  Narayana Guru - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nārāyana Guru’s philosophy, which is fundamentally of Advaitic and non-dual wisdom in principles, further extended Advaita concepts into practical modes of self-realisation through spiritual education, compassion and vision for peaceful co-existence of the human race, whilst promoting social equality and universal brotherhood.
The Guru’s philosophy is exemplified in his mystical writings that are truly interchanging warps and wefts of ethics, logic, aesthetics and metaphysics woven into masterpieces of silken rich poetry.
At the time of its conception, Nārāyana Guru’s philosophy was in many respects ahead of its time and focused on a futuristic world order that could be shaped from his philosophical connotations that are underlain with transcendental aesthetics and logic embodied in knowledge and pure reason.

The popular picture of Narayana Guru as messiah to a community is given substance by continuing generations of Ezhavas (among who the Guru had his physical birth) insisting on seeing him as their deliverer.
It is this Narayana Guru (much like Vivekananda in another, though no less limited, context) who is carried aloft on flags and posters at rallies and marches of the SNDP (an active caste based contender to political power in Kerala, by whose influence the caste name "Ezhava" comes to alternate in use with "Sri Narayaneeyar").
Narayana Guru, the silent mystic, who recognises and is recognised as a kindred spirit by Ramana Maharshi, appears in the words and thought of his disciples; it is he who imparts the last lesson in Vedanta to his disciple and successor "Thambi"- P.Natarajan, later Nataraja Guru - through a refusal to speak.

This was partly because the great Guru was born in that community and partly because the Ezhavas constituted the largest single community among the downtrodden masses in Kerala.
The Guru ought to be much better known than he is. His message, of the remarkable renaissance and reformation that is possible in Hinduism, is of great merit at this time when the sanatana dharma is under withering attack.
Later, the Guru consecrated a mirror in one temple; and a lamp in another: his message was that the divine was in all of us, and that we need to honor and nurture that.

 The Hare Krsnas - The Philosophy - Philosophical Debate - Krsna Blog Archive
Narayana Maharaja likes to include Srila Prabhupada and his own guru as both being in the bhagavata parampara, and there’s much innuendo that all of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta’s disciples who didn’t fall down are also members of the bhagavata parampara.
The poem implies that Srila Prabhupada and Narayana Maharaja are Godbrothers, and that Prabhupada is Kesava's disciple, not Bhaktisiddhanta's.
You state that guru parampara is based on and structured within a siksa paradigm, and a guru parampara that does not recognize or utilize the siksa or Bhagavat sampradaya is not considered to be in the sampradaya.
