Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon rather than a teaching verse; its value is contextual: it frames the narrative within the Udyoga Parva’s ethical project of striving for a just resolution through diplomacy (the Lord’s embassy) before resorting to war.

What is happening in the narrative?

The text is marking the end of a chapter: it states that the eighty-fifth chapter concludes within the Udyoga Parva, in the Bhagavad-yāna section, specifically in the episode connected with the journey and the construction of an assembly hall.
