इति श्रीस्कांदे महापुराण एकाशीति साहस्र्यां संहितायां चतुर्थे काशीखंड उत्तरार्धे व्यासभुजस्तंभोनाम पंचनवतितमोऽध्यायः
iti śrīskāṃde mahāpurāṇa ekāśīti sāhasryāṃ saṃhitāyāṃ caturthe kāśīkhaṃḍa uttarārdhe vyāsabhujastaṃbhonāma paṃcanavatitamo'dhyāyaḥ
Demikianlah berakhir, dalam Śrī Skanda Mahāpurāṇa—dalam himpunan delapan puluh satu ribu śloka, pada saṃhitā keempat—di Kāśī Khaṇḍa (Uttarārdha), bab ke-95 bernama “Penahanan Lengan Vyāsa.”
Colophon / redactional marker (not a narrative speaker)
Listener: Recitation audience
Scene: Manuscript-style closing line: scribal flourish, chapter title highlighted, indicating the end of the ‘Vyāsabhuja-stambha’ chapter within Kāśī-khaṇḍa.
This is a colophon; its purpose is textual authentication and chapter identification rather than doctrine.
No single tīrtha is praised in the colophon; it situates the material within the Kāśī Khaṇḍa (Kāśī’s sacred geography).
None—this verse functions as an editorial/chapter-end marker.
