jagāda–he said; ca–and; nijam–own; sarvam–all I have; idam–this; preṣṭhāya–who are very dear; te–to you; adadām–I have given; sarvam–all; etat-prabhāveṇa–by the power of the this mantra; svayam–automatically; jñāsyasi–you will know; lapsyase–you will attain.

After this, Śrī Gurudeva told me, “O son, you are very dear to me, and therefore, I am giving you my entire wealth. By the power of chanting this mantra, all other secrets will automatically be revealed to you.”

Commentary: Dig-darśinī-ṭīkā with Bhāvānuvāda

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

The Mathurā brāhmaṇa might raise the doubt, “If Śrī Gurudeva instructed you for only a moment, and through gestures, how could such brief instruction have enabled you to understand the endless types of rules and regulations?” This doubt is valid, but is there anything that cannot be perfected by one who has received the mercy of śrī guru? To explain this, Śrī Gopa-kumāra speaks this verse beginning with jagāda.

After instructing him, Śrī Gurudeva benedicted Gopa-kumāra, telling him, “O son, I have given you everything. There may be some other secrets as well, but by the power of chanting the mantra given by me while practicing nyāsa and other regulations, you will understand all of these confidential matters. By chanting this mantra, you will automatically understand all goals and their means of attainment. This applies to those I have explained and those yet to be described.”
