Entry into Vāraṇāvata and Suspicion of the Lac-House

So endet im Śrī Mahābhārata, innerhalb des Ādi Parva—genauer im Sambhava Parva—das hundertdreiunddreißigste Kapitel, das von der Vorführung der Waffen und der kriegerischen Kunst handelt. Diese Schlussformel bezeichnet das Ende der Begebenheit, in der Waffenkönnen zur Schau gestellt wird, und kündet voraus, wie geschulte Fertigkeit, verbunden mit Ehrgeiz und Rivalität, zur sittlichen Prüfung für Herrscher wie für Verwandte werden kann.

Educational Q&A
This is a colophon concluding the chapter: it highlights that the narrative segment is about the public demonstration of martial skill. Ethically, it signals that mastery of weapons is not value-neutral—its public display can intensify pride, competition, and political tension, setting the stage for dharmic challenges in governance and kinship.
The text is formally closing the chapter in the Ādi Parva (Sambhava Parva) whose theme is the demonstration of weapons and combat skills. It functions as an editorial/narrative boundary marker rather than a spoken dialogue line with new plot action.
