Thus ends the three hundred and seventh chapter of the Vana Parva of the revered Mahābhārata, within the section known as the ‘Episode of the Removal of the Earrings,’ dealing with the meeting of Sūrya and Kuntī. This closing colophon signals the completion of a narrative unit that frames the ethical tensions of divine boon, secrecy, and the far-reaching consequences of extraordinary births and choices.
