• muñjā-aṭavyām — in the Muñjā forest
  Compound: muñjā (a type of reed grass, sharp) + aṭavī (forest). A specific stage in Vraja's sacred geography — the same region the boys had earlier crossed in the Pralambāsura episode (SB 10.18); the līlā keeps returning to its proper grounds.
• bhraṣṭa-mārgam — who had lost their way
  Compound: bhraṣṭa (fallen-off) + mārga (path). Used for the cows here, but the term resonates with every Bhāgavatam reference to the lost soul (cf. SB 11.5.4 on bhraṣṭa-mārgāḥ). The Lord's friends are sent to retrieve them.
• go-dhanam — wealth in the form of cows
  Compound: go (cow) + dhana (wealth). Vraja's true currency. Gauḍīyas note: Kṛṣṇa Himself takes the title Go-vinda — pleaser of cows — because their well-being is the standing test of His sevā-relationship with Vraja.
• sannyavartayan — they turned them all back
  Causative of sam + ni + √vṛt — caused them to fully turn back. Nivṛtti — turning back from material entanglement — is the verb's underlying force; the boys re-enact, on the surface of līlā, the inner turning every sādhaka must learn.

The Muñjā forest is where the cows are finally found — lost, crying, recovered. The Gauḍīya reading is plain: every soul that wanders into the canes and reeds of saṁsāra is sought out, named, and turned homeward by the boys of Vraja under Kṛṣṇa's gaze. The path back is the path the cows know — toward the village where Yaśodā waits.
