Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This verse is a colophon rather than a doctrinal statement: it signals that the chapter’s instruction—framed under dāna-dharma and specifically vivāha-dharma, titled Yamagāthā—has concluded, emphasizing the text’s organization of ethical teachings within dharma.

What is happening in the narrative?

The discourse attributed to Bhīṣma reaches a formal stopping point: the editor’s/reciter’s closing formula identifies the work (Mahābhārata), the parva (Anuśāsana), the internal section (dāna-dharma), the topic (vivāha-dharma), and the chapter title (Yamagāthā), marking the end of the forty-fifth chapter.
