Later, Gopāla Bhaṭṭa Gosvāmī produced a shortened version of it and added the *Dig-darśinī-ṭīkā.* In the *Hari-bhakti-vilāsa* there are so many quotations from the *sātvata* scriptures that sometimes it is inquired how the atheistic *smārtas* can refuse to accept them and instead imagine some other opinions. What is recorded in the *Hari-bhakti-vilāsa* strictly follows the Vedic scriptures and is certainly pure, but the attitude of the *karmīs* is always one of giving up the conclusion of pure Vaiṣṇava understanding. Because the *karmīs* are very much attached to the world and material activities, they always try to establish atheistic principles that oppose the understanding of the Vaiṣṇavas.
