The Compendium of Abhidharma (Skt. Abhidharmasamuccaya; Tib. མངོན་པ་ཀུན་བཏུས་, ngönpa küntü, Wyl. mngon pa kun btus) was composed by Asanga, one of the 'Six Ornaments', the greatest Buddhist authorities of Ancient India. Abhidharma-samuccaya is a complete and systematic account of the Abhidharma written from a Mahayana, Chittamatra point of view. It is included among the so-called "Thirteen great texts", which form the core of the curriculum in most shedras and on which Khenpo Shenga provided commentaries.
