Educational Q&A
This verse is a colophon rather than a doctrinal statement: it signals the completion of a chapter centered on Vidura’s counsel. In context, it underscores the Mahābhārata’s ethical emphasis on wise speech, dharma-guided statecraft, and the attempt to resolve conflict through negotiation before resorting to war.
The text is closing the sixty-fourth chapter of the Udyoga Parva’s Yāna–Saṃdhi section, identifying it as the chapter containing Vidura’s words. It functions as an editorial/narrative boundary marker indicating that Vidura’s discourse for this chapter has concluded.
