गोविन्द भाष्य (श्रील बलदेव विद्याभूषण - अचिन्त्यभेदाभेद वेदान्त ब्रह्मसूत्र भाष्य सटीक)

word Parovarīya means "greater than the greatest". The example here is of the worshipers of Ugītha in relation to Parovarīya. Here someone may object: Is it not so that the ekāntīs and svaniṣṭhas are both called devotees of the Lord and therefore they must both meditate on all the Lord's qualities just as they who call themselves brāhmaṇas must all meditate on the Gāyatrī-mantra? If this is said, then the author of the sūtras gives the following reply. Sūtra 9 saṁjñātaś cet tad uktam asti tu tad api saṁjñātaḥ—by the name; cet—if; tat—that; uktam—spoken; asti—is; tu—but; tat—that; api—also. If it is because of the name, then I reply, "But it was already said. That also." Purport by Śrīla Baladeva Vidyābhūṣaṇa The word "tu" (but) is employed here to dispel doubt. If it is said that all who worship the Supreme must meditate on all His qualities, then the answer was already given in the previous sūtra. The answer is, "Certainly not. Because of the differences in devotion." Although they are certainly included in the general category of the Lord's devotees, the ekāntīs are the best of the devotees, and therefore they do not meditate on all the qualities of the Lord. If it were otherwise then they would not be the best of the devotees. Because the ekāntī devotees are passionately devoted to one particular form of the Lord, they are superior to the svaniṣṭha devotees who are in a general way devoted to all the forms of the Lord. Also, even the svaniṣṭha devotees are not able to meditate on every single one of the Lord's qualities. In the Ṛg Veda (1.154.1) it is said: viṣṇor nu kaṁ vīryāṇi pravocaṁ "How can I describe all the glories and powers of Lord Viṣṇu?" In the Smṛti-śāstra it is said:
