TRANSLATION
They attained the spiritual sky which is dominated by the Supreme Narayana Lord Krishna by pure consciousness due to constant remembrance in devotion. This is attained by them only who are fixed up in one supreme Lord without deviation. Such abode of the Lord Sri Krishna, known as Goloka Vrindaban, is not attainable by persons who are absorbed in material conceptions of life but the Pandavas being completely washed off from all material contamination attained the place in the very self-same body.
