Another beauty is, Bheeshma’s vision of the Lord as the Omnipresent Chaithanyam in every thing. As long as we see God as a person, separate from ourselves, we cannot transcend the fear of death. So, we can see that Krishna’s compassion saves the grandfather and the grandson simultaneously.

Dharmaputra’s rule re-established the “Dharmarajyam” in the country. Mother Nature blessed the land lavishly and every one was very happy. Bhagavatham describes the noble ways he ruled the country and protected his people like a father.

As we can recall, Uthara’s child was saved by Lord Krishna from Aswathama’s Brahmamastram. Now Mother Kunthi and Uthara requested to Krishna to protect the child who was still in the womb. So, He gave Darshan to the child (entering her womb) in the “Chathurbhuja” form. Thus He protected even the unborn baby. In the due course of time, Uthara gave birth to her child and he was named “Parikshith’ signifying the TESTS he had undergone even before he was born.
