Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon marking the end of a chapter; it frames the teaching context as dāna-dharma (the ethics of giving) delivered through the Umā–Maheśvara dialogue, emphasizing that the surrounding instruction belongs to the moral discipline of generosity and righteous conduct.

What is happening in the narrative?

The text is concluding: it formally states that, within the Mahābhārata’s Anuśāsana Parva and its dāna-dharma section, the chapter connected with the dialogue between Umā and Maheśvara has ended (the 142nd chapter as counted in this internal sequence/colophon tradition).
