Paternal lineage and Guru lineage. Like the paternal lineage, there is rarely any clear mention of their Guru lineage, nor is it known what the name of your Diksha Guru was. Their own texts do not contain any praises of them, nor have other scholars shed any light on their Guru lineage. However, it is known that you were among the chief Acharyas of the 'Mula Sangh'. The 14th century Vikram era scholar-poet 'Hastimalla' and 'Ayyappary' have described you as the moon of the Mula Sangh sky, using the epithet 'Shrimulasanganhyonendu'. Apart from this, some inscriptions from Shravanabelagola reveal that you are a descendant of the lineage of great Acharyas like Shri Bhadrabahu Shruta Kevali, his disciple Chandragupta, Chandragupta Muni's descendant Padmanandi, also known as Shri Kondakunda Muni Raj, his descendant Umaswati, also known as Grdhrapichcha Acharya, and Grdhrapichcha's disciple Balakapichcha. As follows:
