PURPORT

The Supreme Personality of Godhead in His Paramatma feature is
situated in everyone’s heart. He knows, therefore, the past, present and
future of every individual person as well as his desires, activities and
everything about him. It is stated in Bhagavad-gita that He is seated in the
heart as a witness. The Personality of Godhead knew the heart’s desire of
Kardama Muni, and He had already arranged for the fulfillment of his
desires. He never disappoints a sincere devotee, regardless of what he wants,
but He never allows anything which will be detrimental to the individual’s
devotional service.
