the destination of the devotee (going back home, back to Godhead).
Freed from all hatred and desire, Kardama Muni, being equal to everyone because of discharging uncontaminated devotional service, ultimately attained the path back to Godhead.
Purport
As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, only by devotional service can one understand the transcendental nature of the Supreme Lord and, after understanding Him perfectly in His transcendental position, enter into the kingdom of God. The process of entering into the kingdom of God is tri-pāda-bhūti-gati, or the path back home, back to Godhead, by which one can attain the ultimate goal of life. Kardama Muni, by his perfect devotional knowledge and service, achieved this ultimate goal, which is known as bhāgavatī gatiḥ.
Thus end the Bhaktivedanta purports of the Third Canto, Twenty-fourth Chapter, of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, entitled “The Renunciation of Kardama Muni.”

Translation
Free from desire and hatred towards everything in the material world, with mind seeing everything as equal, by pure bhakti for the Lord, Kardama attained the position of an associate of the Lord in the spiritual world.
He was free of desire and hatred because everything in the material world is inferior. Because of that, he saw everything equally. He then attained the goal of becoming an associate of the Lord (bhagavatī gatiḥ). Another version has bhāgavatīm gatiṁ prāptaḥ: Kardama, with an equal mind, attained that spiritual goal.
Thus ends the commentary on Twenty-fourth Chapter of the Third Canto of the Bhāgavatam for the pleasure of the devotees, in accordance with the previous ācāryas.
