It is significant that He before whom the universe bows Himself bows His head to the feet of His aunt. Here greatness reveals itself in humility: the higher one's true worth, the deeper one's reverence toward elders. And Kunti responds not with awe but with a mother's tenderness — a kiss on the head. Thus scripture shows the mutual love between the Lord and His kin; and Krishna now turns to His sister.
