'গোপাল-ভট্টাচার্য' নাম তাঁর ছোট-ভাই ।
কাশীতে বেদান্ত পড়ি' গেলা তাঁর ঠাঞি ॥ ৮৯ ॥
'gopala-bhattacarya' nama taṅra chota-bhai
kasite vedanta padi' gela taṅra thani
gopala-bhattacarya-Gopala Bhattacarya; nama-named; taṅra-his; chota-bhai-younger brother; kasite-at Benares; vedanta padi'-studying Vedanta philosophy; gela-went; taṅra thani-to his place.
Bhagavan Acarya's brother, whose name was Gopala Bhattacarya, had studied Vedanta philosophy at Benares and had then returned to Bhagavan Acarya's home.
During those days and also at the present, Vedanta philosophy is understood through the commentary of Saṅkaracarya, which is known as Sariraka-bhasya. Thus it appears that Gopala Bhattacarya, the younger brother of Bhagavan Acarya, had studied Vedanta according to the way of the Sariraka-bhasya, which expounds the Mayavada philosophy of the impersonalists.
