A fellow correspondent has corrected me regarding the

author of the Guruparampara Prabhaavam, perhaps the

oldest extant traditional biography of the aazhvaars

and acharyas we have.

 

I include here his comments:

> states so in his introduction to the lattter book.

I apologize for the error. NampiLLai was Periya Vaaccaan PiLLai's

acharya, as well as the acharya of the author of the eedu vyaakhyaanam

on thiruvaaymozhi. The GPP was then written within 3-4 generations

of Ramanuja.
