Shloka 161
इन्द्रस्य पाण्डवैः समागमः
Indra’s Meeting with the Pāṇḍavas

かくして『聖マハーバーラタ』において、ヴァナ・パルヴァ（森住篇）のうち、夜叉との戦いを語る段にある、クベーラ（Kubera）拝謁の章—第百六十一章—はここに終わる。この結語は一連の出来事の完結を記し、神なる存在との抗争から、北方を護り財宝を司るクベーラとの邂逅がもつ道徳的・霊性的意義へと物語が移ることを告げる。

Educational Q&A
As a colophon, the verse does not present a direct doctrinal teaching; its ethical function is structural: it closes an episode of confrontation with Yakṣas and frames the subsequent significance of Kubera’s appearance—suggesting that encounters with divine powers (including wealth and authority) are to be understood within dharmic order and narrative consequence rather than mere spectacle.
This is the formal closing line of the chapter: it states that, within Vana Parva and the Yakṣa-battle episode, the chapter dealing with the vision/meeting of Kubera has concluded, identifying it as the 161st chapter.
