Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is not a doctrinal teaching but a colophon indicating the completion of a chapter; its function is editorial and structural, helping readers track divisions in the narrative.

What is happening in the narrative?

The narrative momentarily pauses: the text signals that the thirty-sixth chapter of the Bhīṣma Parva has concluded. It does not advance plot events by itself.
