Draupadī’s Instruction on Marital Conduct and Household Discipline (चित्तग्रहण-उपदेश)
इति श्रीमहाभारते वनपर्वणि मार्कण्डेयसमास्यापर्वणि आज्ञिरसोपाख्यानेडग्निसमुद्धवे द्वाविंशत्यधिकद्विशततमो5ध्याय:
iti śrīmahābhārate vanaparvaṇi mārkaṇḍeyasamāsyāparvaṇi ājñirasopākhyāne ’gnisamuddhave dvāviṁśatyadhikadvīśatatamo ’dhyāyaḥ
Ainsi, dans le Śrī Mahābhārata, au sein du Vana Parva—dans la section résumant l’enseignement de Mārkaṇḍeya—dans l’épisode d’Ājñirasa concernant l’apparition d’Agni, s’achève le chapitre deux-cent-vingt-deux (222).
मार्कण्डेय उवाच
Educational Q&A
This line is a colophon rather than a teaching-verse: it signals closure and preserves the text’s organization—work, parva, sub-section, episode-title, and chapter number—helping readers locate and transmit the narrative accurately.
The chapter ends. The colophon states that the narration associated with Mārkaṇḍeya’s section, within the Ājñirasa episode about Agni’s emergence/arising, has reached the end of Chapter 222 in the Vana Parva.
