observing the powerful vow of perpetual celibacy.
If the brahmacārī student desires to ascend to the Maharloka or Brahmaloka planets, then he should completely surrender his activities to the spiritual master and, observing the powerful vow of perpetual celibacy, dedicate himself to superior Vedic studies.
Purport
One who desires the supreme perfection of life must engage his body, mind and words in the service of a bona fide spiritual master. One desiring elevation to superior planets such as Brahmaloka and Maharloka must fully engage in the spiritual master’s service. We can thus imagine the sincerity of purpose and service required to achieve the Kṛṣṇaloka planet, which lies far beyond the material universe.

Translation
If the brahmacārī desires to ascend to the Brahmaloka, the planet of the Vedas, then he should completely surrender himself to the guru for further study of the Vedas, and observe a vow of permanent celibacy,
Having described the duties of a brahmacārī who takes up household life, Kṛṣṇa describes the duties of the life-long brahmacārī in six verses. If he desires to go to Brahma-loka, the planet of the Vedas, he should remain a brahmacārī for life and offer his body to the guru for additional study of the Vedas. Viṣṭapa like piṣṭapa means “world.”
