Educational Q&A
This line is a colophon marking the close of a chapter in the Mokṣa-dharma section; its function is to frame the preceding teaching as part of a liberation-oriented discourse transmitted through a sage-to-sage dialogue (Bhṛgu and Bharadvāja).
The text signals completion of the chapter: within Śānti Parva’s Mokṣa-dharma portion, the Bhṛgu–Bharadvāja conversation segment reaches its chapter-end, serving as an editorial/narrative boundary rather than a new spoken instruction.
