Maharaja Pariksit was a realist, like the bees who only accept the essence (of a flower). He knew perfectly well that in this age of Kali, auspicious things produce good effects immediately, whereas inauspicious acts must be actually performed (to render effects). So he was never envious of the personality of Kali.
