Educational Q&A
As a colophon, the verse does not add new instruction; it signals closure of a dialogue unit. Ethically, it highlights that the Mahābhārata frames moral reflection through conversations in which rulers and family members confront duty, consequence, and lineage.
This is the chapter-ending marker stating that the 119th chapter (within this numbering) has concluded, located in the Ādi Parva’s Sambhava Parva, specifically in the section describing the dialogue between Pāṇḍu and Pṛthā (Kuntī).
