Ainsi s’achève le vingt-huitième chapitre de la section Dānadharma de l’Anuśāsana Parva du Śrī Mahābhārata, consacré au dialogue entre Indra et le sage connaisseur (Matijña). Ce colophon final marque l’achèvement d’un enseignement portant sur l’éthique du don et sur le discernement qui guide la générosité conforme au dharma.

This line functions as a colophon marking the completion of a chapter within the Dānadharma section; it frames the preceding material as instruction on the dharma of giving, guided by discernment (mati) and ethical judgment.
Bhīṣma’s discourse reaches the end of a chapter that presented a dialogue between Indra and Matijña; the text formally closes that unit by naming the parva/section and the chapter number.
