अर्जुनस्य तीर्थयात्रा तथा मणलूर-सम्बन्धः
Arjuna’s Pilgrimage and the Maṇalūra Alliance
इस प्रकार श्रीमह्या भारत आदिपर्वके अन्तर्गत विदुरागमनराज्यलम्भपर्वमें नगरनिर्माणविषयक दो सौ छठा अध्याय पूरा हुआ
iti prakāraṁ śrīmahābhārate ādiparvaṇi antargate vidurāgamanarājyalambhaparvaṇi nagaranirmāṇaviṣayakaḥ dviśataṣaṣṭho 'dhyāyaḥ pūrṇaḥ
Así concluye el capítulo ducentésimo sexto del Ādi Parva del sagrado Mahābhārata, dentro de la subsección sobre la llegada de Vidura y la obtención del reino, relativo al tema de la construcción de la ciudad. (Se trata de un colofón de cierre del capítulo y no de un avance de la narración.)
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
This line functions as a colophon: it emphasizes textual organization—parva, sub-parva, and chapter—rather than offering a direct moral instruction. Indirectly, it points to themes of orderly governance and civic organization through the chapter’s stated topic of city-construction.
No new narrative event occurs here. The statement simply announces that the chapter on city-construction, situated within the section about Vidura’s arrival and the attainment of the kingdom, has concluded.
