Duryodhana’s Account of Gandharva Defeat and the Pandavas’ Intervention (दुर्योधनवर्णितो गन्धर्वसंग्रामः)
इस प्रकार श्रीमहाभारत वनपर्वके अन्तर्गत द्रौपदीसत्यभागासंवादपर्वमें श्रीकृष्णका द्वारकाको प्रस्थानविषयक दो सौ पैंतीसवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ
Iti prakāraṃ Śrīmahābhārate Vanaparvake antargataṃ Draupadī-satyabhāṣā-saṃvāda-parvaṇi Śrīkṛṣṇasya Dvārakāṃ prati prasthāna-viṣayakaḥ dviśata-pañcatriṃśattamo 'dhyāyaḥ pūrṇaḥ.
かくして、『シュリー・マハーバーラタ』森林篇(ヴァナ・パルヴァ)における、ドラウパディーとサティヤバーマーの対話の章、すなわちシュリー・クリシュナがドヴァーラカーへ出立することを述べた第二百三十五章は終わる。
वैशम्पायन उवाच
As a colophon, the verse does not teach through direct instruction; it highlights a dharmic rhythm in the epic: counsel and moral reflection culminate in responsible action. Kṛṣṇa’s departure underscores the ethic of timely duty—returning to one’s obligations after completing a necessary exchange of guidance.
The narrator signals the end of a chapter/section within the Vana Parva: the dialogue unit involving Draupadī and Satyabhāmā has reached a close, and the specific episode noted is Śrī Kṛṣṇa setting out for Dvārakā. It functions as a formal transition marker to the next narrative segment.
