Educational Q&A

This line is a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse; its ethical significance is structural: it closes a chapter within the Rājadharma instruction, emphasizing that the discourse is organized as formal guidance on righteous kingship and governance.

Vaiśampāyana marks the completion of the forty-seventh chapter in the Śānti Parva’s Rājadharmānuśāsana section, specifically a chapter centered on Bhīṣma’s praise and discussion relating to the king, before the text proceeds to the next unit.
