Comentário

Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura writes in his Anubhāṣya, “Vīrabhadra Gosāñi was the direct son of Śrīla Nityānanda Prabhu and a disciple of Jāhnavā-devī. His real mother was Vasudhā. In the Gaura-gaṇoddeśa-dīpikā (67) He is mentioned as an incarnation of Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu. Therefore Vīrabhadra Gosāñi is nondifferent from Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu. In a village of the name Jhāmaṭapura, in the district of Hugli, Vīrabhadra Gosāñi had a disciple named Yadunāthācārya, who had two daughters — a real daughter named Śrīmatī and a foster daughter named Nārāyaṇī. Both these daughters married, and they are mentioned in the Bhakti-ratnākara (Thirteenth Wave). Vīrabhadra Gosāñi had three disciples who are celebrated as his sons — Gopījana-vallabha, Rāmakṛṣṇa and Rāmacandra. The youngest, Rāmacandra, belonged to the Śāṇḍilya dynasty and had the surname Vaṭavyāla. He established his family at Khaḍadaha, and its members are known as the gosvāmīs of Khaḍadaha. The eldest disciple, Gopījana-vallabha, was a resident of a village known as Latā, near the Mānakara railway station in the district of Burdwan. The second, Rāmakṛṣṇa, lived near Māladaha, in a village named Gayeśapura.” Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura notes that since these three disciples belonged to different gotras, or dynasties, and also had different surnames and lived in different places, it is not possible to accept them as real sons of Vīrabhadra Gosāñi. Rāmacandra had four sons, of whom the eldest was Rādhāmādhava, whose third son was named Yādavendra. Yādavendra’s son was Nandakiśora, his son was Nidhikṛṣṇa, his son was Caitanyacāṇḍa, his son was Kṛṣṇamohana, his son was Jaganmohana, his son was Vrajanātha, and his son was Śyāmalāla Gosvāmī. This is the genealogical table given by Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura for the descendants of Vīrabhadra Gosāñi.

SIGNIFICADO—Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura descreve em seu Anubhāṣya: “Vīrabhadra Gosāñi foi o filho direto de Śrīla Nityānanda Prabhu e discípulo de Jāhnavā-devī. Sua mãe verdadeira era Vasudhā. No Gaura-gaṇoddeśa-dīpikā (67), menciona-se que ele é uma encarnação de Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu. Portanto, Vīrabhadra Gosāñi não é diferente de Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Numa vila chamada Jhāmaṭapura, no distrito de Hugli, Vīrabhadra Gosāñi teve um discípulo chamado Yadunāthācārya, que teve duas filhas – uma filha natural chamada Śrīmatī, e uma filha adotiva chamada Nārāyaṇī. Ambas essas filhas se casaram e são mencionadas no Bhakti-ratnākara (Onda Treze). Vīrabhadra Gosāñi teve três discípulos que são famosos como seus filhos – Gopījana-vallabha, Rāmakṛṣṇa e Rāmacandra. O caçula, Rāmacandra, pertencia à dinastia Śāṇḍilya, e seu sobrenome era Vaṭavyāla. Em Khaḍadaha, ele estabeleceu sua família, cujos membros são conhecidos como os gosvāmīs de Khaḍadaha. O discípulo mais velho, Gopījana-vallabha, residia numa vila conhecida como Latā, perto da estação férrea de Mānakara, no distrito de Burdwan. O segundo, Rāmakṛṣṇa, vivia perto de Māladaha, numa vila chamada Gayeśapura.” Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura observa que, como esses três discípulos pertenciam a diferentes gotras, ou dinastias, e também tinham diferentes sobrenomes e viviam em lugares diferentes, não é possível aceitá-los como filhos nascidos de Vīrabhadra Gosāñi. Rāmacandra teve quatro filhos, dos quais o mais velho era Rādhāmādhava, cujo terceiro filho chamava-se Yādavendra. O filho de Yādavendra foi Nandakiśora, o filho desse Nidhikṛṣṇa, cujo filho foi Caitanyacāṇḍa, cujo filho foi Kṛṣṇamohana, cujo filho foi Jaganmohana, cujo filho foi Vrajanātha, e o filho desse foi Śyāmalāla Gosvāmī. Essa é a árvore genealógica dos descendentes de Vīrabhadra Gosāñi feita por Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura.
