Transliteration
haimāḥ kilopakaraṇā varuṇasya yathā purā indrādayo loka-pālā viriñci-bhava-saṁyutāḥ
Translation
祭祀所用器具皆为黄金，正如往昔伐楼那天神所行王祭一般。因陀罗等诸世界守护者，与梵天、湿婆同来；诸悉达与乾闼婆率众而至；又有持明者、巨蛇、圣仙、夜叉与罗刹、天鸟、紧那罗、查罗那；并且人间诸王与王后也尽皆受邀，从四方汇聚于般度之子犹提士提罗王的王祭。见此盛大富丽，他们毫不惊异，因为这正合乎一位克里希纳圣 भक्त的身份。

Śrī KṛṣṇaFAQs
Because Yudhiṣṭhira was Pāṇḍu’s son and a devotee of Śrī Kṛṣṇa; therefore everyone naturally honored his Rājasūya as fully appropriate and came to witness it.
The verse highlights that his legitimacy and greatness were rooted in devotion to Kṛṣṇa—making the royal sacrifice and universal respect spiritually meaningful, not merely political.
It teaches that devotion to Kṛṣṇa brings genuine honor and harmony—leadership, success, or influence becomes truly “fitting” when grounded in bhakti and dharma.
