Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:
The Absolute Truth is fully cognizant, fully independent, and fully self- satisfied. Therefore, if that compassionate Lord appears before the foolish living entities, they will awaken to their constitutional position and attain liberation from material entanglement. This is how Advaita Prabhu felt.
