such as Nyingma, Kadampa, Kagyu and Gelug. Their primary canon of literature is divided in two broad categories: The Kangyur, which consists of Buddha’s words, and the Tengyur, which includes commentaries from various sources. Esotericism and tantra techniques (Բ) are collected indepently.

Then the Lord applauded the Bodhisattva Gaganagañja: ‘Good man, the teaching of this gate to concentration was well spoken by you. Just as the dharmas are not dependent on others because they are directly perceived by [the senses] of your body, in the same way the knowledge of the Tathāgata was elucidated—this complete teaching is good, very good’�.
