Demikianlah berakhir bab ke-102 Mahabharata dalam Shanti Parva, di bawah bahagian ajaran tentang kewajipan raja, yang menghuraikan prinsip-prinsip kepimpinan ketenteraan. Kolofon penutup ini menandai selesainya pengajaran tentang bagaimana seorang panglima harus dipandu oleh dasar yang berdisiplin dan perilaku yang benar menurut dharma.

As a colophon, the line chiefly signals completion: it frames the chapter’s subject as senānīti—principles of military command—within the broader instruction on rājadharma, implying that even warfare-related leadership is to be governed by disciplined policy and dharmic restraint.
The text is closing the chapter: it announces that the 102nd chapter on the description of senānīti, situated in the Shanti Parva’s Rājadharma instruction section, has concluded (traditionally under Bhīṣma’s discourse to Yudhiṣṭhira).
