गोविन्द भाष्य (श्रील बलदेव विद्याभूषण - अचिन्त्यभेदाभेद वेदान्त ब्रह्मसूत्र भाष्य सटीक)

Candraloka. Why not? The sūtra explains that only they who perform pious deeds or are situated in true knowledge (vidyā-karmaṇoḥ) travel to the worlds of the devas and pitās. That is the description of the scriptures (prakṛtatvāt). In the Chāndogya Upaniṣad (5.10.1) it is said that they who are situated in knowledge travel on the path to the devas.

The sūtra explains: "tathopalabdheḥ" (because it is so perceived). This means: "Because the Śruti-śāstra affirms that it is so." In the Chāndogya Upaniṣad the following question is posed: yathāsau loko na sampūryate "Do you know why the world never becomes filled?" The answer is given (Chāndogya Upaniṣad 5.10.8):
