かくして『聖マハーバーラタ』の「ウディヨーガ・パルヴァ」—とりわけ主の使節としての外交行に関わる章段—において、「ヴィドゥラの言葉」と名づけられた第百三十章はここに終わる。この結語(コロフォン)は、戦が避けがたくなる前に破局を退け、ダルマを護らんとして差し出された、決断の時におけるヴィドゥラの道徳的・政治的警告としてその諫言を位置づける。

Educational Q&A

As a colophon, the verse does not add new instruction but signals that Vidura’s counsel has concluded. Its ethical force lies in framing the preceding discourse as authoritative guidance offered to preserve dharma through wise policy and restraint before conflict escalates.

The text marks the end of a chapter in the Udyoga Parva, within the Bhagavad-yāna section, identifying it as ‘Vidura’s Speech.’ This situates Vidura’s admonitions within the broader lead-up to the Kurukṣetra war, amid attempts at negotiation and prevention of war.
