कृतावर्ते महातैले मथ्यन्ते पापकर्मिणः ।
एष ते विस्तरेणोक्तस्तप्तकुम्भो मया पितः ॥
kṛtāvarte mahātaile mathyante pāpakarmiṇaḥ / eṣa te vistareṇoktas taptakumbho mayā pitaḥ

The passage closes by emphasizing completeness and certainty: karmic results ‘churn’ the doer until the force of the deed is spent, motivating dharmic restraint and atonement.
A moral-educational episode (upākhyāna-like didactic material) supporting dharma; not one of the five lakṣaṇas.
Whirlpools represent saṃsāric turbulence; the ‘great oil’ is the medium of accumulated vāsanās, in which the psyche is agitated until clarity is regained through purification.
