Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:
Although some people discriminate between Śrī Nityānanda and Śrī Advaita after hearing Their exchanges, it is not their business to imagine in this way regarding the nature of inconceivable subject matters. The wonderful variegated pastimes of the Lord are incomprehensible to all; they are situated in the kingdom beyond material thought.
