Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it teaches indirectly by emphasizing textual and ethical framing—placing Galava’s episode within the Udyoga Parvan’s larger concern with right conduct, negotiation, and the moral weight of decisions made on the brink of conflict.

What is happening in the narrative?

The chapter concludes. The colophon identifies the work (Mahābhārata), the book (Udyoga Parvan), the sub-section (Bhagavad-yāna), and the episode (Galava’s story), and states that this is the 119th chapter.
