かくして、尊崇される『マハーバーラタ』のシャーンティ・パルヴァ(寂静篇)—とりわけラージャダルマ・アヌシャーサナ(王法訓戒)の部—において、「リシャバ・ギーター」(Ṛṣabha-gītā)と称される教えを扱う第百二十八章は結了した。
भीष्म उवाच
This line is a colophon marking the completion of a chapter whose subject is the Ṛṣabha-gītā within the Rājadharma (duties of kings) instructional material of the Śānti Parva; it signals a transition point in the didactic exposition rather than adding new doctrine in itself.
The text formally closes the chapter: it states that, in the Mahābhārata’s Śānti Parva—within the Rājadharmānuśāsana section—the 128th chapter on the topic of Ṛṣabha-gītā has ended.
