かくして『聖マハーバーラタ』の『アヌシャーサナ・パルヴァ』(教誡篇)—布施のダルマを説く章段—において、「ドゥルヴァーサの乞食(施しの請い)」と題する第159章は終わる。この結語(コロフォン)は本話を、聖者の要求に応じる際の寛仁と正しい作法を教えるものとして位置づけ、布施は敬虔をもって、怨みなく捧げるべきことを強調している。
वायुदेव उवाच
The colophon situates the chapter within dāna-dharma, implying that the episode’s ethical focus is on proper giving—meeting requests for alms with respect, generosity, and steadiness of mind, rather than with irritation or pride.
This line is a concluding colophon: it marks the end of a chapter in the Anuśāsana Parva and names it “Durvāsā’s Request for Alms,” indicating that the preceding narrative centered on Durvāsā approaching for bhikṣā and the moral implications of the response.
