iti śrīmahābhārate bhīṣmaparvaṇi bhīṣmavadhaparvaṇi haiḍimbayuddhe ekanavatitamo 'dhyāyaḥ || 91 ||

قال سانجيا: هكذا، في «شري مهابهاراتا»، ضمن «بهِيشما بارفا»—وخاصة في القسم المتعلق بمصرع بهِيشما—تُختَتم هذه السورة/الفصل الحادي والتسعون، المتناول للقتال الذي شارك فيه الهايدِمبا (غاتوتكاتشا). وهذه الخاتمة (الكولوفون) تُثبت نهاية الفصل وتُؤطِّر الحادثة ضمن المسار الأوسع للأبعاد الأخلاقية والتدبير الحربي في هذه الحرب، حيث تُستدعى قوى الأبطال العجيبة إلى صراع تتصاعد رهاناته على نحو متزايد.

Educational Q&A

This verse is a colophon rather than a doctrinal instruction: it teaches how the epic self-organizes its narrative—placing particular battles and heroes within a larger ethical and strategic arc of the Kurukṣetra war, and signaling closure and continuity through formal markers.

Sañjaya formally concludes the chapter, identifying it as the ninety-first chapter within the Bhīṣma Parva, in the portion connected with Bhīṣma’s eventual fall, and noting that the chapter’s focus is the Haiḍimba (Ghaṭotkaca)-related battle.
