Так, в «Шри Махабхарате», в «Ади-парве», в разделе «Вайвахика», завершается сто девяносто третья глава — о испытании Юдхиштхиры и прочих. Рассказчик торжественно обозначает переход, подчёркивая, что события устроены как намеренное испытание характера и поведения.

Educational Q&A
The closing notice frames the preceding events as a deliberate parīkṣā (test) of Yudhiṣṭhira and others, underscoring a Mahābhārata theme: dharma is clarified through trials that reveal inner disposition, restraint, and ethical choice.
This is a colophon-style concluding line: the narrator indicates that the chapter dealing with the examination of Yudhiṣṭhira and his companions has ended within the Vaivāhika portion of the Ādi Parva, marking a formal transition to what follows.
