Educational Q&A
As a chapter-colophon, the verse itself does not add new doctrine; it frames the completed discourse as ‘Vasudeva’s consolation,’ highlighting the ethical aim of restoring composure, clarity, and dharmic steadiness after distress.
Vaiśampāyana marks the end of the sixty-first chapter within the Anugītā section of the Āśvamedhika Parva, indicating that the portion dealing with consoling Vasudeva has concluded and the text is moving onward.
