"There Krishna, together with Balarama, saw the broad and long-armed Ajatashatru sitting, surrounded by his brothers seated nearby, radiant as fires. And Vasudeva, approaching, said to the son of Kunti, the foremost upholder of dharma: 'I am Krishna' — falling at the feet of King Yudhishthira of the line of Ajamidha."

Here the Lord shows unspeakable humility, falling at the feet of His devotee. It is significant that Krishna, the Supreme Personality, bows to the feet of Yudhishthira: the Lord honors His devotee above Himself. Herein lies the wondrous truth of bhakti: God, above all, willingly humbles Himself before one who loves Him, and there is no higher honor for a devotee than the bow of the Lord Himself. Thus the scripture shows Krishna's humility as the seal of His love; and by falling at the feet of the king of dharma, He exalts devotion above all greatness.
