Educational Q&A
This line is a colophon marking the close of a chapter and locating it within the Mahābhārata’s instructional framework—here, the Dāna-dharma (ethics of giving). It signals that the surrounding material is to be read as normative guidance on righteous conduct, especially generosity and its proper practice.
The text is concluding a unit described as the ‘dialogue between Pavana (Vāyu) and Arjuna’ and formally announcing the chapter’s end and its placement within Anuśāsana Parva and the Dāna-dharma section.
