Since both were AchAryAs together at the same time,

they were fondly called as pEriAndavan and

chinnAndavan by the sishyAs and admirers alike. This

period lasted for a very short duration though with

Srimath pEriAndavan reaching parama padam within 4

months of Srimath chinnAndavan took up sanyAsA.

 

Srimath chinnAndavan was serving as guiding light of

the sampradaya and authored rarest of several granthAs

when he was the AchAryA of the periAsramam– They are

as follows:

 

1. AhnikArtha prakAsikai

2. Sri Jayanthi nirNayam

3. ukthyAchArya nishtA vichAram

4. sathpadha rakshai

5. JanmAshtami nirNayam

6. thathkrathu nyAya vichAram

7. AchArya sambhAvanA kramam

8. yathi dharama samucchayam
