dṛṣá¹vÄ - thus seeing; nipatitam - lying down; bhÅ«mau - on the ground; divaḥ - from the sky; cyutam - fallen; iva - like; amaram - demigod; praṇemuḥ - bowed down; pÄṇá¸avÄḥ - the sons of PÄṇá¸u; bhīṣmam - unto Bhīṣma; sa-anugÄḥ - with the younger brothers; saha - also with; cakriá¹‡Ä - the Lord (carrying the disc).
Lord Kṛṣṇa was also a younger cousin of MahÄrÄja Yudhiá¹£á¹hira as well as the intimate friend of Arjuna. But all the family members of the PÄṇá¸avas knew Lord Kṛṣṇa as the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Lord, although conscious of His supreme position, always behaved in a humanly custom, and so He also bowed down before the dying Bhīṣmadeva as if He were one of the younger brothers of King Yudhiá¹£á¹hira.
