Three study points drawn from the translation and purport.
Śrīla Rāmānanda Rāya says that Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu explained truths about transcendental mellows through his mouth.
He recognizes those same truths in the writings of Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī.
He credits the Lord as the source of the teachings, rather than claiming them as his own.
Recognition and encouragement. Rūpa’s devotional insight receives the Lord’s approval; even a dog receives mercy.
