かくして『聖マハーバーラタ』のドローナ・パルヴァ、ことに「ジャヤドラタ殺し」の段において、サーティヤキの突入を主題とする第百二十一章は終わる。巻末の詞として、これは戦記の推移を告げるしるしである。ひとまとまりの行動が閉じられ、復讐と義務（ダルマ）、そして増大する戦の代価に結びつく後続の出来事が、重い道義の影を携えて迫り来ることを示す。

Educational Q&A
As a colophon rather than a didactic verse, it teaches indirectly: actions in war are organized into accountable narrative units, and each completed episode carries ethical residue—duty pursued through violence (especially vengeance-driven duty) advances the plot but also deepens the moral gravity of the conflict.
This line marks the formal close of a chapter in the Droṇa Parva, within the Jayadratha-slaying sequence, identifying the chapter’s focus as Sātyaki’s entry/advance. It functions as an editorial/narrative boundary rather than describing a new action.
