Educational Q&A
The colophon highlights that the continuation of lineage—especially royal succession—is framed as a matter of dharma and authorized consent (anujñāna), not merely private impulse; legitimacy and ethical sanction are emphasized in the narrative’s presentation of Kuntī’s motherhood.
This is the chapter-ending colophon stating that the section dealing with the permission/authorization connected to the begetting of Kuntī’s sons has concluded, and it identifies the textual location: Mahābhārata → Ādi Parva → Sambhava Parva, chapter 121.
