This is a chapter-colophon: it formally seals the teaching by naming the text-location and the topic—Daśamī-vrata observed through all twelve months—so the vow’s instructions can be preserved, cited, and practiced accurately.
Indirectly: by highlighting a recurring monthly vrata, it frames devotion as disciplined, time-bound worship (kāla-niyama) expressed through regular observance rather than a one-time act.
Kalpa/ritual-application and calendrical practice are implied: the Daśamī tithi-based observance across twelve months depends on correct lunar-day (tithi) reckoning used in vrata performance.
