Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:
Śrī Gadādhara Paṇḍita Gosvāmī would always remain with Mahāprabhu, and he would please Gaurasundara by chanting and dancing throughout the night on the shore of the ocean. Śrī Gadādhara Paṇḍita Prabhu would never live separate from the Lord. While eating, sleeping, or wandering around, Gadādhara Paṇḍita Prabhu always served the Lord. It was Gadādhara Paṇḍita who constantly recited Śrīmad Bhāgavatam before Mahāprabhu. Śrī Gaurasundara would visit the residences of the Vaiṣṇavas with Gadādhara Paṇḍita Prabhu.
