Uttanka’s Viśvarūpa Request and the ‘Uttanka Clouds’ Boon (उत्तङ्क-विष्वरूप-दर्शनम्)
इति श्रीमहाभारते आश्वमेधिके पर्वणि अनुगीतापर्वणि उत्तड़कोपाख्याने कृष्णवाक्ये चतुष्पञ्चाशत्तमो<ध्याय:
iti śrīmahābhārate āśvamedhike parvaṇi anugītāparvaṇi uttaḍakopākhyāne kṛṣṇavākye catuṣpañcāśattamo 'dhyāyaḥ
Так, в «Шри Махабхарате», в Ашвамедхика-парве — а именно в разделе Анугиты —, в упакхьяне об Уттадаке, изложенном как речь Кришны, завершается пятьдесят четвёртая глава.
वायुदेव उवाच
This line itself does not state a teaching; it is a colophon. Its function is to frame the preceding material as part of Kṛṣṇa’s Anugītā instruction, where ethical and dharmic guidance is conveyed through discourse and illustrative episodes such as the Uttaḍaka narrative.
The chapter is being formally closed. The colophon identifies the textual location (Aśvamedhika Parva, Anugītā section), the embedded episode (Uttaḍaka-upākhyāna), and the speaker-context (Kṛṣṇa’s discourse), signaling the end of Adhyāya 54.
