Jñānadeva was a descendant (\*suta\*) in the pupil's line, that is, really a disciple of Nivṛittinātha. At the conclusion of his work he says that Nivṛittinātha was a pupil of Gahininātha and that the latter was a pupil of Gorakshanātha who himself was a pupil of Matsyendranātha. If Jñānadeva's date was Śaka 1212 (= 1290 A.D.), Gorakshanātha has to be placed about the beginning of the 13th century A.D. - [Previous: c25.s2.101](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.bhandarkar-1884.c25.s2.101) - [Up: c25.s2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.bhandarkar-1884.c25.s2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.bhandarkar-1884.c25.s2.102](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.bhandarkar-1884.c25.s2.102) · Pramāṇa
