[26] tad etad adhigatya śīghram eva nāma-karaṇaṃ kartavyam iti sammatya śrīmantaṃ vasudevaṃ prati yadā śrī-vraja-naradevas tan nijam iṣṭaṃ sandiṣṭavān, tadā paramārtha-vicāreṇa mitra-putratārha-samadhika-bahir-vyavahāreṇa cānujasya śatatamaṃ vāsaram eva tad-avasaraṃ niścinvan, śrī-vasudevaḥ śrī-vrajarājaṃ prati yathāvasaraṃ tan nivedayiṣyāma ity aniścinvann iva sandideśa | atha tapo-dhāmānaṃ garga-nāmānam ātmanaḥ parama-hitaṃ kula-purohitaṃ manasi sammatya rahasi saṅgatya nija-tanaya-vinimaya-mayaṃ vṛttaṃ vitatya nivedayāmāsa | sa ca sahāsam āha sma, "tad etad aparam apy ahaṃ nānā-vṛttaṃ jānāmy eva | sampraty atra mat-kṛtyaṃ tv ājñāpyatām |"

Having understood this and agreeing that the name-giving ceremony must be performed quickly, when the noble king of Vraja sent his wish to the illustrious Vasudeva, then Śrī Vasudeva, discerning by ultimate truth and by outer conduct appropriate to a friend's son that the hundredth day of his younger son was indeed the proper occasion for it, sent word to the king of Vraja as if undecided, saying, ‘We will convey it as the occasion arises.’ Then, calling to mind his supreme benefactor and family priest named Garga, an abode of asceticism, he met him in secret and recounted to him the full story concerning the exchange of his sons. And Garga smiled and said, ‘I already know that as well as various other matters. Now, just command what I am to do here.’
