Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse; it signals the completion of a chapter whose theme is overcoming “durgīti” (evil conduct) within the broader instruction on rājadharma (the ethical duties of rulers).

What is happening in the narrative?

The text formally closes Adhyāya 110, titled “Durgītitaraṇa,” within the Rājadharmānuśāsana portion of the Śānti Parva, marking the end of that instructional unit.
