Sri: These are the dates I have for the time periods of these acharyas: 1. From Periya Thirumudi Adaviu, Pillai Lokacharyar was born in the year 1205. The year of his passing away from this world is not 100% clear. It happened during one islamic invasion into Srirangam. But there were multiple invasions. If we take it that he left Srirangam in the invasion of 1311, then his period is 105 years: 1205-1311. This is the most commonly accepted time period. Some state that Namperumal and Pillai Lokachariar exited Srirangam in 1327, which would place his time period at 1205-1327 (121 years). 2. It is said that Namperumal blessed Vadakku Thiruveethip Pillai to have a son like Him (in contrast to Pillai Lokacharyar, who was blessed to be born like Nampillai by Nampillai himself) during the first birthday celebration of Pillai Lokacharyar. Azhagiya Manavala Perumal Nayanar is said to have been born a year after that. That would place his birth year at 1207. He is said to have lived 100 years. His period therefore is 1207-1307 or 1308. 3. Periyavachchan Pillai's time period is 1167-1262. 4. Vedanta Desikan's accepted time period is 1268-1369. If Vedanta Desikan indeed reached Srirangam at the age of 40, then that would be the year 1308. Which would mean that Azhagiya Manavala Perumal Nayanar had indeed already attained his acharyan's divine feet by then. If there was any possible overlap (which would have been miniscule), there is no evidence to show that the two had any significant interaction. adiyEn madhurakavi dAsan --- vinjamoor_venkatesh <vinjamoor_venkatesh@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > But Sri TCA Swamin, can you please check the period of > Sri Azhagiya > Manavala Perumal Nayanar.
