I read that King Kakudmi with his daughter Revati reached Brahma Loka experiencing time-dilation. Can anyone tell me how they managed to travel?

@What do you mean by valid brahmachari? I don't have deep knowledge regarding saints but I believe brahmachari is the one who never gets married. If this is true then how one can do kanya-daan to him?– VishvamCommented Jun 17, 2017 at 12:25

King Kakudmi reached Brahma Loka with his daughter Revathi with the help of his yogic powers
It can be inferred from the following words of Narada:
prapto yoga-balenapi brahmalokam shubhavaham kanya-varam pariprashöum brahmanam prananama ha
By his mystic power he traveled to Brahmaloka. His intention to ask for a proper husband for his daughter, he bowed before the god Brahma

2I find that vague. What are mystic yogic powers? Have other people used yogic powers?– Wikash_Commented Jun 20, 2020 at 22:40

Yes, Yogic power, as told in Sanskrit. You can also read about Krishna-Arjuna meeting Lord Siva from the Mahabharata. @Wikash_– hanugmCommented Jun 21, 2020 at 2:39
