Vallabh was not a man to become quiet and though obstructed in many ways he began fearlessly to place his conclusions in the form of Brahmavada before the learned society when ever he founds the opportunity to do so. After a complete and careful study in the Bhashyas Vallabh took to his mind to preach this Brahmavada first among the learned men of Benares.
