Nakula–Śakuni Duel and the Night Battle; Śikhaṇḍin–Kṛpa Engagement (नकुल-शकुनियुद्धं तथा रात्रियुद्धवर्णनम्)
इस प्रकार श्रीमहाभारत द्रोणपर्वके अन्तर्गत जयद्रथवधपर्वमें सात्यकि और अजुनिका परस्पर साक्षात्कारविषयक एक सौ इकतालीसवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ
iti prakāraḥ śrīmahābhārate droṇaparvake antargataṃ jayadrathavadhaparvaṇi sātyaki-arjunayoḥ paraspara-sākṣātkāra-viṣayakaḥ ekaśata-ekacatvāriṃśattamo 'dhyāyaḥ pūrṇaḥ
サンジャヤは語った。かくして『聖マハーバーラタ』ドローナ・パルヴァ、ジャヤドラタ討伐の章段において、サーティヤキとアルジュナの相互の邂逅を述べる第百四十一章は終わった。この結語は、戦の道義的圧力が極まる決定的瞬間を刻む。盟友は混乱のただ中で再会し、共に立てた誓願と義務を守るため、戦場が絆と目的を断ち切らんと迫る中にあっても、アダルマに抗する決意を新たにするのである。

Educational Q&A
Even amid the disorienting violence of war, dharma is sustained through steadfast duty and loyal cooperation: allies must reunite, communicate, and act with shared purpose to prevent chaos from eroding righteous resolve.
This is a concluding colophon stating that the chapter has ended. It identifies the placement (Droṇa Parva, within the Jayadratha-slaying episode) and the chapter’s topic: the face-to-face meeting of Sātyaki and Arjuna.
