Commentary: Dig-darśinī-ṭīkā with Bhāvānuvāda

(By Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī himself including a deep purport of that commentary)

Although Śrī ṛṣṇa narrated the dream, still ۲śǻ kept staring with unblinking eyes for a long time. Seeing this, Śrī ṛṣṇa thought to Himself, ‘Seeing me sleeping for a long time, has become unhappy due to fear that I may be unwell.� Thinking in this way, while consoling His , He spoke, “O mother, this disturbance came for a long time in the form of an enchanting dream, so I could not get up from bed at daybreak.�
