(By 艢r墨la San膩tana Gosv膩m墨 himself including a deep purport of that commentary)
What did 艢r墨 碍峁涐梗峁嘺 do? Considering the crooked ways of time, He tolerated the misery of maintaining the cows. Due to His childish innocence, He tolerated such formidable distress. The passage of time indicates that He tolerated all these distresses in order to reside in a hidden manner and cheat 碍补峁僺补. Therefore, what should 艢r墨 碍峁涐梗峁嘺 do for the 惫谤补箩补-惫腻蝉颈蝉? In other words, 艢r墨 碍峁涐梗峁嘺 tolerated all the distresses for the achievement of His self-interests and did ample favors for the 惫谤补箩补-惫腻蝉颈蝉. What more favors can He do for them?
