Educational Q&A
This is a colophon marking the end of a chapter; its implicit lesson is structural and reflective: war is not only valor but also organized strategy (vyūha), and the epic frames such tactical detail within a larger moral narrative.
Sanjaya signals that the chapter has concluded. The chapter’s stated topic is the formation of the Krauñca battle array, and this verse functions as the formal closing line in the Gita Press-style chapter ending.
