Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it signals the closure of a Mokṣa-dharma teaching unit by formally naming the larger work (Mahābhārata), the parva (Śānti), the subsection (Mokṣa-dharma), and the embedded tale (Ujjha-vṛtti Upākhyāna). Its function is to frame and authenticate the transmission of ethical and liberation-oriented instruction.

What is happening in the narrative?

The narrative pauses to mark an ending: the Ujjha-vṛtti episode within Mokṣa-dharma concludes here, and the chapter count is stated. It is a formal editorial closure indicating that the Brāhmaṇa speaker’s segment has reached its endpoint.
