Pāṇḍu’s Asceticism, the Doctrine of Debts, and Deliberations on Progeny
इस प्रकार श्रीमह्याभारत आदिपर्वके अन्तर्गत सम्भवपर्वनें धृतराष्ट्रविवाहविषयक एक सौ नवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ
iti prakāraḥ śrīmahābhārata ādiparvake antargataḥ sambhavaparvaṇe dhṛtarāṣṭravivāhaviṣayaka ekaśata navamo 'dhyāyaḥ pūrṇaḥ
وهكذا تنتهي الفَصْلُ التاسعُ بعد المئة من «سَمْبهافا بَرْفا» ضمن «آدي بَرْفا» من «المهابهاراتا» الموقَّرة، في شأن زواج دْهْرِتَراشْتْرَ (Dhṛtarāṣṭra). وهذه الخاتمةُ (الكولوفون) تُثبت تمامَ وحدةٍ سردية، وتُشير إلى الانتقال إلى الجزء التالي من رواية الأنساب والأصول.

Educational Q&A
This line functions as a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it teaches how the epic is organized into parvas and adhyāyas, marking completion and guiding the reader through the narrative’s structured transmission.
The narrator indicates that the chapter concerning Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s marriage has concluded within the Sambhava Parva of the Ādi Parva, signaling a transition to the next chapter/topic.
