Astonished at this, Sārvabhauma said, "How is it that You understand the meanings of the sūtras but do not understand the commentaries which explain the sūtras? All well! If You understand the sūtras, please let me have Your interpretations."
Mahāprabhu thereupon explained all the sūtras in His own way, without touching the pantheistic commentary of Śaṅkara. The keen understanding of Sārvabhauma enabled him to see the truth, beauty and harmony of the arguments in the explanations given by Caitanya, and Sārvabhauma was obliged to utter that it was the first time he had found one who could explain the Brahma-sūtras in such a simple manner.
