Source: Shodhganga: a concise history of Sanskrit Chanda literatureVeṅkaṭeśa (वेङ्कटेश) (C. 15th century), the son of Avadhāna Sarasvatī and the grandson of Ekāmranātha. He was also the son-in-law and student of Kāmeśanātha, a Shaivite of Kāśyapa-gotra. His gotra was Ātreya and his native was Makṣikāraṇya in Tuṇḍiramaṇḍala (Kāñci), now in Tamilnadu state of India. His another name is Veṅkaṭādri and also surnamed as Kālidāsa in some manuscripts. In Praśnottararatnamālā he mentions his name as Veṅkaṭādri, but its colophon says that the author is Śrīśailanātha.
Chandas (छन्दस्) refers to Sanskrit prosody and represents one of the six Vedangas (auxiliary disciplines belonging to the study of the Vedas). The science of prosody (chandas-shastra) focusses on the study of the poetic meters such as the commonly known twenty-six metres mentioned by Pingalas.
