Maharaj Parikshit was perfectly self controlled and as such thus he situated himself. He sat down on the seat of straw with roots towards the east placed on the southern bank of the Ganges, facing himself on the northern side and previously having given the charge of administration on his son.

The river Ganges is celebrated to be known as the wife of the sea. The seat of Kusa straw is considered to be sanctified if the straw is taken out of the earth complete with root and the root side kept towards eastern direction is considered to be auspicious. Facing the northern side is still more favorable for attaining spiritual success. Maharaj Parikshit handed over the charge of administration to his son before his leaving the home. He was thus fully equipped for all favorable conditions.
