Shloka 195
मनुरुवाच — इन्द्रिय-मनः-ज्ञान-क्रमः
Manu on the hierarchy of senses, mind, and knowledge
इस प्रकार श्रीमहाभारत शान्तिपर्वके अन्तर्गत गोक्षधर्मपर्वमें ध्यानयोगका वर्णनविषयक एक सौ पज्चानबेवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ
iti prakāraṃ śrīmahābhārata-śānti-parva-antargata-gokṣa-dharma-parvaṇi dhyāna-yogasya varṇana-viṣayakaḥ eka-śata-pañcāna-navati-tamaḥ adhyāyaḥ pūrṇaḥ
وهكذا تنتهي في «المهابهاراتا» المباركة، ضمن «بارفا السِّلم» (Śānti Parva)، في قسم «غوكشا-دهرما» (Gokṣa-dharma)، الفصلُ الخامسُ والتسعون بعد المئة، وهو الذي يصف «يوغا التأمّل» (Dhyāna-yoga). (وهذا خاتمةٌ تُعلن تمامَ فصلٍ من التعليم الأخلاقي والتأمّلي، وتُبرز التأمّلَ بوصفه رياضةً ملازمةً للدهرما وضبطِ الباطن بعد فواجع الحرب.)
भीष्म उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse is a colophon marking the completion of a chapter devoted to dhyāna-yoga (meditative discipline). Its core message is structural rather than doctrinal: it frames meditation as a recognized and authoritative component of dharma-teaching within Śānti Parva’s post-war ethical instruction.
This line functions as an editorial/narrative closure: it announces that the chapter on the description of meditation-yoga has concluded within the Gokṣa-dharma section of Śānti Parva. It signals a transition point to the next unit of Bhīṣma’s instruction.
