Commentary: Sārārtha-Varṣiṇī Ṭīkā

(By Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura; the innermost intention of the commentary named ‘the shower of essential meanings’)

All who know the principles of sacrifice and who perform sacrifices as described above gradually advance in knowledge, by which they can attain brahma. Here, the secondary result of such sacrifice is explained; they also taste the nectarean remnants of sacrifice, such as mundane enjoyment, opulence and mystic perfections. Similarly‚ the primary fruit is described as brahma-yānti (the attainment of brahma).

Commentary: Sārārtha-Varṣiṇī Prakāśikā-vṛtti

(By Śrīla Bhaktivedānta Nārāyaṇa Gosvāmī Mahārāja; the explanation that illuminates the commentary named Sārārtha-varṣiṇī)

The primary fruit of sacrifice is the attainment of brahma, the stage of transcendence, and the secondary fruit is to achieve mundane, or worldly, enjoyment and mystic perfections, such as aṇimā-siddhi (becoming atomic in size).
