The closing colophon highlights that rājadharma includes disciplined, methodical, and ethically grounded management of the treasury (kośa). Prosperity is treated as a tool of governance that must be gathered and maintained through proper means to support stability, protection, and public welfare.
This is a concluding statement (colophon) marking the end of a chapter in the Śānti Parva’s rājadharma instruction. It signals that the preceding discussion has completed its treatment of the methods of treasury accumulation and management.
