This line is a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it frames the preceding material as a dharma-teaching delivered through an upākhyāna (illustrative tale). Its function is to mark closure and to situate the lesson within Śānti Parva’s broader ethical and governance-oriented instruction.
The text announces the completion of the chapter dealing with the Ujjhavṛttikā episode within the Gokṣadharma section of Śānti Parva. It is an editorial/narrative boundary marker indicating that Bhīṣma’s current unit of discourse has concluded.
