Educational Q&A
As a colophon, the verse does not teach through direct instruction but frames the episode ethically: cattle are a community’s wealth and a king’s responsibility to protect; public victory-claims (jayaghoṣa) must be weighed against the justice of the cause and the reality of events.
The text marks the completion of the thirty-fourth chapter of the Goharaṇa episode within the Virāṭa Parva, summarizing that it concerned the carrying off of cattle from the southern direction and matters connected with King Virāṭa’s victory proclamation.
