Commentary: Dig-darśinī-ṭīkā with Bhāvānuvāda

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

Śrī Gopa-kumāra says, “I resolved to see Sanaka and the other Kumāras and their beloved Lord. To achieve this, I began to chant my worshipable mantra with one-pointed attention, with mind devoted to Bhagavān.” Alternatively, the verse is saying, “I had observed Śrī Sanat-kumāra’s deep meditation and surmised that such samādhi, or profound meditation, is the only process (sādhana) for reaching his abode. Therefore, withdrawing within myself and continuously chanting my mantra, I became qualified to know that abode. In other words, I became supremely radiant like Sanat-kumāra and the others and proceeded to Tapoloka at lightning speed.”
