Educational Q&A
As a chapter-colophon, the verse primarily teaches how the epic frames events within a moral-historical structure: battles are not isolated feats but parts of a larger dharmic narrative, where duty, courage, and consequence are tracked and remembered with formal closure.
This line signals the end of the chapter: it identifies the larger book (Bhīṣma Parva), the relevant episode (Bhīṣma’s slaying section), and the immediate focus (the fight between Alambuṣā and Abhimanyu), concluding the one-hundred-and-first chapter.
