Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon marking the close of a chapter within the section on dāna-dharma (the ethics of giving). Its function is to frame the preceding discourse as authoritative instruction on charitable duty.

What is happening in the narrative?

The narrative pauses for a formal closing formula: it identifies the larger work (Mahābhārata), the parva (Anuśāsana), the sub-section (Dāna-dharma), and the chapter title (Hastikūṭa), stating that the 105th chapter has concluded.
