The aim of this paper is to examine how the Pratyabhijñā works were transmitted in South India, by focusing on the Īśvarapratyabhijñānvayadīpikā, a South Indian commentary on the Īśvarapratyabhijñākārikā.
The author of the Īśvarapratyabhijñānvayadīpikā is Nāthānanda. He was requested to compose it by his disciple Svaprabhānanda. Svaprabhānanda is identical to the author of the Śivādvaitamañjarī. According to the Hooli Vīraśaśaiva lineage, Svaprabhānanda could have lived around 1600, and hence his teacher, Nāthānanda, could have lived in the second half of the 16th century.
In the Īśvarapratyabhijñānvayadīpikā, Nāthānanda often quotes and copies the Īśvarapratyabhijñāvimarśinī. This shows that the Īśvarapratyabhijñāvimarśinī was regarded as the standard commentary in South India.
