महीदास / MAHĪDĀSA. An ācārya (Preceptor). He is believed to be the author of “Aitareya Brāhmaṇa” and “Aitareya Āraṇyaka”.
According to Chāndogyopaniṣad and Jaiminīya upaniṣad brāhmaṇa, mahīdāsa lived for 117 years. Although this ācārya was a victim of diseases he was quite indifferent to the painful sufferings caused by them. (Chāndogyopaniṣad 3
