Educational Q&A
As a colophon, the verse itself does not state a new doctrine; it marks the completion of the Tulādhāra–Jājali teaching unit within Mokṣa-dharma, whose broader thrust is liberation-oriented ethics—inner purity and right conduct as the basis of spiritual progress.
The text is closing a chapter: Bhīṣma’s discourse (within Śānti Parva) has presented the dialogue between Tulādhāra and Jājali, and this line formally signals that the chapter has ended and identifies its placement in the Mahābhārata’s structure.
