Adhyāya 123 — Droṇa’s Pedagogy: Arjuna’s Preeminence, Ekalavya’s Self-Training, and the Bhāsa-Lakṣya Trial
इस प्रकार श्रीमह्याभारत आदिपर्वके अन्तर्गत सम्भवपर्वमें कुन्तीको पुत्रोत्पत्तिके लिये आदेशविषयक एक सौ इक्कीसवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ
iti prakāraṃ śrī-mahābhārate ādiparvake antargata-sambhava-parvaṇi kuntīṃ prati putrotpatti-hetor ādeśa-viṣayaka ekaśata-ekaviṃśatitamo 'dhyāyaḥ samāptaḥ
かくして、尊き『マハーバーラタ』のアーディ・パルヴァに属するサンバヴァ章、第百二十一章は終わる。内容は、クンティーに対して子（男子）をもうけることを命じた指示に関するものであり、王統の継承、義務、そして王族の女性に課される倫理的重圧を浮き彫りにする一段である。

The colophon highlights dynastic duty as a major ethical pressure in royal life: the continuation of lineage is treated as a responsibility framed by dharma, even when it places difficult demands on individuals—here, specifically on Kuntī.
This is an end-of-chapter colophon stating that the 121st chapter in the Sambhava section of the Ādi Parva has concluded, and that its subject concerned an instruction directed to Kuntī regarding the production of sons.
