The verse functions as a colophon, signaling the completion of a chapter whose ethical emphasis is dharma taught through an illustrative sub-tale (upākhyāna), here connected with the ascetic livelihood/practice termed ucchavṛttikā.
No new narrative action occurs; the text formally closes the chapter in the Śānti Parva, identifying its placement (within the Gokṣa-dharma section) and its subject (the ucchavṛttikā-related episode).
