According to his eponymous tradition, the Nimbārka Sampradāya, Śrī Nimbārkāchārya appeared in the year 3096 BCE, when the grandson of Arjuna was on the throne. Contrarily, scholars headed by Prof. Roma Bose theorise he lived in the 13th Century,[1] on the presupposition that Śrī Nimbārkāchārya was the author of the work Madhvamukhamardana. This has been proven to be an erroneous attribution.[2]
Bhandarkar has placed him after Ramanuja, suggesting 1162 AD as the date of his demise.[3] S.N.Dasgupta[4] dated Nimbarka to around middle of 14th Century. On the other hand, S. A. A. Rizvi assigns a date of c.1130–1200 AD.[5]
Current scholarship has pointed out that in Bhandarkar's own work it is clearly stated that this was an approximation based on an extremely flimsy calculation, yet most scholars chose to honour his suggested date, even until modern times. The latest scholarship has demonstrated with a high degree of clarity that Nimbarka and his immediate disciple Shrinivasa flourished well before Ramanuja, and that Shrinivasa was a contemporary, or just after Sankaracarya.[6]
According to tradition, Nimbārka was born in Vaidūryapattanam, the present-day Mungi Village, Paithan in East Maharashtra. He was born to Aruṇa Ṛṣi and Jayantī Devī who were Telugu Brahmins.Together, they migrated to Mathurā and settled at what is now known as Nimbagrāma (Neemgaon), situated between Barsānā and Govardhan.
