Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This passage is not a moral instruction but a colophon: it marks the formal completion of the Droṇa Parva and preserves editorial/prosodic information about how verses in larger metres are counted as anuṣṭubh-equivalents for numbering.

What is happening in the narrative?

The narrator Sañjaya signals the close of the Droṇa Parva. In the Gita Press presentation, this closing line also notes metrical counting conventions and the verse-numbering basis in the North Indian text tradition.
