Sri Krishna instructed Bheemasena
Sri Krishna instructed Bheemasena to bow to visible demi-gods, elderly people (people who are older to him in age) and people who are higher to him by relation in order to protect the rules followed in the mortal world.
Notes
1. Mahabharata records that Bheemasena used to bow to demi-gods, mother Kunti and other relatives when he met them. This answers the question – “Isn’t bowing to others (other than Sri Hari) an example of breach of dharma .Bheema bowed to them on the instructions of Sri Krishna. The purpose behind Sri Krishna instructing so was to educate the world and make them understand that showing respect (bowing) to demi-gods and elderly relatives is a Dharma. Even Sri Krishna has shown respect and prostrated to Vasudeva and others and has educated the world. Therefore these incidents cannot be an example for breach of Dharma
