घृतपाश्चैव साध्याश्च यत्र देवाः सनातनाः । ते तत्र गत्वा मुनयो ददृशुः सुरभीसुतम्
ghṛtapāścaiva sādhyāśca yatra devāḥ sanātanāḥ | te tatra gatvā munayo dadṛśuḥ surabhīsutam
Là se trouvaient les buveurs de ghṛta et les Sādhyas aussi, là où demeurent les dieux éternels. S’y étant rendus, les sages virent le fils de Surabhī.

Goloka remains the glorified divine abode where eternal devas and Sādhyas are present.
None; the verse emphasizes darśana as a spiritual culmination rather than a specific rite.
