Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:

In the pure servitorship of Kṛṣṇa there are no mixed or separate interests. Although the characteristics of both the Absolute Truth Śrī Kṛṣṇa and the ingredients of His enjoyment are qualitatively one, His multifarious energies manifest a variety of pastimes. In the philosophies of śuddha- dvaita (purified dualism), śuddhādvaita (purified monism), dvaitādvaita (monism and dualism), and viśiṣṭādvaita (specific monism) the worship of Kṛṣṇa is primarily stressed. Such nondual consideration was also accepted by Śrī Advaita Prabhu.

In the Śrī Caitanya-candrāmṛta (18) Tridaṇḍi Svāmī Śrīla Prabodhānanda has stated: “The dear devotees of Lord Gaura happily enjoy pastimes on the splendid path of pure devotional service, which great sages like Vyāsadeva could not thoroughly understand, which material intelligence has no power to enter, which Śukadeva Gosvāmī could not reveal, and which merciful Lord Kṛṣṇa never revealed to His devotees.” Śrīla Rūpa Prabhu has stated in his Upadeśāmṛta (11) as follows: yat preṣṭhair apy alam asulabhaṃ kiṃ punar bhakti-bhājāṃ—“That which is very rarely attained even by great devotees is even more difficult for ordinary devotees to attain.”
