Educational Q&A
As a colophon, the verse does not teach through direct instruction; it frames the ethical gravity of the war by naming decisive acts—retaliation, strategic prowess, and the relentless consequences of vows and enmity—reminding the reader that major outcomes in the epic arise from choices bound to dharma, duty, and prior actions.
This is the formal closing line of the chapter: it situates the chapter within Droṇa Parva and the Jayadratha-slaying section, and it summarizes key events covered—Vinda and Anuvinda being slain and Arjuna producing a ‘lake’ through his arrows—before marking the chapter’s end.
