According to Hindu material I have read on the web....Parikshat, Janmejay, Shesanand, and Satanand were Kings of the Pandaw lineage.
Parikshat is said to be the grandson of Arjun. However, this is the interesting part. While Parikshat was in his mothers womb, it is said that the baby was targeted by a divine weapon. Therefore, Krishna intervened and actually went inside the womb to protect the baby. When the baby was born, it was near death, but Krishna appeared physically and saved the child (he said that Light cannot be overcome by darkness). Perhaps this implies that the baby Parikshat was a being of Light? Maybe this whole story is a cover-up, and what really happened is that Parikshit is the descendant of Krishna in reality, but not in appearance, like Imam Hassan II.
In that case, the Imams after Krishna were Pandaw kings by their mother's side, but from Krishna on the father's side - unbeknownst to the public.
Equally, some of the names of our first few Imams of the Cycle of Adam are different in some manuscripts of sister satpanth branches.
It is unfortunate that each time someone comes with this kind of information, others who have no knowledge of the continuity of Imamat would try to choke the subject.

1) Thanks
2) Interesting, do you have name of them, which satpanth branches?
3) This time it's from a persian source so I think THAT GUY shouldn't have any problem with it.
Name of Imams after Imam Hunaid till Imam Abu Talib from the same persian source.
I can see alot of new names as compare to in the Vishnupuri, according to it Hazrat Ibrahim, Adam and Noah were also the Imam of the time and I can't see the name of Imam Malik us Salam/ Malchezedek in the list, or maybe it's there with a different name.

Actually I am traveling so it is not handi. It was part of the Du'a manuscript whch said Hajar Jomo Imam Chalismo (40th Imama Nizar) so it may be Ismaili (us), Imam Shahi, Nizar Panthi, Athias... who knows. I will look at it again once I return at base.
As per this list, is it safe to say that concept of Pre Ali and Pre Adam Imamat is not only limited to the Satpanthis but it's also present in the Persian Jamat or maybe in other Jamat as well.
