Educational Q&A
This line functions as a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it teaches how the epic is organized into parvas and adhyāyas, marking completion and guiding the reader through the narrative’s structured transmission.
The narrator indicates that the chapter concerning Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s marriage has concluded within the Sambhava Parva of the Ādi Parva, signaling a transition to the next chapter/topic.
