Harivyas devacharya (c. 15th Century[1][9]) also known as Harivyasadeva (Sanskrit: हरिव्यास देवाचार्य, हरिव्यासदेव, romanized: Harivyāsa devāchārya, Harivyāsa) was an Indian philosopher, theologian and poet.[10] Born into a Gaud brahmin family,[11] he became the 35th āchārya of the Nimbārka Sampradāya.[4] Residing in the sacred town of Vrindavana, he was a disciple of Śrī Śrībhaṭṭa Devāchārya ji[11][2][12] and his nom-de-plume was Hari Priyā.[13][14][15]He also played a pivotal role in expanding the reach of the Nimbārka Sampradāya by sending twelve main disciples on missionary journeys across Indian Subcontinent, each establishing their own sub-lineage, some of which continue to thrive today.
