Sāṃkhya–Yoga Clarification
इति श्रीमहाभारते शान्तिपर्वणि मोक्षधर्मपर्वणि पराशरगीतायां पजञ्चनवत्यधिकद्धिशततमो<ध्याय:
iti śrīmahābhārate śāntiparvaṇi mokṣadharmaparvaṇi parāśaragītāyāṃ pañcanavatyadhika-dviśatatamo 'dhyāyaḥ
Así, en el Śrī Mahābhārata, dentro del Śānti Parvan—en particular, en la sección Mokṣa-dharma—concluye el capítulo ducentésimo nonagésimo quinto, conocido como la Parāśara-gītā. Este colofón marca el cierre de un discurso doctrinal atribuido al sabio Parāśara, situado en la reflexión ética y liberadora más amplia del Mahābhārata tras la guerra.
पराशर उवाच
Educational Q&A
This line is a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it signals the completion of a Mokṣa-dharma teaching unit called the Parāśara-gītā within the Śānti Parvan, framing the discourse as guidance toward liberation and right conduct.
The text is closing a chapter: it formally records that the Mahābhārata’s Śānti Parvan, in its Mokṣa-dharma portion, has reached the end of Adhyāya 295, associated with the sage Parāśara’s instruction.
