All the incarnations are nondifferent from Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and They are all present within Śrī Kṛṣṇa’s transcendental form. However, He is always triumphant, surpassing all of Them with His unending, manifold glories, which are indicated by the word bhaga.

Commentary: Dig-darśinī-ṭīkā with Bhāvānuvāda

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

“Although the source of all the incarnations is nondifferent from His incarnations, avatārī Śrī Kṛṣṇa is supremely excellent.” This is being established here in this verse beginning with ekaḥ. Śrī Nārada says, “Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the aggregate of all incarnations, meaning that all of them are present in subtle form within His transcendental body. Therefore, He is the seed of all the incarnations. Being more extraordinary than Them, He is clearly addressed as bhaga, meaning ‘all-opulent.’”

It is stated in the Viṣṇu Purāṇa (6.5.74):

ऐश्वर्यस्य समग्रस्य धर्मस्य (वीर्यस्य)यशसः श्रियः
ज्ञान-वैराग्ययोश् चापि षण्णां भग इतीङ्गना

aiśvaryasya samagrasya dharmasya (vīryasya)yaśasaḥ śriyaḥ
jñāna-vairāgyayoś cāpi ṣaṇṇāṃ bhaga itīṅganā

Six categories–complete supremacy, or wealth; complete strength; complete fame; complete beauty; complete knowledge; and complete renunciation–are known as bhaga.

Due to His natural and variegated glories, which are eternal, boundless, indescribable, and extraordinary, Goloka-nātha Śrī Kṛṣṇa is supremely victorious in every respect.
