“The other two main disciples of Madhva were Nrihari Tirtha and Madhava Tirtha. Madhava Tirtha accepted the great paramahamsa Aksobhya Tirtha as a disciple. The principal student of Aksobhya Tirtha was known as Jayatirtha, serving whom was the main purpose of Jnanasindhu’s life.
(From Sri Guru-parampara, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati)
Sri Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada writes:
“Padmanabha Acarya is the disciple of Madhvacarya, and Narahari (also pronounced Nrhari) is the disciple of Padmanabha Acarya. Madhava is the disciple of Narahari, Aksobhya is the direct disciple of Madhava, and Jayatirtha is the disciple of Aksobhya.
(Caitanya Caritamrita, Adi-lila 6.40, purport)
