Sañjaya said: “Thus, in the Śrī Mahābhārata, within the Droṇa Parva, in the section on the slaying of Droṇa, the one-hundred-and-ninety-second chapter concerning Droṇa’s death is concluded.” This colophon marks the formal close of the chapter that narratively frames the fall of a great teacher in war, highlighting the grave ethical weight carried by battlefield decisions and their consequences.
