Most of the demigods and other higher beings led by Brahmā could not see Lord Kṛṣṇa as He was entering His own abode, since He did not reveal His movements. But some of them did catch sight of Him, and they were extremely amazed.

Translation
The devatās, headed by Brahmā could not see Kṛṣṇa in his Nārāyaṇa expansion as he entered his abode. [Note: As explained in the commentaries on SB 11.1.4 and SB 11.6.26, the Nārāyaṇa expansion went to Prabhāsa and departed for Vaikuṇṭha whereas Kṛṣṇa and Balarāma actually remained in Dvārakā. ] Some, however, saw this with amazement. When the Lord disappeared, even those with all knowledge wondered where he went. Brahmā and other devatās did not see Kṛṣṇa going to his abode. Some persons however did see, and were amazed.
