Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse; its function is to mark the close of a chapter and locate it within the Mahābhārata’s nested structure (parva, sub-parvan/episode, and speaker context).

What is happening in the narrative?

The text signals the conclusion of the chapter in the Vana Parva, specifically within the ‘Kuṇḍalāharaṇa’ episode, and notes that the preceding narration is attributed to Sūrya (the Sun-god) in the printed framing.
