As a chapter-colophon, the line chiefly marks completion, but it also frames the episode’s ethical emphasis: krodha (anger), even when arising from loyalty or perceived injustice, must be governed by restraint and wise counsel to preserve dharma and social harmony.
This is the formal closing statement for Ādi Parva, chapter 219, within the Subhadrā-abduction episode, specifying that the chapter’s topic is Balarāma’s anger and that the chapter has concluded.
