Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon marking the close of a chapter in Bhīṣma’s instruction on rājadharma (royal duty). By naming the chapter “Crossing Difficult Straits,” it frames kingship as an ethical discipline of navigating crises through dharma-guided judgment.

What is happening in the narrative?

The text is concluding: it identifies the work (Mahābhārata), the larger book (Śānti Parva), the internal section (instruction on royal duties), and the chapter number and title, signaling the end of that adhyāya.
