Commentary: Dig-darśinī-ṭīkā with Bhāvānuvāda

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

Śrī Gopa-kumāra might raise the question, “Previously, you did not instruct me on the method for chanting the mantra. Is it appropriate for me to receive those instructions now?”

Śrī Gurudeva replies, “If time and place are unsuitable for giving instructions about mantra, those instructions are not given. However, from now on, you will see me sometimes here and other times in Vṛndāvana. When the time and place are right, you will receive further instructions on this topic.” Gurudeva’s words indicate that if time and place are unsuitable, there will be a delay in achieving the result.

Gopa-kumāra says, “Speaking like this, Śrī Gurudeva suddenly left. Where he went, I cannot say with certainty.”
