This line functions as a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it emphasizes disciplined transmission of history—marking boundaries of narration, preserving textual order, and reminding the listener that the war-account is being carefully reported within a larger ethical epic framework.
The narration pauses formally: the text announces the completion of a chapter within Bhīṣma Parva, specifically within the episode labeled ‘Bhīṣma’s slaying,’ and situates it in the account of the second day of fighting, as spoken in Sañjaya’s reporting voice.
