Educational Q&A
This line is a colophon marking the end of a chapter; it frames the preceding material as instruction on āpaddharma—ethical conduct and decision-making under distress—delivered through the Indota–Parīkṣit dialogue within the Śānti Parva’s broader peace-and-dharma discourse.
The text is concluding a unit: it announces that the 150th chapter of the Āpaddharma section (within Śānti Parva) has been completed, specifying that its topic was the conversation between Indota and King Parīkṣit.
