Droṇa-parva Adhyāya 114 — Karṇa–Bhīmasena Missile Exchange, Disarmament, and Arjuna’s Intervention
इति श्रीमहाभारते द्रोणपर्वणि जयद्रथवधपर्वणि सात्यकिक््रवेशे दादशाधिकशततमो<ध्याय:
iti śrīmahābhārate droṇaparvaṇi jayadrathavadhaparvaṇi sātyakipraveśe dvādaśādhikaśatatamo 'dhyāyaḥ
Thus, in the Śrī Mahābhārata, within the Droṇa Parva—specifically in the sub-section concerning the slaying of Jayadratha—this concludes the one-hundred-and-twelfth chapter, themed around Sātyaki’s entry.
संजय उवाच
This line is a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it teaches indirectly by framing the episode as part of a vow-driven, consequence-laden war narrative—where loyalty and retributive aims intensify violence, raising enduring questions about dharma under extreme conflict.
The text marks the close of a chapter in Droṇa Parva, within the Jayadratha-slaying section, identifying the chapter’s focus as Sātyaki’s entry/advance—an editorial/narrative boundary statement rather than spoken battlefield dialogue.
