Commentary: Dig-dar艣in墨-峁玨膩 with Bh膩v膩nuv膩da
(By 艢谤墨la San膩tana Gosv膩m墨 himself including a deep purport of that commentary)
艢谤墨 Gopa-办耻尘腻谤补 says, 鈥淚n this way, even though I was very eager to go to the land of Vraja in the district of 艢谤墨 惭补迟丑耻谤腻, the idea of abandoning 艢谤墨 叠丑补驳补惫腻苍鈥檚 association made me very disturbed. However, 艢谤墨 惭补丑腻-辫耻谤耻峁, the presiding Deity of Brahmaloka, knows the internal feelings of all living beings. Thus, He personally instructed me, speaking directly to me with His own divine mouth.鈥�
