Translation
Following after the Lord’s processions (verse 85), from Bhaviṣyottara Purāṇa: All the outcastes who go along with the chariot— beside, behind or in front of it—become similar to Viṣṇu.
Purport (Jiva Goswami)
The chariot represents also palanquins (mentioned already in the previous verse) or other vehicles.
Purport (Nectar of Devotion)
Following the Deity
A similar statement is there in the Bhaviṣya Purāṇa, in which it is said, “Even if born of a lowly family, a person who follows the Ratha-yātrā car when the Deities pass in front or from behind will surely be elevated to the position of achieving equal opulence with Viṣṇu.”
