seyam akhaṇḍāpi nijālambanasya bhagavata āvirbhāva-tāratamyena svayaṁ tāratamyenaivāvirbhavati | tad evaṁ sati śrī-kṛṣṇasyaiva svayaṁ-bhagavattvena tat-sandarbhe darśitatvāt tatraiva tasyāḥ parā pratiṣṭhā |
(Prīti Sandarbha: 78)

“Although this [i.e., prīti] is undivided [i.e., a singular, indivisible entity], it manifests itself in a gradation in accord with a gradation in the manifestation of its support (ālambana), [viz.,] Bhagavān. Thus existing as such, on account of Śrī Kṛṣṇa alone being shown in his sandarbha [i.e., Kṛṣṇa Sandarbha] to be Svayaṁ Bhagavān, its [i.e., prīti’s] ultimate standing is solely in relation to him [i.e., the ultimate manifestation of prīti has only Svayaṁ Bhagavān Śrī Kṛṣṇa for its object, and all manifestations of prīti for other forms of Śrī Bhagavān, such as Śrī Rāma, Śrī Viṣṇu, and so on, are of a lesser degree of completion].”
