His paternal uncle became his guru.

In 1433 Saka, when MahAprabhu was celebrating CaturmAsya vratam in Vyenkata BhaTTa's house, GopAl BhaTTa served Lord GaurAnga & took initiation from his paternal uncle ZrI PrabodhAnanda Sarasvati.

GopAl BhaTTa's parents too surrendered at Lord GaurAnga's Lotus Feet.

After permitting GopAl BhaTTa to proceed to VRndAvan, they left their mortal coil, remembering Lord GaurAnga's Lotus Feet.

If only 3 persons understood the 'ayi dina-dayArdra' verse, does that mean all 6 GoswAmIs did NOT!?
