Educational Q&A
This line functions as a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: its purpose is to mark the completion of a chapter and to situate it within the Śānti Parva’s dharma-oriented instruction, specifically the Ujjhavṛttikā illustrative tale within the Gokṣadharma section.
The text signals closure: it announces that the chapter dealing with the Ujjhavṛttikā upākhyāna has concluded within the Śānti Parva, preparing the reader for the next chapter or thematic unit.
