In the sacrifice arranged by Mahārāja Ambarīṣa, the members of the assembly and the priests [especially hotā, udgātā, brahmā and adhvaryu] were gorgeously dressed, and they all looked exactly like demigods. They eagerly saw to the proper performance of the yajṣa.
Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura Gauḍīya
Translation
In the sacrifice arranged by Mahārāja Ambarīṣa, the members of the assembly and the priests, all well dressed, looked at the sacrifice with unblinking eyes like the devatās. They were equivalent to devatās. One cannot say that the devatās are unique because their eyes do not blink. At these sacrifices the assembly stood with unblinking eyes also at seeing the extraordinary sacrifices.
