Educational Q&A
This line is a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse; its function is to mark the conclusion of a chapter and locate it within the Mahābhārata’s parva and sub-parva structure, emphasizing orderly transmission and preservation of the narrative.
The text signals the end of Adhyāya 70, identified by the theme-title “Pāṇḍavāgamana” (the Pāṇḍavas’ arrival), within the Anugītā section of the Aśvamedhika Parva, as recited by Vaiśampāyana.
