Sañjaya on Janārdana’s Decisive Sovereignty

Devanagari script

इति श्रीमहाभारते उद्योगपर्वणि यानसंधिपर्वणि व्यासगान्धार्यागमने सप्तषष्टितमो<ध्याय:

Transliteration

iti śrīmahābhārate udyogaparvaṇi yānasandhiparvaṇi vyāsagāndhāryāgamane saptaṣaṣṭitamo 'dhyāyaḥ

Translation

Thus, in the Śrī Mahābhārata, within the Udyoga Parva—specifically the section on the mission and negotiations—ends the sixty-seventh chapter, describing Vyāsa’s coming to Gāndhārī. The colophon signals a transition: after counsel and deliberation, the narrative turns toward a morally weighty encounter meant to guide conduct and avert ruin through wise admonition.
