मनुरुवाच — इन्द्रिय-मनः-ज्ञान-क्रमः
Manu on the hierarchy of senses, mind, and knowledge
इस प्रकार श्रीमहाभारत शान्तिपर्वके अन्तर्गत गोक्षधर्मपर्वमें ध्यानयोगका वर्णनविषयक एक सौ पज्चानबेवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ

Assim termina o capítulo centésimo nonagésimo quinto, que descreve o Yoga da meditação (Dhyāna-yoga), na seção Gokṣa-dharma dentro do Śānti Parva do Śrī Mahābhārata. (Este colofão final assinala a conclusão de um ensinamento ético e contemplativo contínuo, enquadrando a meditação como disciplina integrante do dharma e do governo interior após as devastações da guerra.)
भीष्म उवाच
The verse is a colophon marking the completion of a chapter devoted to dhyāna-yoga (meditative discipline). Its core message is structural rather than doctrinal: it frames meditation as a recognized and authoritative component of dharma-teaching within Śānti Parva’s post-war ethical instruction.
This line functions as an editorial/narrative closure: it announces that the chapter on the description of meditation-yoga has concluded within the Gokṣa-dharma section of Śānti Parva. It signals a transition point to the next unit of Bhīṣma’s instruction.
