Droṇa-parva Adhyāya 109 — Karṇa–Bhīma Yuddha and Durmukha’s Fall (कर्णभीमयुद्धम्; दुर्मुखवधः)
इस प्रकार श्रीमहाभारत द्रोणपर्वके अन्तर्गत जयद्रथवधपर्वमें युधिष्चटिरका पलायनविषयक एक सौ छवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ
iti prakāraṁ śrīmahābhārate droṇaparvake antargataṁ jayadrathavadhaparvaṇi yudhiṣṭhirikā-palāyana-viṣayaka ekaśata-ṣaṣṭhaḥ adhyāyaḥ pūrṇaḥ
Sanjaya said: Thus, in the Śrī Mahābhārata, within the Droṇa Parva—specifically in the section concerning the slaying of Jayadratha—the one hundred and sixth chapter, dealing with Yudhiṣṭhira’s flight, is concluded. The narration marks a formal closure of a chapter set amid the moral strain of war, where survival, duty, and strategic withdrawal are weighed against ideals of steadfastness and kingship.
