かくして『聖マハーバーラタ』において、『森の巻』（ヴァナ・パルヴァ）のうち、ドラウパディー略奪の段に属し、ドゥルヴァーサ（Durvāsā）の副譚（upākhyāna）を語る第二百六十三章はここに終わる。これは章末の結語（コロフォン）であり、章の閉幕を示すとともに、物語をより大きな倫理の枠へと位置づける——ドラウパディーの危難と、艱難の中での行いの試練。ドゥルヴァーサの来訪はしばしば、もてなし、克己、そしてダルマ（dharma）を試す徴となる。

As a colophon, the verse primarily frames the episode: it highlights that the surrounding narrative concerns Draupadī’s crisis and Durvāsā’s episode, contexts in which dharma is tested—especially through restraint, right conduct, and the obligations of hospitality under pressure.
This line does not advance the plot; it formally closes the chapter and identifies its placement: in the Vana Parva, within the Draupadī-abduction section, specifically in the Durvāsā sub-episode, marking the end of the 263rd chapter.
