かくして、尊き『マハーバーラタ』の「シャーンティ・パルヴァ」—とりわけ「モークシャ・ダルマ」章段—において、ダクシャに関わる説話の中で語られた「シヴァ千名讃」（Śiva-sahasranāma）を主題とする第二百八十四章は終わりを告げる。この結語は、信愛と倫理に根ざした教示の一区切りが成ったことを示し、敬虔、内なる浄化、そして聖なる讃嘆による解脱の追求を強調する。

Educational Q&A
The chapter’s colophon indicates a teaching unit centered on Śiva’s sahasranāma (thousand names), presenting devotion and sacred praise as a dharmic means for inner purification and orientation toward mokṣa (liberation), consistent with the Mokṣa-dharma section of Śānti Parva.
This is the formal closing statement of the chapter: it announces that the Mahābhārata’s Śānti Parva, within the Mokṣa-dharma portion, has concluded a chapter whose subject is the Śiva-sahasranāma hymn, connected with an account involving Dakṣa.
