Educational Q&A
As a chapter-colophon, the verse itself teaches through framing: it highlights that Gāndhārī’s speech belongs to the ethical and dharmic discourse of the peace mission preceding war, underscoring the epic’s emphasis on counsel, restraint, and responsibility before violence becomes inevitable.
Vaiśaṃpāyana signals the formal conclusion of the chapter: the episode centered on Gāndhārī’s words within the Bhagavad-yāna section of the Udyoga Parva is complete, marking a transition point in the lead-up to the Kurukṣetra conflict.
