Udyoga-parva Adhyāya 30: Sañjaya’s Departure and Yudhiṣṭhira’s Commission of Greetings
इति श्रीमहा भारते उद्योगपर्वणि सञ्जययानपर्वणि युधिष्ठिरसंदेशे एकत्रिंशो 5ध्याय:
iti śrīmahābhārate udyogaparvaṇi sañjayayānaparvaṇi yudhiṣṭhirasandeśe ekatriṃśo 'dhyāyaḥ
Assim, no venerável Mahābhārata, dentro do Udyoga Parva—em particular na seção referente à jornada de Sañjaya—conclui-se aqui a mensagem de Yudhiṣṭhira, encerrando o trigésimo primeiro capítulo.
युधिछिर उवाच
This line functions as a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it frames the ethical and political discourse as part of Yudhiṣṭhira’s message within the larger effort toward peace and rightful conduct (dharma) before war.
The text signals the close of a chapter in the Udyoga Parva, identifying the sub-section as Sañjaya’s journey and noting that the chapter completes the portion labeled as Yudhiṣṭhira’s message.
