Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:
In whatever form Śrī Nityānanda wishes to adorn Śrī Gaurasundara, the Lord accepts that form. There is no difference between the hearts of Śrī Gaurasundara and Śrī Nityānanda. They both accepted the form of devotees and engaged in relishing and preaching love of Kṛṣṇa.
