Publisher's Synopsis
This book is provided with direct translation of Srila Sanatana's Dig-darsini commentary.This portion of Bṛhad-bhagavatamṛta begins the story of Gopakumara's search for the form of the Lord described in the mantra given to him by his guru. The conclusion, that the highest devotees are the gopis, is similar to the theme of the first volume which involves Narada's quest to find the greatest recipients of the Lord's mercy. However, in this story a devotee searches the earth, higher planets and Vaikuṇṭha for Kṛṣṇa, spanning over several days of Brahma. Various forms of the Lord and the various types of worship are described. He feels dissatisfaction however because the forms and moods never correspond to those found in his mantra. This volume ends with Gopa kumara's visit to Ayodhya to see Ramacandra.
