TRANSLATION
My dear Maharaja Yudhisthira, you Pandavas are so very fortu-
nate in this world that many, many great saints, who can purify all
the planets of the universe, come to your house just like ordinary
visitors. Furthermore, the Supreme Personality of Godhead,
Krsna, is living confidentially with you in your house, just like
your brother.
PURPORT
Here is a statement exalting a Vaisnava. In human society, a
braéhmana is the most respected person. A brdhmana is one who can
understand Brahman, the impersonal Brahman, but hardly ever can one
understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is described by
Arjuna in Bhagavad-gita as param brahma. A bréhmana may be ex-
tremely fortunate in having achieved brahma-jndna, but the Pandavas
were so exalted that the Parabrahman, the Supreme Personality of God-
head, was living in their house like an ordinary human being. The word
bhiri-bhagah indicates that the Pandavas were in a still higher position
than brahmacaris and brahmanas. In the following verses, Narada Muni
repeatedly glorifies the position of the Pandavas.
