Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is not a teaching verse but a colophon: it signals the formal end of a chapter and situates it within the Mahābhārata’s book (Udyoga Parva) and subsection (Yāna–Sandhi), associated here with Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s discourse.

What is happening in the narrative?

The narrative action pauses: the text is marking that the sixty-fifth chapter has concluded within the Udyoga Parva’s negotiation/mission context, framing the preceding material as part of Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s stated portion.
