Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon: it does not introduce a new teaching but marks the completion of a chapter within Bhīṣma’s instruction on rājadharma (the ethical duties and governance principles of a king).

What is happening in the narrative?

No new event occurs here; the text formally closes the chapter, situating it within the Śānti Parva and the Rājadharmānuśāsana section of the Mahābhārata.
