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

A person who worships Lord Hari by following the path of ruci-bhakti is the
best, or is the one who has attained the goal of life. Why is that? The sūtra
explains: "tal-lakṣaṇārthopalabdheḥ" (for it brings the goal that is He who has that
nature). The phrase "He who has that nature" here means, "He who loves His
devotees". This refers to the Supreme Personality of Godhead when He manifests
His quality of sweetness. Here the word "upalabdheḥ" means “because of
independently attaining".
Then the author clarifies this by giving an example: “lokavat" (as in the world).
The Lord is like a great king who himself comes under the control of an expert
and devoted servant. This nature of the Lord does not in any way diminish His
supreme independence. This is so because the Lord's being controlled by the love
of His devotees is actually a great virtue on His part. This is the meaning.
The Supreme Personality of Godhead is attracted by the love of His devotees,
and He reveals His own sweetness to the devotees that love Him. Seeing His
sweetness, the devotees love Him all the more, and they respond by offering
themselves to the Lord. The Lord accepts this offering, and by doing that, He sells
Himself to His devotees in exchange for their love.
In this way the Lord makes His devotees very exalted and important so they can
directly associate with the Lord. Without this it would not be possible for the
devotees to see the Lord and associate with Him. Śrīmān Śukadeva Gosvāmī
explains (Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.9.21):
nāyaṁ sukhāpo bhagavān
dehināṁ gopikā-sutaḥ
jñānināṁ cātma-bhūtānāṁ
yathā bhaktimatām iha
"The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, the son of mother Yaśodā, is
acessible to devotees engaged in spontaneous loving service, but He is not as easily
acessible to mental speculators, to those striving for self-realization by severe
austerities and penances, or to those who consider the body the same as the self."*
Although the Lord is controlled by all His devotees, He especially places
Himself under the control of the devotees filled with spontaneous love for Him.
Therefore the path of spontaneous love (ruci-bhakti) is the best of all paths and
the devotees who follow this path are the best of all devotees.
