Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is not a teaching verse but a colophon: it formally closes the chapter and identifies its placement within the Mahābhārata’s Aśvamedhika Parva, specifically the Anugītā section and the Brahmin’s didactic songs.

What is happening in the narrative?

The narrative action pauses here: the text signals the completion of the thirty-first chapter of the Brahmin’s discourse within the Anugītā, serving as an editorial/structural marker rather than advancing events.
