Śaineya–Bhūriśravas: Genealogy, Svayaṃvara Contest, and the Maheśvara Boon

इस प्रकार श्रीमहाभारत द्रोणपर्वके अन्तर्गत जयद्रथवधपर्वरें सात्यकिके कौरव-सेनामें प्रवेशके पश्चात्‌ दुर्योधन और कृतवमाकि पराजयविषयक एक सौ सोलहवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ

iti prakāraṁ śrīmahābhārate droṇaparvake antargataṁ jayadrathavadhaparvaṇi sātyakinaḥ kaurava-senāyāṁ praveśān paścāt duryodhana-kṛtavarmā-parājaya-viṣayakaḥ ṣoḍaśottara-śatatamo ’dhyāyaḥ samāptaḥ

قال سنجيا: هكذا، في «المهابهارتا» الجليلة، ضمن «دروṇa بارفا»—وخاصة في القسم المتعلق بقتل جايادراثا—يُختَتم هذا الفصل السادس عشر بعد المئة، واصفًا كيف إن ساتياكي، بعد أن شقّ طريقه قسرًا إلى داخل جيش الكورافا، أوقع دوريوذانا وكريتافَرما في الهزيمة. وتؤكد خاتمة الفصل اندفاع الحرب الذي لا يلين، حيث يتصادم البأس والتدبير، وحيث تتجلى عواقب العناد المدفوع بالأدهرما في صورة انقلاباتٍ على ساحة القتال.

Educational Q&A

As a colophon-style conclusion, the passage does not teach through direct instruction but frames the ethical arc of the war: when leadership is driven by stubbornness and adharma, even powerful figures face reversals. It highlights how individual valor (Sātyaki’s breakthrough) can shift outcomes, yet remains embedded in the larger moral causality of the epic.

The text marks the end of a chapter in the Droṇa Parva, within the Jayadratha-slaying section. It summarizes that after Sātyaki penetrated the Kaurava battle array/army, the chapter’s subject includes the defeat of Duryodhana and Kṛtavarmā, and then formally declares the chapter complete.
