Commentary: Dig-darśinī-ṭīkā with Bhāvānuvāda

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

Śrī Gopa-kumāra says, “Only the beautiful Mathurā-maṇḍala was present exactly as before, with the same Vṛndāvana and other forests, the same trees, creepers, and shrubs, the same Govardhana and other hills, and the same Śrī Yamunā and other rivers. And as in previous times, it was adorned with people, animals, birds, and other moving and non-moving living entities.”
