iṣṭekṣaṇena, yathā śrī-daśame– govindaṁ gṛham ānīya deva-deveśam ādṛtaḥ | pūjāyāṁ nāvidat kṛtyaṁ pramādopahato nṛpaḥ ||110||

Translation

From seeing the object of desire, from the Tenth Canto: King Yudhiṣṭhira respectfully brought Lord Govinda, the Supreme God of gods, to his personal quarters. The King was so overcome with joy that he could not remember all the rituals of worship. SB 10.71.40

Purport (Nectar of Devotion)

In the Tenth Canto, Seventy-first Chapter, verse 39, of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, there is an account of King Yudhiṣṭhira’s bewilderment after his bringing Kṛṣṇa into his home with the greatest respect. King Yudhiṣṭhira was very much bewildered because of his transcendental pleasure at having Kṛṣṇa present in his house. In fact, while receiving Kṛṣṇa, King Yudhiṣṭhira forgot himself. This is an instance of inertia resulting from the ecstasy of seeing Kṛṣṇa.
