	In Tibet, there is a school known as the '''Great Madhyamaka''' (''mahamadhyamaka''), or Yogacara-Madhyamaka, or [[Shentong]]. Practitioners of this school claim this is a superior view to the ordinary Madhyamaka. This view was elucidated in the scriptures of Maitreya, [[~~Āryāsaṅga\|~~Asanga]], Vasubandhu and Dignaga. It was also profoundly illuminated in [[Nāgārjuna\|Nagarjuna]]'s Praise to Dharmadhatu. Thus, Shentong is considered to be the viewpoint of both masters, Nagarjuna and Asanga.

According to Madhyamaka all [[Noumenon#Phenomenon\|phenomena]] (dharmas) are empty (śūnya) of "nature," a "substance" or "essence" ([[Svābhāva (Buddhism)\|svābhāva]]) which gives them "solid and independent existence," because they are dependently co-arisen. But this "[[Śūnyatā\|emptiness]]" itself is also "empty": it does not have an existence on its own, nor does it refer to a transcendental reality beyond or above phenomenal reality.
