On the Principle of Keśava: Cosmogony and Divine Epithets
राजाप्येतेन विधिना भगवन्तं पितामहम् । यथैव द्विजशार्दूलस्तथैव प्राविशत् तदा,राजा इक्ष्वाकु भी उस श्रेष्ठ ब्राह्मणकी ही भाँति विधिपूर्वक भगवान् ब्रह्माजीके मुखारविन्दमें प्रविष्ट हो गये
bhīṣma uvāca | rājāpy etena vidhinā bhagavantaṃ pitāmaham | yathaiva dvijaśārdūlas tathaiva prāviśat tadā ||
毗湿摩说：“正以此一既定之法，国王亦得入于吉祥的毗多摩诃（Pitāmaha，梵天）之前。正如那位婆罗门中的雄狮所行，国王当时亦如是行——以同样的戒律与法度而趋入。”

Educational Q&A
Status does not override dharma: even a king must follow the same disciplined, scriptural procedure (vidhi) as a learned Brahmin when approaching the divine or a revered authority.
Bhishma describes how the king (identified in the traditional gloss as Ikṣvāku) approached/entered the presence of Brahmā (Pitāmaha) using the prescribed method, in the same manner as an exemplary Brahmin had done.
