Educational Q&A
That remembering and reciting the names of exemplary righteous kings (rājarṣis) is itself a dharmic practice: it inspires ethical kingship, reinforces reverence for dharma, and is presented as a source of religious merit (puṇya).
Bhīṣma continues a catalog of celebrated royal sages, naming several kings in succession. The verse functions as part of a longer litany intended for remembrance/recitation, framing these rulers as models of valor and righteousness.
