Nāvyāśrama-nirmāṇa and Ṛśyaśṛṅga’s Distraction (नाव्याश्रमनिर्माणम्—ऋश्यशृङ्गस्य विचलनम्)

Devanagari script

इस प्रकार श्रीमह्ााभारत वनपर्वके अन्तर्गत तीर्थयात्रापर्वमें लोमशतीर्थयात्राके प्रसंगमें ऋष्यशूंगोपाख्यानविषयक एक सौ ग्यारहवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ

Transliteration

Iti prakāraḥ Śrīmahābhārata-Vanaparvaṇi antargate Tīrthayātrāparvaṇi Lomaśatīrthayātrā-prasaṅge Ṛṣyaśṛṅgopākhyāna-viṣayaka ekaśata-ekādaśo 'dhyāyaḥ pūrṇaḥ.

Translation

Thus ends the one hundred and eleventh chapter of the Mahābhārata’s Vana Parva, within the Tīrtha-yātrā Parva, in the context of Lomāśa’s pilgrimage narrative, dealing with the episode of Ṛṣyaśṛṅga. The chapter’s conclusion signals a transition: the sacred journey continues, and the listener is invited to carry forward the ethical resonance of the tale—how purity of conduct, disciplined life, and the power of righteous influence can shape events and restore order.
