Educational Q&A
The verse as presented functions mainly as a narrative/concluding marker: it underscores irresistible divine power (amita-tejas, vajra) and frames the chapter as part of Kṛṣṇa’s instructive dialogue with Yudhiṣṭhira in the post-war, dharma-centered context of the Aśvamedha.
A figure is described as being slain by a thunderbolt wielded by a being of immeasurable splendor; immediately after, the colophon states that the eleventh chapter—focused on the Kṛṣṇa–Yudhiṣṭhira dialogue within the Aśvamedha section of the Āśvamedhika Parva—has concluded.
