Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it signals the completion of a chapter within the Mokṣa-dharma portion of the Śānti Parva, framing the preceding discourse as part of the Gokapilīya illustrative narrative connected with liberation (mokṣa) and dharma.

What is happening in the narrative?

The text is formally closing the chapter: it identifies the larger work (Mahābhārata), the parva (Śānti), the subsection (Mokṣa-dharma), and the episode (Gokapilīya), and then states that the 268th chapter has concluded.
