Demikianlah, dalam Śrī Mahābhārata, di dalam Śānti Parvan dan bahagian Mokṣa-dharma, berakhirlah bab ke-213—yang berkenaan ajaran kerohanian yang terkait dengan Vārṣṇeya (Śrī Kṛṣṇa). Dengan demikian tamatlah bab tentang tuntunan rohani yang berhubung dengan Kṛṣṇa dalam bahagian Mokṣa-dharma bagi Śānti Parvan.

Educational Q&A
This is a colophon marking the end of a chapter whose subject is adhyātma (spiritual/inner teaching) connected with Vārṣṇeya, i.e., Śrī Kṛṣṇa, situated within the Mokṣa-dharma portion of the Śānti Parvan—framing the discourse as oriented toward liberation and inner realization.
No new narrative action occurs here; the line functions as a formal closing statement (chapter-end colophon) indicating that the 213rd chapter of the Mokṣa-dharma section in the Śānti Parvan has been completed.
