Sātyaki Pressed by Kauravas; Duryodhana and Kṛtavarmā Engagements
इस प्रकार श्रीमहाभारत द्रोणपर्वके अन्तर्गत जयद्रथवधपर्वमें अर्जुनयुद्धविषयक नवासीवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ
Iti prakāraḥ Śrīmahābhārate Droṇaparvake antargataṃ Jayadrathavadhaparvaṇi Arjunayuddhaviṣayakaḥ navāśītitamo 'dhyāyaḥ pūrṇaḥ.
Sañjaya sprach: So endet im Śrī Mahābhārata, innerhalb des Droṇa Parva—im Abschnitt über die Tötung Jayadrathas—das neunundachtzigste Kapitel, das von Arjunas Kampf handelt.
संजय उवाच
As a colophon, the verse primarily teaches attentiveness to textual structure: it marks the completion of a unit of narration focused on Arjuna’s warfare within the larger ethical frame of the Kurukṣetra conflict, where duty (dharma) and consequence are continually weighed.
The narrator Sañjaya signals that the chapter dealing with Arjuna’s battle—situated in Droṇa Parva under the Jayadratha-slaying section—has ended, serving as a formal transition point before the next chapter.
