Tibetan doxography divides Madhyamaka into the Svātantrika, which uses independent arguments to establish emptiness, and the Prāsaṅgika, associated with Buddhapālita and Candrakīrti, which only shows the unwanted consequences of opponents’ views. The Geluk school, following Tsongkhapa, regards Prāsaṅgika as the highest view.
Prāsaṅgika
The branch of Madhyamaka that refutes all positions by drawing out their absurd consequences.
Also: Prasangika, Svatantrika
