Educational Q&A
This is a colophon concluding a chapter whose theme is the disciplined conduct and ethical governance expected of a king intent on victory—implying that success in rule should be grounded in rājadharma (just policy, self-control, and proper statecraft), not mere aggression.
The text signals the end of an instructional chapter within the Śānti Parva’s Rājadharmānuśāsana section. It functions as an editorial closure rather than a spoken verse, summarizing the chapter’s subject and marking its completion.
