After considering various Sastras, Sri Jiva Goswami Prabhu wrote a commentary on this book. Out of compassion, he presented it to the devotees of Bengal.

My spiritual master, Sri Bipin Bihari, ordered me to write according to Sri Jiva Goswami’s commentary and to add more. Thus, this poor servant wrote a commentary with great pleasure.

If the devotees study this commentary with pure intelligence, carefully considering the difference between matter and spirit, then this servant will be satisfied, his desire will be fulfilled, and pure devotional service will be propagated.

Offering my respectful obeisances to my spiritual master and to Krsna, I wrote this commentary for the pleasure of the pure devotees. (Mangalacarana of Brahma-samhita Prakasini)
