Educational Q&A
As a colophon, the verse does not teach through direct instruction; it frames the episode ethically by situating acts of valor and killing within the epic’s larger inquiry into dharma—how duty, loyalty, and strategic necessity in war carry grave moral consequences.
This is the chapter-ending colophon: it announces that the chapter concludes within Droṇa Parva, specifically in the Jayadratha-slaying section, highlighting Sātyaki’s entry into the fray and describing Droṇa’s martial prowess as key narrative focuses.
