Krishna’s Entry into Hastināpura and Court Reception

Devanagari script

इति श्रीमहाभारते उद्योगपर्वणि भगवद्यानपर्वणि दुर्योधनवाक्ये अष्टाशीतितमो<ध्याय:

Transliteration

iti śrīmahābhārate udyogaparvaṇi bhagavadyānaparvaṇi duryodhanavākye aṣṭāśītitamo 'dhyāyaḥ

Translation

وهكذا، في «شري مهابهاراتا»، ضمن «أوديُوغا بارفا»، ولا سيما في قسم «بهاگافَد-يانا» (المهمة الإلهية)، في سياق خطاب دوريوذانا، ينتهي الفصل الثامن والثمانون. وهذه خاتمةٌ (colophon) تُثبت إغلاق وحدةٍ سردية، وتضع القارئ في توترٍ أخلاقيٍّ وسياسيٍّ ناجمٍ عن فشل المصالحة، بما يدفع الحكاية نحو الحرب.

Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it teaches how the Mahābhārata frames events—by clearly locating speeches and episodes—highlighting accountability in political-ethical discourse (here, Duryodhana’s stance within the failed peace mission that precedes war).

What is happening in the narrative?

The text signals the conclusion of a chapter in the Udyoga Parva, within the Bhagavad-yāna section, specifically the portion centered on Duryodhana’s words. It functions as an editorial boundary before the narrative proceeds to the next chapter.
