citta diyāśuna bhāi prabhura vikāra ananta brahmāṇḍe sama nāhika yāhāra || 130 ||

(130) O brothers, please hear attentively about the Lord’s transformations of ecstatic love, which are unique throughout the innumerable universes.

Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:

The transformations of Mahāprabhu’s ecstatic love can never be compared with the transformations of any devotees’ ecstatic love within the fourteen worlds. It is to be understood that cheaters who imitate the Lord’s exhibition of transformations of ecstatic love in order to deceive people are devoid of love of God.
