Dear Vaisnavas,

please accept my humble obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

 

I would like to put one small question. It is related to my understanding in

the Srimad Bhagavatam.

 

I wonder about how old was Maharaja Pariksit, when he dissapeared. I have

studied SB only, so I have no full information.

 

The reasons for my misunderstanding follows:

 

SB 1.8.8 Krsna starts to Dvaraka, but He is stopped by Uttara

(Pariksit was in her womb)

SB 1.8.17 Kunti starts her prayers (after protection of Pariksit)

SB 1.8.45 After accepting prayers...

SB 1.9.1 Yudhisthir goes to Kuruksetra (where Bhisma was)

SB 1.9.8 Sukadeva Gosvami was present

 

>From this seems that Sukadeva was present on Kuruksetra where Bhisma

disappears and Pariksit was still in the womb??!!

 

That is not so special, but Sukadeva Gosvami was 16 years old when Pariksit

was about to leave. (SB 1.19.26)

 

Question: How old was Maharaja Pariksit when he leaves his body.

 

 

I beg for you,

please anyone clear my misunderstanding.
