Educational Q&A
This verse is a colophon rather than a doctrinal statement: it emphasizes textual closure and context—placing Arjuna’s return within the Āśvamedhika Parva and the Anugītā section, which broadly frames post-war life as a return to dharma, restraint, and responsible kingship.
The text signals the completion of a chapter focused on Arjuna’s return. It functions as an editorial marker that the relevant adhyāya has ended within the larger structure of the Mahābhārata’s Āśvamedhika Parva.
