सहदेवसुतो राजञ्छ्रुतकर्मा तथापरे । युधिष्ठिरात् तु पौरव्यां देवकोऽथ घटोत्कच: ॥ ३० ॥ भीमसेनाद्धिडिम्बायां काल्यां सर्वगतस्तत: । सहदेवात् सुहोत्रं तु विजयासूत पार्वती ॥ ३१ ॥
sahadeva-suto rājañ chrutakarmā tathāpare yudhiṣṭhirāt tu pauravyāṁ devako ’tha ghaṭotkacaḥ
จากภีมเสนะ ผ่านหิฑิมพา บังเกิดฆโฏตฺกจะ และผ่านกาลี บังเกิดสรรวคตะ. และผ่านวิชัยา ธิดาแห่งราชาแห่งขุนเขา สหเทวะได้โอรสชื่อ สุโหตร—ดังนี้ปาณฑพทั้งหลายจึงมีโอรสจากชายาอื่นด้วย.
Sarvagata is named here as a descendant of Bhīmasena (Bhīma), born through Hiḍimbā and associated with Kālī, as part of the Kuru dynasty genealogy in Canto 9, Chapter 22.
Śukadeva presents the dynastic lines to preserve dharmic history, show how righteous and renowned families continued, and situate later events in the Bhagavatam within a clear sacred lineage for Parīkṣit’s hearing.
They train the reader to see history through dharma—how choices, marriages, and responsibilities shape generations—encouraging integrity, accountability, and remembrance of sacred tradition.
