Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:

Śrī Advaita Prabhu desired to achieve abundant mercy in the form of

chastisement from Śrī Gaurasundara, so He rocked back and forth out of respect for Māyāvāda, which is averse to devotional service. Therefore, on arriving there with Nityānanda, Mahāprabhu displayed anger towards those envious of devotional service.
