Demikianlah, di dalam Mahābhārata, pada Bhīṣma Parva, dalam bagian yang dikenal sebagai Śrīmad Bhagavad Gītā, di antara ajaran-ajaran Upaniṣadik Bhagavad Gītā—tentang pengetahuan Brahman dan disiplin Yoga—dalam dialog Śrī Kṛṣṇa dan Arjuna, berakhirlah bab kesepuluh yang bernama “Vibhūti Yoga”.

Educational Q&A
This line is a colophon (closing formula), not a spoken doctrinal verse. It frames the Bhagavad Gītā as Upaniṣadic teaching (brahmavidyā) presented as a yoga-śāstra, and it names the chapter’s theme: Vibhūti Yoga—recognizing the Divine through its supreme manifestations, which supports devotion and steadiness of mind amid moral conflict.
The text is marking the conclusion of the tenth chapter of the Bhagavad Gītā within the Mahābhārata’s Bhīṣma Parva. It situates the teaching as part of the Kṛṣṇa–Arjuna dialogue on the battlefield context, and formally announces the chapter title “Vibhūti Yoga.”
