भीष्मस्य शरवर्षः — Bhīṣma’s Arrow-Storm and Kṛṣṇa’s Impulse to Intervene
इस प्रकार श्रीमह्याभारत भीष्मपर्वके अन्तर्गत भीष्मवधपर्वमें भीष्य-दुर्योधनसंवादविषयक अद्वानबेवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ

サञ्जयは語った。かくして、尊崇される『マハーバーラタ』の「ビーシュマ・パルヴァ」において、ビーシュマの討死に関わる章段のうち、ビーシュマとドゥルヨーダナの対話を扱う第九十二章は終わる。ここに付された結語（コロフォン）は、この物語単位の閉幕を示し、迫り来る破局の影の下で忠告と義務が量られる戦の道義的重みを際立たせる。

Educational Q&A
As a colophon, the verse primarily signals closure rather than giving a new doctrinal teaching; ethically, it frames the preceding Bhīṣma–Duryodhana counsel within the larger dharmic tension of war—how advice, duty, and consequence converge as events move toward Bhīṣma’s fall.
Sanjaya marks the completion of a chapter in the Bhīṣma Parva, specifying that it concerned the Bhīṣma–Duryodhana dialogue and belonged to the Bhīṣma-vadha thematic section, thereby transitioning the listener to the next unit of the war narrative.
