The Exploits of Śaineya/Sātyaki amid Encirclement
इस प्रकार श्रीमह्ाभारत द्रोणपर्वके अन्तर्गत जयद्रथवधपर्वनें दुर्योधनका कवच- बन्धनविषयक चौरानबेवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ
Iti prakāraḥ Śrīmahābhārate Droṇaparvake antargataṃ Jayadrathavadhaparvaṇi Duryodhanasya kavaca-bandhana-viṣayakaś caturānnavatamo ’dhyāyaḥ pūrṇaḥ abhavat.
So endet im Śrī Mahābhārata, innerhalb des Droṇa Parva—im Abschnitt über die Tötung Jayadrathas—das vierundneunzigste Kapitel, das vom Festzurren von Duryodhanas Rüstung handelt.
संजय उवाच
As a colophon, the verse does not teach through direct instruction; it highlights the epic’s ethical atmosphere by underscoring how, in war, leaders focus on protection and readiness even as consequences of prior choices tighten. The mention of armor-fastening points to the human impulse to secure oneself amid unfolding destiny and moral conflict.
This is an end-of-chapter notice: it states that the ninety-fourth chapter within the Droṇa Parva, in the Jayadratha-slaying section, has concluded, and that the chapter’s topic concerned the fastening/binding of Duryodhana’s armor.
