Portents, Pursuit to the Nalinī, and Yudhiṣṭhira’s Restraint Toward Bhīma
Saugandhika-padma Continuation
इस प्रकार श्रीमह्याभारत वनपर्वके अन्तर्गत तीर्थयात्रापर्वमें लोगशती र्थयात्राके प्रसंगमें गन्धमादन पर्वतपर हनुमानजी और भीमसेनका संवादविषयक एक सौ इक्यावनवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ
iti prakāraṃ śrīmahābhārate vanaparvaṇi antargate tīrthayātrāparvaṇi loṅgaśatīrthayātrā-prasaṅge gandhamādana-parvate hanūmān-jī ca bhīmasena-yoḥ saṃvāda-viṣayaka ekaśata-ekapañcāśattamo 'dhyāyaḥ samāptaḥ
ヴァイシャンパーヤナは語った。かくして、聖なる『マハーバーラタ』の「森の巻」(ヴァナ・パルヴァ)—とりわけ「巡礼の巻」(ティールタ・ヤートラー・パルヴァ)、巡礼譚のくだりにおいて—ガンダマーダナ山にて、ハヌマーンとビーマセーナの対話を述べる章は、第一百五十一章として終結する。物語はこの邂逅を道徳的・霊的教訓として示す。すなわち、力は謙虚さによって統御されねばならず、英雄の威力はダルマにかなうとき、また長老と模範への敬意に結ばれるとき、最も高い目的を得るのである。
वैशम्पायन उवाच
The colophon points to the Hanumān–Bhīma dialogue as an ethical lesson: physical might should be tempered by humility and guided by dharma; true greatness includes respect for exemplary elders and disciplined use of power.
This is a concluding notice (colophon) stating that, within the pilgrimage section of the Forest Book, the chapter about the conversation between Hanumān and Bhīmasena on Mount Gandhamādana has ended as the 151st chapter.
