Commentary: Dig-darśinī-ṭīkā with Bhāvānuvāda

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

The 󲹰پ-śٰ say, “You have desired to see the Lord for a long time, and you will receive that great result.�

Śī Gopa-ܳ might object, “I do not have a proper service attitude toward Śī 󲹲, so how can I receive His 岹śԲ?�

The bhakti-śٰ reply, “You will obtain that exalted fruit of your desires just by the power of chanting Śī Ѳ岹Բ-DZ-deva’s tensyllable mantra.�
