Nimbarka Acarya

He is the main acarya of the Kumara sampradaya. This sampradaya is also known as the Nimbarka sampradaya. It is believed that he was on this earth about the 13th century. This sampradaya worships Radha and Krishna. Devotees in the Nimbarka sampradaya manage many of the important temples in Braja.

In the Vrindavana and Mathura area there are many followers of the Nimbarka sampradaya sect. The Sriji Temple, near Loi Bazaar in Vrindavana, is the main center of the Nimbarka sampradaya. The village of Nimgaon, which is 1½ km from Govardhana, is named after Nimbarka. He lived there from his childhood and performed his bhajana there.
