Glorious Kings!

Verse 1.17.17 (Srinivas Acharya Prji):

* In this verse, the personification of dharma is glorifying Maharaj PArikshit and his fore-fathers, to a very great extent, that even the SPG Lord Sri Krishna did services like being a messenger and a chariot driver for them.
* SP comments nicely: He was not falsely proud, for a devotee of the Lord is equally as powerful as the Lord or sometimes more powerful by His grace, and any promise made by a devotee, though it may be ordinarily very difficult to fulfill, is properly executed by the grace of the Lord.
* Lord also takes pleasure in doing such services to His pure devotees.
* Only devotees would become the family members of the great devotees, the Pandavas. Example is Uttara, upon her prayers, Lord Krishna protected MP in Uttara's womb itself.
* The Supreme Lord is not attained by past experiences etc, He is only attained when He Himself chooses to come.
* So here, Maharaj Parikshit (MP) is so devoted, that Krishna Himself chose to give His darshan to MP and save him.
* Here, Dharma is glorifying MP as a great King in the Pandava dynasty. The king before him was MY. SP said the best of the best of the Kings were just 2 - Lord Ramachandra and Maharaj Yudhistira (MY).
* People of the whole kingdom, even nature was very very happy under MY's rule. Glories of MY is also unlimited.
* Sometimes even Krishna used to touch the feet of MY, as he was elder to Krishna. He was also so happy with the Pandavas, that Krishna made him the King of the whole earth and they ruled for 36 years.
