विदुरस्य कृष्णं प्रति शमोपदेशः
Vidura’s Counsel to Krishna on the Limits of Peace
इति श्रीमहा भारते उद्योगपर्वणि भगवद्यानपर्वणि श्रीकृष्णदुर्योधनसंवादे एकनवतितमो<ध्याय:
iti śrīmahābhārate udyogaparvaṇi bhagavadyānaparvaṇi śrīkṛṣṇaduryodhanasaṃvāde ekanavatitamo 'dhyāyaḥ
Так завершается девяносто первая глава Удьога-парвы «Шри Махабхараты», в разделе о посольстве Господа, а именно в беседе Шри Кришны и Дурьодханы. Эта приписка отмечает завершение данного фрагмента, подчёркивая, что совет Кришны и ответ Дурьодханы представлены как решающий нравственный и политический перелом на пути к войне.
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
As a colophon, the line itself teaches by framing the preceding exchange as a complete moral episode: Kṛṣṇa’s dharmic counsel and Duryodhana’s stance are presented as a decisive ethical test in which diplomacy is offered before violence, and refusal of righteous compromise becomes a cause for inevitable conflict.
The narrator signals the close of the chapter and identifies its placement: within Udyoga Parva, in the Bhagavad-yāna section, concluding the Kṛṣṇa–Duryodhana dialogue. It functions as an editorial marker that the diplomatic conversation has reached a formal endpoint.
