Priyavrat had children and he ruled for 110 million years; however, he was known as ātmārām mahābhāgwat (devotee of God who identifies himself as the ātmā). Though he followed the path of gruhasthāshram, he was never satiated listening to the talks of God - therefore, he was considered a great devotee. Maharaj praised Priyavrat and Prahlādji often.
