yamunaithuraivar was born in kAttu mannAr kOil. He eventually and popularly became to be known as ALavandhAr. He is also known as periya mudhaliAr, paramAchAryar, vAdhimathEbha simhEndrar. He was born as the son of Isvara muni and the grand son of nAthamunigaL.

ALavandhAr was a very great scholar in ubhaya vEdhAntham. We can easily understand from his granthams.

1. In chathusLoki he gives the essence of pirAtti’s vaibhavam in just 4 slOkams.

2. sthOthra rathnam is a real gem – He explains the whole concept of sharaNagathi (as explained in thiruvAimozhi, etc) in very simple sthOthrams.

3. gIthArtha sangraham brings out the essence of gIthA.

4. Agama prAmaNyam is the first grantham which highlights the importance and validity of sri pAncharAthra Agamam.
