The History of the Life of Ajāmila

parasyānte kṛtātmānaḥ praviśanti paraṁ padam
“Because of their exalted position, those who are on Brahmaloka at the time of dissolution go directly back home, back to Godhead, along with Lord Brahmā.”
TEXT 2
प्रश्रुत्तिलक्षणश्चैव त्रैगुण्यविषयो मने । योऽसवलीनप्रकृतेर्गुणसर्गः पुनः पुनः ॥ २ ॥
pravṛtti-lakṣaṇaś caiva traiguṇya-viṣayo mune yo 'sāv alīna-prakṛter guṇa-sargaḥ punaḥ punaḥ
pravṛtti —by inclination;  lakṣaṇaḥ —symptomized;  ca —also;  eva —indeed;  trai-guṇya —the three modes of nature;  viṣayaḥ —possessing as objectives;  mune —O great sage;  yaḥ —which;  asau —that;  alīna-prakṛteḥ —of one who is not freed from the clutches of  māyā ;  guṇa-sargaḥ —in which there is a creation of material bodies;  punaḥ punaḥ —again and again.
TRANSLATION
O great sage Śukadeva Gosvāmī, unless the living entity is freed from the infection of the material modes of nature, he receives different types of bodies in which to enjoy or suffer, and according to the body, he is understood to have various inclinations. By following these inclinations he traverses the path called  pravṛtti-mārga , by which one may be elevated to the heavenly planets, as you have already described [in the Third Canto].
PURPORT
As Lord Kṛṣṇa explains in  Bhagavad-gītā  (9.25):
yānti deva-vratā devān pitṛn yānti pitṛ-vratāḥ
