Letter to Sumati Morarjee — Valencay, France 7 August, 1976: Sridhara Svami is accepted as the original commentator on the Srimad-Bhagavatam. Perhaps you know that there is an edition of the Srimad-Bhagavatam by Krsna Sankara Sastri "abhinavah sukah" Vedantacarya, Sahitya-tirtha, sribhagavatasudhanidhi, from Ahmedabad. In his book he has given almost all the important commentaries on the Bhagavatam, as follows:

  • 1. Sridhara Svami
  • 2. Sri Vamsidhara
  • 3. Sri Gangasahaya
  • 4. Srimad Viraraghavacarya
  • 5. Srimad Vijayadhvaja Tirtha
  • 6. Srimad Jiva Gosvami
  • 7. Srimad Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura
  • 8. Srimad sukadeva
  • 9. Gosvami Sri-giridharalal (Vallabhacarya Sampradaya)
  • 10. Sri Bhagavat-prasadacarya,

etc.. Among all commentaries, Sridhara Svami's is given the first position. This parampara has existed for a very long time. It was also accepted during Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's time, but Sri Vallabhacarya violated the system. Instead of acknowledging Sridhara Svami's pre-eminent position, he wanted to take it himself.
